This 4th of July, while you and your family celebrate the 230th Anniversary of the founding of our great nation, there’s one party you won’t be invited to...

...And that’s the party that Kofi Annan is throwing at United Nations headquarters in New York — using your tax dollars — for nearly fifty dictatorships, six terrorist states, governments that endorse execution based on religious faith, and a multitude of other nations from around the globe.

You see, this party isn’t to honor your freedoms -- but to conspire to take them away. That’s right. Over our 4th of July holiday, while taps is played at Arlington National Cemetery to honor Americans who have sacrificed their lives for freedom...

true, but legal precedents have allowed for illegal actions by our government in the past

[o_zarkman44]

More garbage from the United Nothings.
I say burn down the UN building and make em move to Cuba or somewhere where they can find like minded support.
America is not the place to promote Useless Nobodys ignorant ideas.

[keats5]

"They can ban em all they want, but they still have to come get them."

If they're registered, they know where to find them.

[Lancer_N3502A]

Do you actually think we'd give a $hit if they outlawed privately owned firearms in this country?

[Lancer_N3502A]

Anyone who registers they're firearms deserves to have them confiscated.

[kinoxi]

no, the price would just go up. i was more referring to governmental actions against those who choose to defend themselves

[proud_yank]

My love for the UN grows by the day. I've said it numerous times, but I would love to see that building turned into the world's largest Super WalMart.

[Lancer_N3502A]

Can't see it being good for the government...8-D

[paul51]

There will be plenty of US government officials supporting this effort. Along with the three already on the list from the UN, why not start a list of US politicians to send the letters to also? I'll start it off: Schumer, feinstein, boxer, bloomberg. Pardon my spelling. I don't have enough respect for them to bother about how I spell their names.

[sgtbono2002]

Let them ban guns from the insurgents in Iraq, Ban them in Suria. The UN eats dirt. Tell them to kiss my Red ,White and Blue ass. throw these turds out of our country.

If Gore were President I would be especially frightened. Thank God he isnt.

[Sofa King]

I think it's about time to classify the UN as a terrorist organization.

[Osage Orange]

From my cold dead hand.........

Okay....if you only have one hand...then fine.

But if you only have one gun...you need more.

[Supernatural]

The U.N. is a pox on citizens of the world.

They like to live high on the hog and run peoples' lives anyway they want to. Dictators.

And we in the U.S. pay most of the bill.

[catmanblack.]

Once our government are any other groups takes or tries to take our guns, all bets off. It will be the end of the constitution and the United States. Government kaos will rein. They will have to do what the british could not, even if it means quartering troops in every town. Every since the british took away the private ownership of guns, lawlessness has run amuck. It is already a nightmare in some big cities God help those who cannot defend themselves.

[Noumenon]

Lists can be very useful.

[kerryusama04]

Do you actually think we'd give a $hit if they outlawed privately owned firearms in this country?

Of course not, and if they came to get 'em that would mean "open season", IMHO. But remember two words:

President Kerry

[Xenophon450]

I am reminded of a Judas priest song...

Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law, breaking the law

[dljordan]

"Do you actually think we'd give a $hit if they outlawed privately owned firearms in this country?"

I think the Feds and the local Ninja boys would pee all over themselves to see who would be first to confiscate them. You'd have thousands of mini-Wacos. Anyone who thinks Officer Friendly is your pal will get his head handed to him after they shoot your puppy, your wife and burn your house down.

[appleharvey]

Why isn't that corrupt P.O.S. Kofi Annan in prison, rather than serving in the U.N.? Hey Kofi! Confiscate this!

[gafusa]

Of course the idea is not to protect people, but to allow dictatorships. According to Kofi, "Even in societies not beset by civil war, the easy availability of small arms has in many cases contributed to violence and political instability," he said. "Controlling that easy availability is a prerequisite for a successful peace-building process." Basically peace at all costs, including insuring that justified rebellions against oppressive governments are stopped. Basically, "peace" by upholding all existing govemnrst, regardless of the cost to freedom. All he talks of is peace and stability, not freedom. A stable oppressive order is okay. As if we needed any more proof, 'The report notes with approval countries like China that have acted to "strengthen legal or regulatory controls." China reported that some 300,000 "illicit" guns were seized and destroyed last year by officials acting in response to "new and more stringent national regulations that have come into force ... on the control on guns within the country and on arms exports." ' Of course China bans all private guns, clearly Kofi's ultimate aim. That way your government can oppress you with impunity. But it is okay, because things will then be "peaceful" and stable, as the government will be difficult to topple. Anybody (ie Gore as you point out)who claims that the UN is not a threat to our freedoms is ignorant, right here they openly admit it. We are told to emulate China!. http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=17276

[Esther Ruth]

...These dictatorships, terrorist states and so-called “free” nations of the world plan to meet on our home soil to FINALIZE!!!! a U.N. treaty that would strip ALL citizens of all nations of their right to self-protection, and strip you of your rights under the Second Amendment.

***

The U.S. politicians are now just giving LIP service to our Constitution and freedoms to keep the sheeple calm while they destroy us from within. They say one thing and are doing another. What else explains something like this going on? Now as they dismantle our freedoms one by one they are doing their best job at turning us all into one very dysfunctional group of people in the process at the same time. They have us biting at each other's heals and pointing our fingers everywhere but where they belong and that is at them. They've all quite perfected the skills of playing good cop/bad cop and doing coy and innocent. American's are in quite a bit of denial.

[stevio]

Bump.

[looscnnn]

France, I am hoping that once Castro kicks off that the people will rise up for freedom. We don't want the UN to be there to squash that.

[looscnnn]

World's largest gun store would be better and very poetic.

[kerryusama04]

Peace through (American) oppression is the goal. These people thrive on the "status quo".

[Supernatural]

You nailed it completely. Very good.

Politicians are not our friends. They are terrorizing our rights.

[Palpatine]

Every single US politician that dares to vote for or approve any of that, should be considered an enemy of the Republic.

Order 66 anyone?

[gafusa]

Indeed. If people do not realize peace with out justice is eternal oppression, we are done. We need war and violence before there can be a semblance, of peace, the swift sword of justice must cull the world's evil first. Otherwise "peace" is far worse than war. The UN, openly not a democratize intuition, wants to oppress us, thinking they can then become a global government. Of course this will never happen, as China only wants us brought to heel, Beijing and most of the UN's supporters (aka the world's dictators)accept no demands from the likes of Kofi, once we are done so is he. Dictators seek to only increase their own power, they only seek to use the UN. But the UNs lust for power, arrogance and ignorance knows no bounds.

[Commander8]

Cool graphic.

[kerryusama04]

Have you seen the debate between La Pierre and Peters?

[WideGlide]

This looks like a job for Controlled Demolition, Inc. (:^*)

[Cobra64]

Anyone who registers they're firearms

they're?

[Cheapskate]

A few years ago, I came up with the idea of turning the UN building into the world's biggest whorehouse.

Then it came to me. IT ALREADY IS

[Lancer_N3502A]

DOH!...there

[Lancer_N3502A]

HE HE, just kidding...their.

[Robert Teesdale]

Darn it, we've been bloody well down this road before.


Bayonets of Freedom

Following is the text of the speech given by Robert Teesdale in Dag Hammarskjold Plaza in New York City on July 14th, 2001.

The most dangerous thing in the world... is an American with a rifle.

He is dangerous because he is powerful. He is dangerous because he is a wild animal, in the truest sense of the word - because he is free. He is as wild and beautiful a thing as any natural predator, and is to be treated with as much respect.

His lives with his rights secured. By principle, and conduct, and by ties to his fellow men - but also by a an affirmation of absolute liberty and unparalleled human declarations, spawned from the desperation of armed rebellion against distant rulers who asserted absolute control.

