Gun Control Documentation

<div align='center'>Gun Control Source Documentation as it Relates to World Government</div>


Here is a list of source material I have compiled so researchers can be up to date in regards to the moves in regards to the present state of the General and Complete Disarmament agenda as pushed by individuals, governments and non governmental organisations (NGO's). This is by no means a comprehensive list as I have chosen to eliminate a lot of extraenous material which I deemed unnecessary for the objective at hand which is to illustrate the relevence of GACD from its birth through to the present day in regards to the developing world government. If anyone wants additional material please let me know.

The General and Complete Disarmament agenda is a very broad subject to cover as over the years it has been developed into a web which intersects into other areas agendas such as economics and human rights. In order to understand how world government is being brought about right under our noses and thus expose it and stand up against it it is prudent for us to familiarise ourselves with the different aspects involved. It is important we firstly only stick to documented fact thus avoiding out of context sensationalism, and secondly we must refuse to spread unverified rumours both of which serve to damage our credibility and misdirect our energies.

The purpose of General and Complete Disarmament is to bring about (a) a one world military force operating under United Nations authority to which all nations would contribute personel, (b) a minimal national military/police force used as the local enforcement arm of world law, and an unarmed civilian population.

"Listen to everyone, read everything, believe nothing unless you can prove it in your own research." William Cooper




I have listed everything in order starting with the most recent.


1. Specific Human Rights Issues: New Priorities
General Assembly, Human Rights Council, Sub-Commission on the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights, Fifty-eighth session, A/HRC/Sub.1/58/L.24, 21 August 2006
http://www.iansa.org/un/documents/salw_hr_resn_eng.pdf

notes and relevent quotes:-

Quote:3. Further urges States to take effective measures to minimize violence carried out
by armed private actors, including using due diligence to prevent small arms from getting into
the hands of those who are likely to misuse them;

Registration and restriction is the only means to achieve this.

Quote:4. Requests, as a means of preventing human rights violations committed with small
arms, that persons and groups who document human rights practices, including United Nations
special procedures, United Nations human rights monitors in field operations and
non-governmental organizations, seek out information and report specifically on human rights
violations committed with small arms and light weapons;

The dissemination of propaganda is recognised as essential in order to sway public opinion in regards to this issue.

Quote:"5. Welcomes the final report of the Special Rapporteur, Barbara Frey, on the
prevention of human rights violations committed with small arms and light weapons
(A/HRC/Sub.1/58/27), containing the draft principles on the prevention of human rights
violations committed with small arms (A/HRC/Sub.1/58/27/Add.1);"

2. Specific Human Rights Issues: Prevention of human rights violations committed with small arms and light weapons
General Assembly, Human Rights Council, Sub-Commission on the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights Fifty-eighth session, A/HRC/Sub.1/58/27, 27 July 2006
http://www.iansa.org/un/documents/salw_h...t_2006.pdf

notes and relevent quotations...

Quote:16. Minimum effective measures that States should adopt to prevent small arms violence,
then, must go beyond mere criminalization of acts of armed violence. Under the principle of due
diligence, it is reasonable for international human rights bodies to require States to enforce a
minimum licensing requirement designed to keep small arms and light weapons out of the hands
of persons who are likely to misuse them. Recognition of this principle is affirmed in the
responses to the questionnaire of the Special Rapporteur on the prevention of human rights
violations committed with small arms and light weapons which indicate widespread State
practice to license private ownership of small arms and ammunition. The criteria for
licensing may vary from State to State, but most licensing procedures consider the following:
(a) minimum age of applicant; (b) past criminal record including any history of interfamilial
violence; © proof of a legitimate purpose for obtaining a weapon; and (d) mental fitness.9
Other proposed criteria include knowledge of laws related to small arms, proof of training on the
proper use of a firearm and proof of proper storage. Licences should be renewed regularly to
prevent transfer to unauthorized persons. These licensing criteria are not insurmountable barriers
to legitimate civilian possession. There is broad international consensus around the principle
that the laws and procedures governing the possession of small arms by civilians should remain
the fundamental prerogative of individual States. While regulation of civilian possession of
firearms remains a contested issue in public debate - due in large part to the efforts of firearms
manufacturers and the United States of America-based pro-gun organizations - there is in fact
almost universal consensus on the need for reasonable minimum standards for national
legislation to license civilian possession in order to promote public safety and protect human
rights. This consensus is a factor to be considered by human rights mechanisms in weighing
the affirmative responsibilities of States to prevent core human rights violations in cases
involving private sector gun violence.

