England banned their guns but their murder rate didn't go down and their home invasion rate sky-rocketed. Recent knife murders there have started a movement to ban knives.

The UN can go straight to hell:

In 1998, UN Secretary General acknowledged the UN failure [in Rwanda]:

"... The world must deeply repent this failure. Rwanda's tragedy was the world's tragedy. All of us who cared about Rwanda, all of us who witnessed its suffering, fervently wish that we could have prevented the genocide. . . Now we know that what we did was not nearly enough--not enough to save Rwanda from itself, not enough to honor the ideals for which the United Nations exists."

The ideals for which the UN exists is to make the poor dumb workers of the world forfeit a lot of hard-earned money in order to support a bunch of corrupt clowns. That's bad enough - now they want the whole world to be populated by defenseless slaves. I say again -UN go to hell.

I have been unable to find any other information on the July 4th conference from reputable news sources other than the NRA.org website. Here is a link to the United Nations website:

Allow me to amend your post.

The ideals for which the UN exists is to make the poor dumb workers of the world forfeit a lot of hard-earned money in order to support a bunch of corrupt clowns. That's bad enough - now they want the whole world to be depopulated by of its defenseless slaves. I say again -UN go to hell.

There, that's more like it.

The UN will be razed before they ever have power in this country idly brush away our soveriegnty...

I guess you haven't been paying much attention to the activities surrounding dissolving the borders. That is a move that is being accomplished regardless of the will of the people.

The US is no longer soveriegn.

Our forefathers were liberty-hungry upstarts who utilized their skills as marksmen to overthrow an oppressive government.

The government's greatest fear is that history will repeat itself.

Liked your picture.

But as they say on "The Unit", "Only head shots".

Pleasing picture of UN Helmet

Every time some one posts this picture I feel tempted to say (and I'm giving in this time) that the ones comng for your guns will be local and federal police with perhaps the military in assistance. Look at New Orleans.

It was the POLICE who were leading the gun grabbing charge with some assistance (or so I understand) from the national guard at checkpoints. Unless Amercans are willing to realize that American equivalent of the Einstazgruppen is going to be officer friendly and react accordingly this anti-gun crap will come to pass (provided of course anti-gun Bush or his anti-gun replacement whoever that is signs US on with the UN)

"The US is no longer soveriegn."

I think that's a little extreme.

"--not enough to save Rwanda from itself, not enough to honor the ideals for which the United Nations exists." "The U.N. does not have an ideal. It exists as a road to Global Financial domination. Can one think of a better reason for John D. Rockefeller to donate the land for its headquarters?

It's no coincidence that it cannot and will not do anything to preserve freedom or sovereignty in any nation.

And it will not do anything to rebuke terriorist nations and those who have an abysmal record of human rights. Heck, those nations hold some of the most influential positions!

You are absolutely correct! The main target should never be overlooked however :>)

Getting trapped in an urban center, unprepared and dependent on others, with no plan of action, is a damned foolish thing to do. As abhorrent as what the New Orleans police did may be, it's a very instructive lesson in lefty politics. The more conservative parishes of Plaquemines, St. Bernard and Jefferson were bristling with firearms, yet no attempt to to confiscate firearms, even in areas that were badly flooded.
