As for "law-abiding firearms owners," we must not forget that the UN recognizes no inalienable rights. Its "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" reads like a Utopian's wish list until you get to Article 29:I was, unfortunately, unsuccessful in persuading the tactical geniuses responsible for such fantastic gun rights "victories" in California. Ah well, I always wanted to have an "ilk" I could get to help me promote my "almost Islamist-like exclusionary world-view."
"(2) In the exercise of his rights and freedoms, everyone shall be subject only to such limitations as are determined by law. . . [and] (3) These rights and freedoms may in no case be exercised contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations."
In other words, the law is what the UN or any of its despotic member regimes say it is--as is your "law-abiding" status.
And, of course, there is no declaration that the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. The UN Panel of Governmental Experts on Small Arms report proclaims, "All States should determine in their national laws and regulations which arms are permitted for civilian possession and the conditions under which they can be used."
So if the answer is "none" and "never," your job is to obey.

What a date, My Dear Heart, and what a country from which to write in the month of January!

Not too long ago, we were separated from the enemy by a small river; now we are seven leagues away from them and it is here that the American army will spend the winter in small barracks hardly more cheerful than a jail. I do not know if the general … will decide to visit our new abode; should he, we would show him around. The bearer of this letter will describe to you the pleasant place which I seem to prefer to being with you, with all my friends and amidst all possible pleasures. [More]
