Ha ha! Painfully fucking stupid. Anyone who thinks the UN legislates laws for Americans should definately not be trusted with a gun. Not like the US has ever been inclined to abide by the UN anyway. We are the greatest rogue nation of all time.

Still, i gotta hand it to 'em. It can't be easy to vote for Bush/Cheney while portraying Kofi Annan as a despot. touche, retards.

Those silly gun nuts. Don't they know the government will protect them from all possible dangers and they should always feel safe everywhere?

The point is that, before using inflamatory language, Sloggers need to take into consideration that a significant number of their readers are "Gun Nuts."

Write an article about how LaPierre is bamboozling people that trust him, while remaining respectful of normal gun owners, and there's a lot less anomosity amongst the readership.

See what I mean? Paranoid. I forgot to mention persecution complex.

For the record, I didn't use "inflamatory language" against anyone except the idiots who are writing letters to the U.N. over this ridiculous non-issue. Also for the record, I don't like guns, and I don't think you should have any.

D, poor D, confusing masculinity with firearms.

I grew up in the country, and know how to handle a gun. I have two rifles and a pistol. But I also have a knowledge of the world around me, and know that the UN has nothing to do with gun regulations ANYWHERE, particularly in the US. I also realize that the GOP, despite talking about it ad nauseum, would never protect gun owners, and the dems will never take guns away.

Too often I find myself embarassed by many of my fellow gun owners. I won't call these people sportsmen because they're not. They're just paranoid whiny victims who glom onto conservatism because Reagan made it OK to hate.

They're the best arguement for stringent gun controls there are. Just as Paris Hilton is the poster child for retaining the estate tax.

So, anyone want to take the bet that, come July 5th, LaPierre will claim his hysterical rantings actually PREVENTED a nefarious U.N. Black Helicopter-enforced ban on U.S. gun ownership?

What bothers me, is that if you are suspecting a government body plans to take away your guns, I would think you would expect it to be the one ignoring the first and second amendments.

UN is a red herring, because if any group was wanting to de-arm Americans, it would be the current administration.

Oops, I meant first and fourth amendments, not second.

Read the proceedings. There are already several entries encouraging "next steps" toward outright banning of firearms.

Most people killed by small arms are killed by their own governments. Gun bans make that easier to accomplish.

Gosh it sure looks like every one who writes a comment is a gun hating liberal, but then again what can one expect from Seattle? Note how you slander, lie, distort, and use basically no facts in your arguments. Good luck if you are car jacked, have home invasion, are mugged and so on. FYI I own a few rifles, no pistols, am an athiest and DO belong to the NRA. Your stereotyping is so lame.
