When Guns Become a Global Political Battleground
Imagine waking up one morning to discover your constitutional rights had been quietly undermined not by your own government, but by international treaties you never voted on. This isn't dystopian fiction-it's the warning at the heart of "The Global War on Your Guns." Since the mid-1990s, a sophisticated international movement has been working to reframe gun ownership as a privilege granted by governments rather than an inherent right. When gun control advocates hit roadblocks in America, they didn't abandon their goals-they simply changed battlefields, moving to international forums where public scrutiny is minimal and democratic accountability nearly nonexistent. The strategy is brilliantly effective: create binding international agreements that pressure the U.S. to conform to global standards. While Americans might dismiss such threats as foreign concerns, these international norms could reshape American constitutional rights through judicial reinterpretation, executive agreements, or diplomatic pressure. The movement's vision is clear: civilian ownership of firearms should be severely restricted worldwide, with no exceptions for American constitutional traditions. As Rebecca Peters, who leads the International Action Network on Small Arms, bluntly stated when asked what firearms Americans should own: Americans "shouldn't be exempt from rules that apply to the rest of the world."
