NRA's assertion that the UN is trying to regulate guns in the US through international treaties
NRA doesn't have to assert it. I posted much of the UN's plans here about 4 years ago. My source was the UN itself.
I know that you're right, that we should be tightening gun laws. But I'm afraid to do it.'"
Pols should be afraid to do it. Afraid of losing their JOBS like Eric Fingerhut(Ohio), Ma Richards, Jack Brooks(Texas), Al Gore, and Wyche Fowler(Georgia) did.
because they and the gun manufacturers who back them
BZZZZZZZZZZZZZz. Wrong answer. That's a VPC(funded by Soros) myth. The NRA is backed by people like me. I'm not the gun industry.
"In the U.S., the notion of having a gun because you might feel the need to kill someone is acceptable.
That's a loaded term. I shoot to kill turkeys. If I have to defend myself or others, I shoot to stop.
Who's broken into your house at 3am....IS acceptable. He's not there to cook me breakfast.
Lefties always prefer unarmed peasants...
500,000 people worldwide are killed by small guns... only 30,000 in the US per year according to hcinc... less than 10% in the good ole armed usa... could it be because we are the best armed against attacking marauders...

Read the above column and replace the phrase "private gun ownership" with "private automobile ownership"" and set back and hear the howl from the public. Automobiles kill and maim millions each year but nobody (except a few Greens) want to ban private ownership of cars.
The Constitution doesn't specifically protect owning cars as it does guns.
Remember, its all about FREEDOM
I get so tired of the leftists' cheap rhetoric. If you simply want to live in peace and not be a victim, the socialists make it sound like something sinister and anti-social. If, on the other hand, you are a violent criminal (or a dictator) and use guns against innocent people, the socialists will be full of sympathy for you if you are a violent criminal and they will admire you if you do really big crimes (including "gun crimes") and become a dictator.
Like Britain? Where nobody is "entitled" to have them, but every criminal can get one? Where the chance of getting mugged in London is far higher than any major American city? Right.
Is this a "pay per view" too ?
Does NRA and Join Together share the proceeds from this debate?
What was their "take" on the last one ?
How can we, in good conscience, participate in this debate, as a viewer, (Paying Viewer) when "any" part of our money may go to an Anti-Gun group to be used against us..??
