2012 NRA Celebration of American Values Leadership Forum - Newt Gingrich

Newt Gingrich may not have much of a shot at becoming President, but he is refusing to go quietly.
And while he is no longer talking about the colonising the Moon, he does have plans which cover the entire globe.
The former House Speaker told the National Rifle Association today that gun ownership should be a right for everyone in the world, and called on the UN to adopt a treaty enforcing this.

It might be more realistic to get the whole WORLD to have to broadcast and listen to Rush Limbaugh.
A little overdone, Newt.
It will never happen but I do agree with Newt. There are too many “governments” that are totally out of control right now. The people need to be able to defend themselves from these “governments”.
I agree; Newt is a visionary and will get my vote in my state’s upcoming primary. But trying to get the corrupt, criminal UN (useless nations) to adopt anything which makes plain common sense, like self-defense, is futile.
Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the act of depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest.
Mohandas Gandhi.
Get ready for the horde, which appeared on an earlier thread about this speech, to appear and start wailing that Newt is all for the UN “giving us our gun rights”, when the UN just simply needs to go away.
False as can be.
Newt said the right of individual self defense is God given.
The UN and their fellow travelers here on our shores have the opposite view. The elites and the powerful can have guns, the common man cannot.
Newt challenged them to include the right of personal self defense in their vaunted list of human rights...which as we know is a joke anyways, since a bunch of thug countries mainly populate the UN.
But get ready.
Unless they tired of spewing their ignorant bile already, they’ll be here.
Newt was speaking to the NRA.
He was teaching.
Our truths are universal.
He was teaching.
He’s always teaching.
He told the truth. All men are created equal. They are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights.
The right of personal self defense is an unalienable right from God.
Newt said that is not a truth only for Americans, and challenged the NRA to think more broadly about this right.
The lack of this right around the world, along with the lack of our other rights such as free speech, worship, assembly, redress of grievances etc, is why populations of other countries lurch from one dictatorship to another.
Teaching.
A teachable moment.
The UN pays lip service to some of our other rights, but it is totally against the common man’s right to bear arms.
Newt said in your face, UN.
People who are mischaracterizing this and knocking this need to wise up.
Newt is dead on the money on this one, the 2’nd amendment is an idea whose time has come all over the world. India for instance still has several tens of thousands of people killed every year by ****ing snakes. That cannot happen in a nation whose people are armed.
Newt has a command of history and politics like few others do or have had. He’s quite a teaching resource.
Too bad the RINOs won’t take his lessons to heart.
Palin and Gingrich have in common they both had to fight their own party members as well as the Democrats when trying to stop corruption in government.
“I love the idea of taking the debate to UN.
Let them explain why regular people are not trusted to defend themselves.”
This is a grand idea. And, after the stuttering and stammering is done, we can pitch the whole damn lot of them out of the country. Brussels would be a better place for this quasi-government of elitist idiots and socialist malcontents.
Get the US out of the UN and the UN out of the US. It’s the right thing to do.
Our Creator did not create only Americans, and if we are endowed by our creator, that MUST include all of mankind.
Now, admit it ... we never did think beyond ourselves ... did we?