That spirit is what sets the common example for the citizens of this land we call America. It is what enables us to make our own decisions, and to be bound by nothing more than what we permit to exist as our Government. And that Government, that which we grant sufficient permission to enforce justice, is us.

Yes. The American is dangerous.

Because his decisions are his, and his alone. And the might of the most powerful nation on earth backs those decisions with the resolution of nearly three hundred million hearts.

Not far from here lies the headquarters of the United Nations. An organization of noble ideals, spawned by the turbulent events of the First and Second World Wars. Those times have passed, now - and the international consortium of nations that pulled victory from the darkest hours of the world... has become an international bureacracy that presumes to abitrate sovereign principles of liberty.

China, Sudan, and their malicious host of allies are the United Nations representatives of Human Rights. The resolve of the United Nations military structure to preserve life and liberty was demonstrated in the fall of Srebrenica, in Bosnia, where horrifying numbers of human beings were abandoned to a fate of eager and rapacious butchery.

Today, the United Nations Department of Disamament Affairs is conducting a conference on the control of civil arms across the world. They declare that these 500 million arms are an impediment to human progress. That they are a danger to the people of the world, and that those who bear them are equally a threat to their control.

They are talking about us.

More than half of those civil arms are here, in America. They belong to you, and they belong to me. We own them as an inherent right of all men. That right is clear, and it is totally unequivocal.

It is the right to be free.

That right was asserted by the King of Sparta, Leonidas, before the Battle of Thermopylae. His response to the demand of 600,000 Persian troops that he and his men lay down their arms, was simple and direct.

Molon labe!

Come and take them!

In America, when they came to take them, that right was asserted with gunfire at Lexington, in Massachusetts, where anonymous farmers opened fire on the soldiers of an Empire. It was proven at Yorktown, in Virginia, where General Washington accepted the unconditional surrender of that same Empire. Today it is defended by the power of that passionate heart which Americans have demonstrated countless times, from Bunker Hill to Gettysburg, from Normandy to the Gulf. And it is held in reserve by the ninety million homes in America where lie the 260 million firearms of a proud and loving citizenry.

We have not permitted our own Government to infringe upon this right. It is an integral part of the legal contract by which authority is permitted to reside in Washington, and to enforce justice under the name of our people. It is a solemn contract, and those of our Government which dare break it suffer the justice of the People, in our courts and by that same contract.

If we acknowledge that our Government many not contradict the principles and letter of that contract, the supreme and unbending Law of our land... then how, as Americans, can we suffer that such inalienable rights of our People be tampered with by a foreign clique of enemies who despise those same rights?

Who are enemies not just of our national principles, but who array military forces against us?

I say never.

I say that the United Nations will never leave my child defenseless against tyrants.

I say that the United Nations has no authority to demand anything of my nation, my People or myself.

I say that the power of American resolve, and American arms, are not trifling matters of social culture to be smothered and eaten by an international bureaucracy.

No. They are the teeth of our liberty, and the hardest answer to the cruelest of tyrants who ever dares to look with envious and malevolent eyes upon the shores of the United States.

To the United Nations, I say that I will never register my arms.

I will never ask your permission to own them.

I will never permit you to confiscate them by force of law.

I will die before I abandon my country of America, and the rights of my beloved people, to the authority of a committee of tyrants who presume to assert the right of lethal force against our nation.

I will drive your blue helmet upon my bayonet, and I will carry it through the streets of this land!

The United States Government has withdrawn from the resolutions of the Conference on Disarmament Affairs. Not only our People, but also our partners in the rule of this land, have sent notice that our complicity in the disarmament of our free people will not be tolerated with either the name, or by the will, of the People of the United States of America.

Is that quite clear?

To each of you here today, I say this. The sovereignity of our People and our nation are ours to hold in trust. If we stand united, as has been our common custom and principle from the days of the Revolution, then we are both invincible in principle and in common. Our beloved country and our beloved freedoms are not the object of foreign spoil, nor of the stewardship of international criminals. For consider well the practices of those who oppose us in the United Nations.

In China, it is reported that cattle prods are put into the bodies of nuns, in order to convince them of their crimes against the State. In Sudan, it is reported that thousands of human beings are sold like cattle. Both of these nations are considered more expert in the distribution and monitoring of human rights than the nation which has, time and time again, selflessly spent hundreds of thousands of American lives in foreign wars to preserve the name of freedom in countless killing fields of tyranny.

And we are stronger than ever before.

Today, each of you must go from here and return to your families. To your homes, to your lives, and to the jobs that each of you have left in order to demonstrate your passionate commitment to the America that we love, and ultimately, are responsible for preserving. Perhaps you will walk by the United Nations, and see the statue of a destroyed firearm, and consider what the United Nations thinks of your rights. Maybe you'll think about what the United Nations wants to do to them, and what has happened to people who have trusted the United Nations to preserve their lives and their children.

And maybe... just maybe.... the United Nations should consider the nature of the beast they prod. It is a predator, and an unmatched one. They live within its cave, and feed upon its sustenance.

And now, they tread upon us as well.

Take note, United Nations. Take note of the words of the Continental Congress, who faced death at the end of a rope for their promotion of a high treason against the divine rights of their sovereign lord.

Hear the words they have left us.

"Men trained in arms from their infancy, and animated by the love of liberty, will afford neither a cheap or easy conquest."

Those words were true in 1775, and they remain true today.

Don't tread on us.

Thank you.

Hi Xenophon450-

The simple fact-of-the-matter is that firearms would never be outlawed in one swoop. Leftist liberal legislators will try to chip away at our firearm rights slowly and without trying to "offend" big blocks of gunowners at a time. That's why they started with .50 cal. and expand their efforts from there.

Gunowners passionate about the hobby should own at least a few firearms acquired via legal private transfer that don't involve Form 4473 paperwork. One doesn't necessarily need to break the law...but it is a darn good song by an excellent heavy metal band. One of my absolute favorites for more than twenty years!

[Cheapskate]

Thank You!!!

That response puts the proper explanation point onto the whole situation.

[CtBigPat]

Ultimately this is all about money. The United Dictators can't wait to impose world taxation. And unarmed people make for compliant taxpayers.

[o_zarkman44]

United we stand, divided we fall. Our political machine is doing it's best to fragment our society. Using political correctness, the operatives are creating factional fighting between Americans. Using everything from abortion to smoking, to illegal immigration to welfare benefits and social security, they are forcing people to take sides and fight against each other. And in the process they are concocting unconstitutional laws that place controls on people. They can create dissent and then force the dissenters to back off for fear of violating a law that protects one unpopular group from a majority of opposition.

Every politician is contributing to these problems. Some directly, and some indirectly through agenda driven staffers who manipulate the information politicians need to make informed decisions. They mislead by omission of fact.

There are too many unelected political operatives directing policy and law. And when we keep re-electing politicians it empowers those unelected tag alongs to continue their agenda. This is why some issues keep re-appearing year after year even after being defeated.

The one thing we have to keep in mind about the United Nothings is......Name one mission they have been successful in. One peacekeeping mission.....one country restabilized, one agenda that has been successful.
Answer that question and that is the degree of credibility the world ruling wannabees really have. They have been wanting to remove firearms from society for years. I find it very strange that the poorest of nations seem to have plenty of weapons to wage civil war, while it is percieved that the civilized, wealthy nations can exist without private ownership of firearms. Disarming the population allows ethnic clensing and anarchy. The UN seems to be the leading promoter of anarchy because they want to control who has firearms.

[lost in the snow]

Is this for real. I can not find any mention of it on the NRA website...... or I may need an eye check.

[kerryusama04]

The NRA is bad for having a thousand web sites. I reckon they created stopungunban.org specifically for this battle. The bottom of this page links to here where you can buy the gun debate dvd. This fight has been brewing for years. The best NRA site for searching these issues is http://www.nraila.org
