    I presume you are in favour of the continuation of the death penalty for certain crimes, and would consider yourself a law-abiding individual?

    The UN has no teeth at all. It costs the US multi- millions to belong. They have the same rhetoric every year. No one complies with any mandate they don't like. There in no way we are interested in International law unless it fits with our agenda. Same with most of the world. The great Boma wanted to use the international gun laws to control the use here. What a joke.

    We can have a annual meeting somewhere and spend millions and millions less.

    We need to cut ALL of our frivolous spending immediately and this would be an excellent place to start. Matter of fact as lame as this organization is they should just use "go to meeting.com"

    Holy Sh!t BD if it were up to my anyone guilty of 1 - 3 murder would be offed in 60 days and that applies to
    1. sex offenders
    2. armed robbery
    3. 3 violent crimes
    4. 1st degree rape

    that is just off the top of my head.
    We don't need these people in our society and we sure as hell don't need to pay for their keep. OK BD you want to be humane I will outsource them to Somalia

    A question for all the UN defenders.

    Name me one thing the UN has done in the last 30 years that could be considered effective and successful?

    Just one.

    Everybody does, including the worst criminals. Law obeying citizens obey laws also in the manner the law makers see fit.

    Laws are one of the only black and white things in the world. You either obey them or you don't. You don't just kind of obey them or obey only the parts you agree with. You aren't for example excused for murdering only one person just because you didn't kill many people or all people.
    I could really use a fish right now

    What do you do if you don't happen to agree with a particular law?

    How can you be truly law-abiding if you only obey laws in the manner you see fit? And would you wish others to act in this way?

    Most definitely.

    A society without personal discrimination is a society that consists of either soul-less morons or liars.
