I just got this e-mailed to me and  thought I would share it.  barry and hillery are still going to sign the united nations gun control bill the last I heard.

Gun History

   After reading the following historical facts,
read
 the part about  Switzerland twice.

             A LITTLE GUN HISTORY
             In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control..  From
 1929 to 1953,
             about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves,
 were rounded up and exterminated.

             In 1911,  Turkey  established gun control.  From 1915 to
 1917, 1..5 million
             Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and
             exterminated.



             ------------------------------

             Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to
 1945, a total
             of 13 million Jews and others who were unable to defend
 themselves were
             rounded up and exterminated.



             ------------------------------
                China  established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to

             political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were
 rounded up and
             exterminated


             ------------------------------

             Guatemala  established gun control in 1964.  From 1964 to
 1981, 100,000
             Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up
 and
             exterminated.

              ------------------------------

             Uganda  established gun control in 1970.  From 1971 to

             exterminated

             ------------------------------

             Cambodia  established gun control in 1956. From 1975 to

             Defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th
 Century
             because of gun control: 56 million.

             ------------------------------

             It has now been 12 months since gun owners in  Australia
 were forced by
             new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be
 destroyed by their
             own Government, a program costing  Australia  taxpayers
 more than $500
             million dollars. The first year results are now in:

             List of 7 items:

             Australia-wide, homicides are up 3.2 percent.

             Australia-wide, assaults are up 8.6 percent.

             Australia-wide, armed robberies are up 44 percent (yes, 44
 percent)!

             In the state of  Victoria  alone, homicides with firearms
 are now up 300
             percent.  Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned
 them in, the
             criminals did not, and criminals still possess their guns!

             While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady
 decrease in
             armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically
 upward in the
             past 12 months, since criminals now are guaranteed that
 their prey is
             unarmed.

             There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and
 assaults of the
             ELDERLY.  Australian politicians are at a loss to explain
 how public
             safety has decreased, after such monumental effort, and
 expense was
             expended in successfully ridding Australian society of
 guns.  The
             Australian experience and the other historical facts above
 prove it.

             You won't see this data on the  US  evening news, or hear
 politicians
             disseminating this information.

             Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and
 property and, yes,
             gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding
 citizens

             Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too late!

             The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please
 remind them
             of this history lesson.

             With guns, we are 'citizens.'

             Without them, we are 'subjects'.

             During WWII the Japanese decided not to invade  America
 because they knew
             most Americans were ARMED!

             If you value your freedom, please spread this anti-gun
 control message
             to all of your friends.

             The purpose of fighting is to win.  There is no possible
 victory in
             defense.  The sword is more important than the shield, and
 skill is more
             important than either.  The final weapon is the brain.  All
 else is
             supplemental.

            
SWITZERLAND ISSUES EVERY HOUSEHOLD A GUN!

                 SWITZERLAND  'S GOVERNMENT TRAINS EVERY ADULT THEY
 ISSUE A RIFLE.

             SWITZERLAND HAS THE LOWEST GUN RELATED CRIME RATE OF ANY

             CIVILIZED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!!!

             IT'S A NO BRAINER!

             DON'T LET OUR GOVERNMENT WASTE MILLIONS OF OUR TAX DOLLARS

             IN AN EFFORT TO MAKE ALL LAW ABIDING CITIZENS AN EASY TARGET..

             I'm a firm believer of the 2nd Amendment!

             If you are too, please forward.


             Just think how powerful our government is getting!

             They think these other countries just didn't do it right.

             Learn from history