Pay attention to how gun control opposition is contextualised as a contested issue of public debate due to the large part firearms manufacturers and pro-gun organisations play. No mention at all of the limitations of the Second Amendment, which is a part of the Supreme Law of the USA, is made at all. It should also be noted that according to many UN Human Rights instruments that self defence is not a legitimate purpose for obtaining a weapon. UN principles teach that it is a governments responsibility to secure and protect the safety of the people.

Quote:26. International bodies and States universally define self-defence in terms of necessity and
proportionality.22 Whether a particular claim to self-defence is successful is a fact-sensitive
determination. When small arms and light weapons are used for self-defence, for instance,
unless the action was necessary to save a life or lives and the use of force with small arms is
proportionate to the threat of force, self-defence will not alleviate responsibility for violating
another’s right to life.
27. The use of small arms and light weapons by either State or non-State actors automatically
raises the threshold for severity of the threat which must be shown in order to justify the use of
small arms or light weapons in defence, as required by the principle of proportionality. Because
of the lethal nature of these weapons and the jus cogens human rights obligations imposed upon
all States and individuals to respect the right to life,23 small arms and light weapons may be used
defensively only in the most extreme circumstances, expressly, where the right to life is already
threatened or unjustifiably impinged.

Self defence is not an excuse, as can be seen here, unless unless the action is absolutely necessary. Studies in international law demonstrate that this is interpreted to mean the level of certainty must err very heavily on the side of caution lest a life is taken needlessly. In a real situation this is nonsense for if you wake up one night and find an intruder in your house how do you know for 'sure' if the intruder has lethal intentions if discovered? This is something people will have to study on their own due to the fact that international law is an evolving field and is open to interpretation, I do think I am right on the money though with the view I have formed from the trends I have seen.

Notes and relevent quotations...

Quote:Aware of the need to advance further in the field of arms regulation, non-
proliferation and disarmament on the basis of universal, multilateral, non-
discriminatory and transparent negotiations with the goal of reaching general and
complete disarmament under strict international control.

5. United Nations Disarmament Commission
http://disarmament.un.org/undiscom.htm

The UN Disarmament Commission was reestablished out of the framework which was laid at the United Nations Tenth Special Assembly on Disarmament in 1978(Section 120 of the Final Document of the Tenth Special Assembly on Disarmament, see below).


6. Report of the United Nations Conference on the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light
Weapons in All Its Aspects, New York, 9-20 July 2001
A/CONF.192/15/Corr.1
http://www.un.org/events/smallarms2006/p...%20(E).pdf

notes and relevent quotes:-

on page 15...

Quote:21. Convinced of the need for a global commitment to a comprehensive approach to promote, at the global, regional, subregional, national and local levels, the prevention, reduction and eradication of the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons in all its aspects as a contribution to international peace and security,

22. Resolve therefore to prevent, combat and eradicate the illicit trade in
small arms and light weapons in all its aspects by:
(a) Strengthening or developing agreed norms and measures at the
global, regional and national levels that would reinforce and further coordinate efforts to prevent, combat and eradicate the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons in all its aspects;
...
(d) Mobilizing the political will throughout the international
community to prevent and combat illicit transfers and manufacturing of small arms and light weapons in all their aspects, to cooperate towards these ends and to raise awareness of the character and seriousness of the interrelated problems associated with the illicit manufacturing of and trafficking in these weapons;
(e) Promoting responsible action by States with a view to preventing
the illicit export, import, transit and retransfer of small arms and light
weapons. 2 The term “excessive and destabilizing accumulation of small arms and light weapons” is described in paragraphs 34-37 of the report of the Panel of Governmental Experts on Small Arms (A/52/298, annex).

