This past year marked the 60th anniversary of the end of WWII—a war in which liberation and freedom for dozens of nations was bought with American blood.

I wouldn’t be surprised if a member of your family fought in that war. And there’s no doubt that someone you know had a close relative who was killed in that war—one of the 400,000 Americans who made the ultimate sacrifice to win freedom for the world.

Never before, and never since have the people of one nation paid such a dear price to win freedom for others.

That’s why it’s so hard for me to believe that, right now dozens of the nations we helped liberate are working together, hand-in-hand with dictatorships and terrorist states—to snuff out freedom around the globe and dismantle the Bill of Rights here in America.

I’m talking about the mounting effort by more than 100 members of the United Nations to impose a worldwide ban on civilian ownership of firearms. It’s a plan that includes the destruction of the Second Amendment and a ban on YOUR guns.

This summer, at U.N. headquarters in New York City—right here on American soil—these nations along with more than 500 gun-ban groups worldwide will hold an international conference to draft a global “Treaty on Small Arms.”

And if this treaty were ratified in the United States, it would be binding on you and other citizens with the full force of American law—outlawing your guns, extinguishing your hunting, prohibiting your shootings sports, ending your right to self-defense, and destroying our Second Amendment rights forever.

Aiding and abetting the global gun ban treaty movement are six supposedly “free” countries: The U.K., Sweden, The Netherlands, France, Norway, and Belgium.

Along with globalist billionaire George Soros—who spent over $26 million of his personal fortune to try to elect gun-ban Senator John Kerry to the White House last year—these six countries alone have already bankrolled the U.N. gun-ban campaign to the tune of tens of millions of dollars with still more to come.

Today, before they spend another $100 million or $10 million or even one more dollar to attack and try to destroy your Second Amendment rights, I want to hear from you.

I want them to hear from gun owners who are the sons and daughters, and grandsons and granddaughters, of those who heeded Great Britain’s plea for guns in 1940—and sent their family heirlooms for the defense of that nation.

I want them to hear from the sons and daughters, and grandsons and granddaughters, of those who lie buried in American war cemeteries in England, France, The Netherlands and Belgium and across Europe.

I want them to hear from the sons and daughters, and grandsons and granddaughters, of those who were mercilessly attacked at Pearl Harbor, yet who gave generously after the war to help rebuild Japan.

Let’s remind these nations that they have America to thank for their freedoms. Let’s demand that they keep their hands off our Bill of Rights. And let’s remind them that when they support a U.N. backed effort to destroy the right of self-defense for every man and woman on earth, they’re on the wrong side of freedom and the wrong side of history.

The vast majority of 100 nations backing this U.N. gun ban scheme don’t allow their citizens the individual freedoms that are guaranteed to you and me under our unique Bill of Rights.

Libya and Cuba are seated on the U.N. Human Rights Commission, and even Sudan—the only country that still allows slavery—is in charge of this Commission. Yet they arrogantly claim that your freedoms are to blame for the problems of the world!!!

They ignore genocides committed by their own members…Like in Rwanda, where nearly one million people were killed not by guns, but with machetes. Yet somehow they claim that your Second Amendment rights are making the world a more dangerous place.

They ignored the slaughter by Pol Pot in Cambodia—also a U.N. member…And they’ve ignored one massacre after another by hostile governments against people who don’t have a right to own guns and therefore can’t defend themselves.

What these countries and the U.N. will never acknowledge is that the vast majority of firearm atrocities around the world aren’t committed by the individual criminals…the vast majority of wanton killings around the globe are committed by governments—the members of the United Nations themselves.

These are the same governments that now want to extinguish the right of self-defense in America and in every nation around the world—so that only governments will have guns.

The U.N. counts among its members in good standing nearly fifty dictatorship and six state sponsors of terrorism.

Combined, these “members in good standing” of the U.N. have murdered more than 100 million of their own citizens in the past century—more than four times as many of their own people who have died in wars.

So it’s no wonder that they have such a deep-seated hatred of the United States of America where our freedoms have been guaranteed for over 200 years by the Bill of Rights and the Second Amendment.

Make no mistake. This fight is about more than firearms ownership. This is a fight for our national sovereignty, our individual freedoms and the future of our nation.

Just as a handful of patriots fired the “shot heard ‘round the world” at Concord Bridge, it’s up to you and me and the handful of patriots who are proud to be gun owners and proud to tell the world that our nation will not be bullied by the dictators and despots of the U.N.

In no other nation on earth do citizens like you and me enjoy all of the freedoms that are guaranteed to us in the Bill of Rights.

If you and I don’t lead this battle today, no one will.

Thank you.
