87. "yes"??
So you are in fact saying that

The United Nations, The Organization of American States (OAS), the European Union (EU) the Summit of Nations (G-8) and several other alliances of regional governments are currently working to strengthen global gun controls. Largely initiated by the law enforcement community, these initiatives aim to trace and record the movement of weapons over borders and to reduce the availability of guns for crime, conflict and all forms of violence. As international firearm regulation is seen to be most effective when supported by strong domestic gun controls, nations are being urged to harmonize their gun laws in key areas. These include import/export restrictions, the licensing of gun owners and the registration of their weapons.
is "the same" as "plans to rid the world's civilian population of privately owned guns, including those in the US"?

I can only repeat what I already said: here, we have one of those where to start situations. How can one possibly discuss anything with anyone who looks at an orange and says "it's blue"?

Are you so dim that you really believe this? Are you so disingenuous that you would claim to believe it, and attempt to persuade others of it, when you know it to be false? Is there another option?

"you also need to follow other links on the page you quoted"

Please. You're making assertions. I don't need to do anything except wait for you to substantiate them.
