Gingrich: Extend Right To Gun Ownership To ‘Every Person On The Planet’

By Eli Clifton on Apr 13, 2012 at 4:54 pm

Speaking at the National Rifle Association’s (NRA) annual conference today, Republican presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich advocated for extending the rights of the second amendment — which refer to the “right to bear arms” — beyond U.S. borders and, indeed, to the population of the entire world.

The former Speaker of the House offered some friendly criticism to the NRA’s leadership, accusing them of being “too timid,” before launching into a proposal for a new U.N. treaty guaranteeing a universal right to gun ownership, he explained:

A Gingrich presidency will submit to the United Nations a treaty that extends the right to bear arms as a human right for every person on the planet because every person on the planet deserves the right to defend themselves from those who would oppress them, those would exploit them, rape them or kill them.

Gingrich, who finds himself in a distant second place in the Republican primary contest, went on to attack the U.N. “small arms treaty” — which has neither been signed nor, as frequently misreported, infringes on the Second Amendment — as keeping us “psychologically on defense.” Gingrich argued that mass gun ownership could be used to empower populist revolts against global injustices:

So the Newster supports all the communist rebels in Columbia, the anti-communist militia, and the drug warlords. And somehow he thinks that this makes the people of Columbia less oppressed.

:goodjob: Newster!
 
Too bad this clown of clowns doesn' have a snowball's chance in hell to be president.
I would have loved to see the reaction to his proposal to the UN.
 
So, he wants to extend part of the US Constitution to the entire world via a UN mandate, yet simultaneously is attacking another UN treaty by claiming it is not binding on the United States? Is this man a complete clown?

Do you even have to ask that question?
 
It's my Christian duty to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. :)

No, no, you don't understand.
The US constitution is good.
 
The Colbert Report pointed out that Newt didn't extend this "right" to the moon, even though "a crescent moon is nothing but a full moon wearing a hoodie".

Newt Gingrich & Gun Rights

Newt:

The right to bear arms comes from our creator, not our government.

Colbert:

Amen, brother. Guns are the work of an omniscient creator. Why else would they fit perfectly into a human hand? Just one more reason we should be a god-fearing nation. He is packing heat.
 
I hope the Gringo stays in the race. I need entertainment if Mittens makes a good VP pick.
 
Eh. I wish the Republicans would stick to isolationism. Wait, maybe this is a first step! If we could get all ya'll Yoorapeean pansies to buy some guns we could save some money on carrier fleets to provide your national defense! OOhh! oohh!!
 
Let's do as Newt says. In fact, let's put out an individual mandate on guns. Throughout the world. That'll surely reduce crime once EVERYONE has a gun.
 
I can't wait for those blue helmeted thugs to come and give me a gun. I'd love to see em try.
 
I can see it now. "You can put a gun in my cold, dead hands!"
 
I wouldn't mind a gun myself. Ideally one of those hand shotguns for maximum spread and portability!

The recoil is so going to break your wrist, or face. :lol:
