RE: UN meeting on Gun ban
This BS started out several years back, and the current meeting was supposedly held to "assess the progress" of efforts to reduce traffic in "military-type weapons". Who knows what is covered by that phrase? probably even the M1911 .45 auto! So far, the Bush admin has established the position that this country will not be a party to any treaties that would further restrict Americans' 2nd Amendment rights, or adversely affect ourBill of Rights in any other way.
And, FWIW, Kofe Annan says "Gee whiz, Mr. Bush, that's not what we want to do, anyway!" I believe him (NOT!!)
