The Global War on Your Guns: Inside the U.N. Plan to Destroy the Bill of Rights

by Wayne LaPierre

In July 2001, the United Nations hosted a bonfire, but they weren't roasting marshmallows-they were burning piles of guns seized from the citizens of member nations. There's perhaps no better picture of what the UN thinks of private gun ownership, and in the summer of 2006, the gun-destroyers will be at it again, when the UN re-confers about regulating gun possession, pushing for an international criminal court that would usurp U.S. sovereignty and...

A must read for both the right and left

This is one of many books that points out just how corrupt the U.N really is. This book not only plainly points out the U.N's disregard for liberty and human rights, but also how it perpetuates the destruction of those rights. If history (and current events) has taught us anything it is that the fasted way to control a people is to take away there ability to defend themselves. Very well written and footnoted.

Great Book

Awesome book fir anyone who wants to know how the libs are trying to use fear and a "for your own good" mentality to confiscate your guns.

Alarmist? No, just ahead of his time.

People have often referred to the NRA as alarmist. This is false. As noted by earlier authors, LaPierre needs to spend more time talking about the gun grabbers within our own midst, that of the United States government. Katrina showed to the nation that criminals will walk around looting whenever they get the chance, hence that was a perfect environment for arming oneself for self-defense. The government went in their and grabbed the guns from honest, law-abiding American citizens. Make no mistake, the U.N. wants to grab your guns also, but LaPierre needs to write a follow-up book on the United State entities that are trying to shred the 2nd Amendment in your face.

It's not only about guns it's about the sovereignty of the United States

The Global war on your guns is a well researched and factual account of the efforts of The United Nations attempt at taking over our nation. This is not some alarmist's half-cocked radical viewpoint, but rather a well researched report on the record of the U.N. and how they have become a powerful organization bent on regulating the entire world under their iron hand. Mr. LaPierre points out how the U.N. has failed in it's peace keeping efforts in all of the nations where they have gained control. Worse than that the U.N. "peace keepers" have not been all that peaceful. In fact in many cases they have been more violent and controlling than any of the governments that they have assumed control from. LaPierre names names and gives quotes along with the violent and underhanded history of the U.N.'s activities worldwide. This is a book that should be read by every American who believes in our constitution and the bill of rights. Mr. LaPierre is the executive vice president of the N.R.A., but the information in this book does not pertain to what many have seen as a special interest group. He goes into great detail in explaining how every tyranical dictatorship in recent history has used firearms confiscation as the first step in gaining control of the free people in the nations that they have seized control of. No! This book is not simply about gun control, but rather about how gun control could be the first step in undermining the bill of rights and destroying the sovereignty of our great nation. Every patriotic American who believes that we still live in the land of the free and the home of the brave should read this one.

Educate yourself on the reality of the UN!

This book should be absolutely essential reading for everyone in America (or anywhere, for that matter)--it's not just about guns (though it does eloquently and soundly make the case for the right to bear arms), but it also chronicles story after story after story of U.N. corruption and waste, direct U.N. support of terrorists, U.N. exacerbation of genocides, U.N. attempts at removal of liberty and human rights everywhere, the "rape culture" of their so-called peacekeepers, their legitimizing of the most oppressive regimes...I could go on and on and on. In short, it sums up why the U.N. isn't good at anything but spreading misery and pain, and, consequently, why we shouldn't allow them anywhere near our Second Amendment (or anywhere near the US in any way, shape, or form in my opinion). Some will say that Mr. LaPierre and those like him are only being alarmist in saying that the UN could threaten our right to bear arms in the USA anytime soon. However, Mr. LaPierre gives all the evidence needed as to why it's never too soon to be concerned about what the UN is trying to do and to have an early warning, especially because of what the UN has, in fact, already done in countries all over the world where the people are far, far worse off because of UN interference. Every person in a free country should read this book and then lobby their elected representatives to get their country out of the UN as soon as possible. Far, far too few people have any idea what a horrible and insidious organization the UN is, and Wayne LaPierre throws a lot of desperately needed light on the subject.