'Mobilizing the political will' involved a barrage of propaganda dissemination such as we are seeing today.


on page 16...

Quote:1. We, the States participating in this Conference, bearing in mind the
different situations, capacities and priorities of States and regions, undertake the following measures to prevent, combat and eradicate the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons in all its aspects:

At the national level
...
3. To adopt and implement, in the States that have not already done so, the necessary legislative or other measures to establish as criminal offences under their domestic law the illegal manufacture, possession, stockpiling and trade of small arms and light weapons within their areas of jurisdiction, in order to ensure that those engaged in such activities can be prosecuted under appropriate national penal codes.
4. To establish, or designate as appropriate, national coordination agencies or bodies and institutional infrastructure responsible for policy guidance, research and monitoring of efforts to prevent, combat and eradicate the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons in all its aspects. This should include aspects of the illicit manufacture, control, trafficking, circulation, brokering and trade, as well as tracing, finance, collection and destruction of small arms and light weapons.
...
11. To assess applications for export authorizations according to strict
national regulations and procedures that cover all small arms and light
weapons and are consistent with the existing responsibilities of States under relevant international law, taking into account in particular the risk of diversion of these weapons into the illegal trade.

Again, registration and restriction is the only way to achieve any of this. It all kind of puts in context Kofi Annans reasurrance that there is no intention whatsoever to restrict the ownership of legal firearms.


7. Report of the Group of Governmental Experts On Small Arms, August 19, 1999
A/54/258
http://disarmament.un.org/cab/smallarms/...heet21.htm

This report uses the foundation material listed in the United Nations International Study on Firearm Regulation of 25 April, 1997, (E/CN.15/1997/CRP.6) which puts the quote below in context.

notes and relevent quotes:-

Quote:This study showed that there are wide differences among
States as regards which types of arms are permitted for
civilian possession, and as regards the circumstances under
which they can legitimately be owned, carried and used. Such
wide variations in national laws raise difficulties for effective
regional or international coordination. Moreover, many States
have yet to determine in their national regulations which arms
are permitted or prohibited for civilian possession.

Recommendation 12. All States should ensure that
they have in place adequate laws, regulations and
administrative procedures to exercise effective control
over the legal possession of small arms and light
weapons and over their transfer in order, inter alia,
to prevent illicit trafficking. (A/52/298, annex, para. 80

8. Final Document of Tenth Special Session of the General Assembly, 1978
U.N. Disarmament Yearbook, Volume 3, 1978
http://disarmament.un.org/gaspecialsessi...esmain.htm

notes and relevent quotes:-

Quote:109. Implementation of these priorities should lead to general and complete disarmament under effective international control, which remains the ultimate goal of all efforts exerted in the field of disarmament. Negotiations on general and complete disarmament shall be conducted concurrently with negotiations on partial measures of disarmament. With this purpose in mind, the Committee on Disarmament will undertake the elaboration of a comprehensive programme of disarmament encompassing all measures thought to be advisable in order to ensure that the goal of general and complete disarmament under effective international control becomes a reality in a world in which international peace and security prevail and in which the new international economic order is strengthened and consolidated.

Here we have the ultimate goal, right out of the horses mouth.

Quote:"111. General and complete disarmament under strict and effective international control shall permit States to have at their disposal only those non-nuclear forces, armaments, facilities and establishments as are agreed to be necessary to maintain internal order and protect the personal security of citizens in order that States shall support and provide agreed manpower for a United Nations peace force."

The use of the word 'shall' here is very definitive. Section 111 embodies the same objective as the Freedom From War quote I have listed below.


