Newt Gingrich may not have much of a shot at becoming President, but he is refusing to go quietly.



And while he is no longer talking about the colonising the Moon, he does have plans which cover the entire globe.



The former House Speaker told the National Rifle Association today that gun ownership should be a right for everyone in the world, and called on the UN to adopt a treaty enforcing this.



Mr Gingrich told the convention in St Louis: 'I believe the NRA has been too timid.'



Arguing that more guns would reduce violent crimes like rape and child murder, he promised that if elected to the White House he would push the UN to extend the right to bear arms to the rest of the world.



'The Second Amendment is an amendment for all mankind,' he said.

Question: Do you agree that gun ownership should be a right for everyone in the world? (Why or why not).
 
Well, whether we would like it or not, a crapload of people who shouldn't have guns do have guns. And they'll continue getting them, no matter how tight gun restriction can be.



Of course it's not cool, but what the heck can we do about it? Might as well arm and protect ourselves from them.
 
Few things are scarier than a person with a gun who shouldn't have one in the first place. I would feel safer without a bunch of gun-toting vigilantes around my neighborhood.



I take Gingrich's words with a grain of salt as just cheap words from a cheap politician looking to be leader of the free world.



Case in point:
