The UN will never understand the USA firearms traditions and culture, here is an example as to why. This is what you get when only the government and those who seek to take over the government are the only armed groups in a country. It is inevitable that armed groups will soon start abusing the unarmed civilians at gunpoint because they can, then factions begin warring among themselves. The anti-gun leftists in the USA arrogantly assume they will be in control once all guns have been confiscated at their behest. They are fools who do not understand Satayana's classic observation: "Those who do not learn from history are condemned to repeat it"...(The long forgotten and little known sadistic 1960's Rebels of the Congo were out of control, with mass murder as daily "entertainment" rivaling the Roman circuses. Barbaric brutality of sickening proportions result when the Dogs of Murder are let loose under the guise of the Dogs of War)...Every person and politician working against the 2nd Amendment, aware of the unintended consequences or not, are creating the groundwork for a similar scenario here in the USA...We must NOT let that happen...