9. Title 22 United States Code, Chapter 35,Section 2552
Arms Control and Disarmament Act, Public Law 87-297 (House Resolution Bill 9118)
http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/

notes and relevent quotes:-

Quote:§ 2551. Congressional statement of purpose

An ultimate goal of the United States is a world which is free from the scourge of war and the dangers and burdens of armaments; in which the use of force has been subordinated to the rule of law; and in which international adjustments to a changing world are achieved peacefully. It is the purpose of this chapter to provide impetus toward this goal by addressing the problem of reduction and control of armaments looking toward ultimate world disarmament.

The Congress and the Senate had no authority to pass such legislation and this just goes to show their ignorance and utter contempt for the Constitution for the United States of America.

Quote:Sec. 2552. Definitions
As used in this chapter--
(a) The terms ``arms control'' and ``disarmament'' mean the
identification, verification, inspection, limitation, control,
reduction, or elimination, of armed forces and armaments of all
kinds under international agreement including the necessary steps
taken under such an agreement to establish an effective system of
international control, or to create and strengthen international
organizations for the maintenance of peace.

The congressional debate to the inclusion of the word 'elimination' is a very interesting read for anyone who wishes to look it up. Suffice to say the traitors who supported this legislation knew exactly what they were doing.


10. Freedom From War: The United States Program for General and Complete Disarmament in a Peaceful World, September 1961
Department of State Publication 7277, Disarmament Series 5, Released September 1961
http://dosfan.lib.uic.edu/ERC/arms/freedom_war.html

notes and relevent quotes:-

Quote:The progressive steps to be taken during the final phase of the disarmament program would be directed toward the attainment of a world in which:
(a) States would retain only those forces, non-nuclear armaments, and establishments required for the purpose of maintaining internal order; they would also support and provide agreed manpower for a U.N Peace Force.
(B)The U.N. Peace Force, equipped with agreed types and quantities of armaments, would be fully functioning.
© The manufacture of armaments would be prohibited except for those of agreed types and quantities to be used by the U.N. Peace Force and those required to maintain internal order. All other armaments would be destroyed or converted to peaceful purposes.

11. John F. Kennedy speech to United Nations General Assembly on Disarmament, September 25, 1961
http://www.jfklibrary.org/Historical+Resou...ons09251961.htm

notes and relevent quotes:-

Quote:The program to be presented to this assembly--for general and complete disarmament under effective international control--moves to bridge the gap between those who insist on a gradual approach and those who talk only of the final and total achievement. It would create machinery to keep the peace as it destroys the machinery of war. It would proceed through balanced and safeguarded stages designed to give no state a military advantage over another. It would place the final responsibility for verification and control where it belongs, not with the big powers alone, not with one's adversary or one's self, but in an international organization within the framework of the United Nations. It would assure that indispensable condition of disarmament--true inspection--and apply it in stages proportionate to the stage of disarmament. It would cover delivery systems as well as weapons. It would ultimately halt their production as well as their testing, their transfer as well as their possession. It would achieve under the eyes of an international disarmament organization, a steady reduction in force, both nuclear and conventional, until it has abolished all armies and all weapons except those needed for internal order and a new United Nations Peace Force. And it starts that process now, today, even as the talks begin.

nice work

[Skinski7]

Could this information be stickied please. Once you obtain the majority of this material in hard copy format (from a library) it makes a very powerful tool in regards to educating your local community.

I have had a lot of success using this research.

[wokensheep]

while i was reading the first post i thought of a sticky. good work.

[WeThePeople]

Excellent post Skinski7. That's why virtually all of us who believe in the Second Amendment have always been vehemently anti-UN. They've gutted the Constitution's soul, now they want it's heart by depriving us of our last means of defense - personal firearms.

After the Civil War, America adopted the 14th Amendment – and a major purpose of that Amendment was to outlaw gun confiscations by State officials who wanted to at disarm Black Americans so as to leave them vulnerable to Klan attack. Some legal experts say the 14th Amendment gives a clearer individual right to arms than does the Second Amendment!
In the 1960s, civil rights workers armed themselves to ward off the Klan
