--yeah--small arms are responsible for "most of the deaths", blah,blah,blah--they just march on killing people right and left all by themselves---
Somehow, I doubt the people who are moving weapons from China, Bulgaria, etc. (buyers, sellers, and middlemen) are that concerned about filing the right paperwork with the U.N.
The only people this will hurt are the Western gun manufacturers because those are the only countries that will adhere to standards. Of course, that is the intent.
Red China, N. Korea and the Russian Mafyia will sell arms to anyone with hard cash, gold, diamonds or oil in storage.
Those bad boys won't follow any rule the UN or other agency proposes. The marking and tracking system will only hurt US manufacturers and US legal gun-owners (eventual confiscation).
GET US OUT OF UN
GET UN OUT OF US
OOH, this has worked so well in places like Canada and New Jersey, we need to implement it EVERYWHERE! </sarcasm
In the 20th Century 170,000,000 citizens were murdered by their own governments.
EVERY SINGLE weapon control law ever passed by any society from feudal Europe to Japan to Soviet Russia to 3rd Reich Germany had exemptions for government agents. Need I say more?
Invest in a milling machine, lathe, drill press, etc. and build your own. No serial numbers required.
Let's just dispense with the fiction here: these people want to ban guns and ammo in the hands of civilians on a world-wide scale. Let's aid the process...I propose sending in all of our bullets, via AIRMAIL. My understanding is that Colt, Remington, Winchester, Savage, Springfield Armory, Bushmaster, Ruger and a host of gun companies have a far more efficient delivery system than Fed Ex, UPS and the USPO, so we should all use them, instead.
For your list.
Just buy one or more guns directly from other people - lots cheaper than all of that equipment, even if you overpay. Hell, if you've got a friend who likes one of your guns, and you like one of his, just exchange them (especially if you both have AR-15 lowers - then just exchange them, and keep your uppers with your barrel, sights, etc.). Also recommended is going to gun shows and buy reloading equipment and supplies using cash.
I'm sure they'd especially like to track arms among the Sudanese villagers.
Pure sophistry.
Rebecca Peters (The Aussie Sarah Brady) is on record for a near total ban in the USA. She also worked for George Soros.
For starters they might look into the countries (France, Germany, Russia and others) that supplied Iraqi leaders with weapons while the UN embargo was in place. Just another chapter in the Oil for Food saga.
It's time for the lunatics on the left to wake up and smell the coffee.
Stock up on firearms and ammunition ~ ya can't have too much!
Be Ever Vigilant!
