#1 yes, well done. Too bad Amnesty shot their reputation and allowed it to bleed to death. People might actually be willing to listen to their proposal to get the arms trade under control - rather than just automatically assuming that it is going to be as silly and meaningless as everything else they have done recently.

#3 The Instaprofessor's stated position, iirc, is that if every citizen of the world were extended the protection of gun ownership, a lot of the problems with authoritarians and dictators would be history. I note that even during the height of the insurgency in Iraq, we still allowed each homeowner, head of family, to keep an AK47 and ammo. Our casualties have mainly been IED. And there have been records of local people capturing or fighting the foreigners who've created the problem in country. Hmmmm....
