Dead Constitution See other Dead Constitution Articles Title: U.N. INSULT TO CONSTITUTION A GOOD REASON TO HALT U.S. FUNDING, SAYS SAF NEWS RELEASE Second Amendment Foundation 12500 NE Tenth Place Bellevue, WA 98005 (425) 454-7012 FAX (425) 451-3959 http://www.saf.org U.N. INSULT TO CONSTITUTION A GOOD REASON TO HALT U.S. FUNDING, SAYS SAF For Immediate Release: 6/19/2006 BELLEVUE, WA In what can only be a carefully-timed, deliberate insult to the United States and its Constitution, the United Nations is hosting a conference on global gun control aimed directly at our Second Amendment, on dates that include our national holiday, July 4. The U.N. Conference on Global Gun Control, scheduled June 24-July 7, poses a direct threat to our constitutionally-protected individual right to keep and bear arms, said Alan Gottlieb, founder of the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF). Gottlieb will attend the conference, but he suggests that this may be an opportune time for Congress and the White House to reconsider this nations level of financial support for an international organization that now wants to write a treaty that specifically attacks a cornerstone of our federal constitution, and the lynchpin to our liberty. Had it not been for our tradition of private firearms ownership, Gottlieb stated, our citizens might still be subjects of the queen. Had it not been for America, all of Europe might be speaking German. Were America not the great arsenal of democracy that President Franklin D. Roosevelt described in 1940, the world would be a far different place, and the sanctimonious bureaucrats at the U.N. might instead be working in labor camps. Not once, but twice in the past century, American citizens have risen to the challenge and quite literally saved the world, Gottlieb recalled. From our heartland have come heroes like Alvin York, Audie Murphy, Joe Foss and others who grew up in a land of freedom and knew what it took to defend that birthright. Yet, as we celebrate our 230th anniversary, global anti-gunners, under the guise of reviewing a U.N. program of action on small arms and light weapons, want to create a binding international agreement that could supersede our laws and constitution, Gottlieb said. We have done much for the U.N. and in return, the organization has hosted despots, tyrants and dictators whose record of human rights abuses, aggression and genocide speaks for itself. And now comes an attack on our constitution, on our national holiday. America has always answered the call to help our international friends and neighbors, Gottlieb observed, but when our very way of life is attacked, maybe it is time to find more worthy endeavors for our material and financial support. The Second Amendment Foundation http://(www.saf.org) is the nations oldest and largest tax-exempt education, research, publishing and legal action group focusing on the Constitutional right and heritage to privately own and possess firearms. Founded in 1974, The Foundation has grown to more than 600,000 members and supporters and conducts many programs designed to better inform the public about the consequences of gun control. SAF has previously funded successful firearms-related suits against the cities of Los Angeles; New Haven, CT; and San Francisco on behalf of American gun owners, a lawsuit against the cities suing gun makers and an amicus brief and fund for the Emerson case holding the Second Amendment as an individual right. -END-

The ONLY genuine pro gun group out there now is Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership. Even though Jews are usually connected with the evils of "Zionism" (Actually a movement by the Jesuits to get Jerusalem for the Pope and the Black Pope (Jesuit Superior General) using Jewish groups like PNAC and AIPAC as a front) on this forum this Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership is the ONLY pro gun organization researching the origins and ultimate PURPOSE for "gun control" (the disarming and elimination of "useless eaters") and reccommending JURY NULLIFICATION as a weapon against "gun control". I really wish some of the "Goy" groups would do these things too but they AREN'T.
I don't think politicians or lobbyists have a fucking thing to say about my guns !
