WATCH OUT, THE UN IS COMING FOR YOUR RIGHTS
Information on Agenda 21
Article from The Blaze:
What is Agenda 21? If you do not know about it, you should.Agenda 21 is a two-decade old, grand plan for global 'Sustainable Development,' broughtto you from the United Nations. George H.W. Bush (and 177 other world leaders) agreed
to it back in 1992, and in 1995, Bill Clinton signed Executive Order #12858, creating a
Presidential Council on 'Sustainable Development.' This effectively pushed the UN planinto America's large, churning government machine without the need for any review ordiscussion by Congress or the American people.
'Sustainable Development' sounds like a nice idea, right? It sounds nice, until you scratchthe surface and find that Agenda 21 and Sustainable Development are really cloaked
plans to impose the tenets of Social Justice/Socialism on the world.At risk from Agenda 21;
Private Property ownership
Single-Family homes Private car ownership and individual travel choices
Privately owned farms
The Agenda 21 plan openly targets private property. For over thirty-five years the UN
has made their stance very clear on the issue of individuals owning land;
Land cannot be treated as an ordinary asset, controlled by individuals and subject tothe pressures and inefficiencies of the market. Private land ownership is also a principal
instrument of accumulation and concentration of wealth and therefore contributes to

social injustice; if unchecked, it may become a major obstacle in the planning andimplementation of development schemes. The provision of decent dwellings and healthy
conditions for the people can only be achieved if land is used in the interest of society as
a whole.

From an"Old" friend & Gun owner. FYI
When I had my gangrene gallbladder taken out and spent 10 days in thehospital for what should have been an overnight stay, the insurance company
kicked me out. I had home nurse visits for two weeks and was asked if I hadguns in the house. I responded that if I did I would not tell them. So the
below has some merit.I am passing this along...there are comments from two other people I have also been
asked if we keep guns in the house.The nurse just kinda slipped it in along with all the other regular
questions. I told her I refused to answer because it was against the law to ask.Everyone, whether you have guns or not, should give a neutral answer so they have no
idea who does and who doesn't.My doctor asked me if I had guns in my house and also if any were loaded. I, of course,
answered yes to both questions. Then he asked why I kept a loaded gun close to my bed. Ianswered that my son, who is a certified gun instructor and also works for HomelandSecurity, advised me that an unloaded, locked up gun is no protection against criminal
attack. The Government now requires these questions be asked of people on Medicare,and probably everyone else.
Just passing this along for your information:I had to visit a doctor other than my regular doctor when my doctor was on vacation..
One of the questions on the form I had to fill out was:Do you have any guns in your house?? My answer was None of your damn business!! So
it is out there!It is either an insurance issue or government intervention. Either way, it
is out there and the second the government gets into your medical records ( As they wantto under Obamacare) it will become a major issue and will ultimately result in lock and
load!!Please pass this on to all the other retired guys and gun owners...Thanks
From a Vietnam Vet and retired Police Officer:
I had a doctors appointment at the local VA clinic yesterday and found out somethingvery interesting that I would like to pass along.While going through triage before seeing the doctor, I was asked at the end of the exam,
three questions:1. Did I feel stressed?
2. Did I feel threatened?3. Did I feel like doing harm to someone?
The nurse then informed me, that if I had answered yes to any of thequestions, I would have lost my concealed carry permit as it would have gone into my
medical records and the VA would have reported it to Homeland Security.

Looks like they are going after the vets first. Other gun people likeretired law enforcement will probably be next. Then when they go after the civilians,
what argument will they have?Be forewarned and be aware. The Obama administration has gone on record as
considering veterans and gun owners potential terrorists. Whether you are a gun owner
veteran or not, YOU"VE BEEN WARNED !
