UN Says that Self Defense is Not a Human Right

According to documents recently written by the UN, self defense is not a human right as defined by international law. So in their opinion I should let somebody kill me than try to protect myself... if someone breaks into my house I should help them load up the TV instead of defending my life and property. Hah.

This is kinda sad... how can they be that far off base?

I wish we weren't a part of the UN... that's crazy.

No, they said that the UN does not give you a right to bear arms, but leaves that to the country in and of itself.


EDIT: DID YOU EVEN READ IT, ZERO????

"According to documents recently written by the UN, self defense is not a human right as defined by international law."

I'm not saying you're wrong... but...


"The Principal of self-defense has an important place in international Human Rights law"

Which is exactly one of my points. The principle of self-defense... not the action.

Ah, now I see what you're getting at, and I remind you that there's a huge difference between telling you not to do something, and not telling you to do something.

Heh...I'm glad you guys had this discussion.
