If this is what it looks like, we are in trouble...

This is an edited (for length) copy of an e-mail I recieved on RKBA e-list. I have not had time to go to the library to check it all out. I HAVE seen the copy of State Department Publication 7277 that is on the web, it is on 3 different web sites.
If one of you has easy access to a public library, please check this out

Go to your local library, no matter where you
live in the United States. Tell the librarian to show you where the United States Code books are shelved. There are 25 books in the set. They are reddish-brown in color. They are printed by the Government Printing Office in Washington, DC. These hard-covered books are printed every 8-10 years. They are updated with annual soft-back supplements
each year until a new hard-cover issue comes out. At the present time the 1988 hardbacks are on library shelves.

OPEN VOLUME 9. The page numbers are in the center near the middle binding. The section numbers are along the edges.

TURN TO PAGE 651. Here you will find Public Law 87-297 which calls for
the United States to eliminate its armed forces. This law was signed for
the United States in 1961. John F. Kennedy signed it and every president
since has worked to enact its provisions. The government knows you will
not approve which is why they want to take away your firearms. (This is
Title 22 USC section 2551)

TURN TO PAGE 652. Here you will find the definition of what the
government means by "disarmament." The disarmament calls for the
elimination of our armed forces. It also calls for the elimination of
weapons of all kinds. (This is Title 22 USC 2552 (a)).

TURN TO PAGE 654. Here you will find it stated as item (a) "control,
reduction and elimination of armed forces..." and as Item (d)
"...Elimination of armed forces...". What you need to know is that your
armed forces are being eliminated from national control which, in turn,
wipes out our sovereignty as a nation. In two stages, we will have no
more army, no more navy, no more air force. In the third stage, we shall
have a "zero" military. Before Stage I closes, all citizen owned guns
will be banned. (This is Title 22 USC Section 2571 (a).

Public Law 87-297 is further explained in the State Department Document,
called Publication 7277. Your librarian can also furnish you a copy. Ask
the librarian to get you a copy of "The Blue Print for the Peace Race."
It is a 35 page booklet printed by the United States Arms Control and
Disarmament Agency as Publication No. 4 - General Series 3 - Released
May, 1962. Publication No. 4 is the unabridged version of State
Department Document 7277.

Both of these booklets explain how our military is to be reduced to 2.1
million men. China and the Soviets are to be reduced to that level also.
At this point, we are at Stage I at which time we are to transfer (on a
permanent basis) one-half of our armed forces to be merged with the
Russian and Chinese armies. In Stage II the remaining one-half of our
armed forces is then turned over to this same Security Council of the
United Nations. The person in charge of the merged armies must, by
agreement, always be a Russian. The world's smaller nations turn 100% of
their armies over to the same under-secretary of the Security, Council
in Stage II. President George Bush and Admiral Wm. J. Crowe [have
refered] to this process as being "in transition."

TURN TO PAGE 655. On this page in Volume 9 of the United States Code,
read "Policy Formation." The directives there (written in 1963 to pacify
objectors) are supposedly to restrain anyone fromdisarmament, reducing
or limiting our armaments, or taking guns away from the people unless it
is pursuant to the treaty-making power of the president, or if it is
authorized by further legislation by the Congress. (This is title 22,
Section 2573.)

Every couple of years the House of Representatives votes to appropriate
funds for this on-going program. Since P.L. 87-297 was first passed into
law in 1961, there have been 18 updates to it - all bad - with no
deletions of these issues I lay before you now. The Congress knows that
the plan includes the policing of the United States by foreign troops.
(The world army they are forming.) The Congress is allowing our military
bases to beclosed down, except for those which will be used by the world
army. You will find that plan in Publication 7277 and in "The Blueprint
for the Peace Race."

If the president and Congress can promote a "Constitutional Convention"
you will find yourself with two new constitutions(communist in
structure) which in one states in Article VIII, Section 12: "No person
shall bear arms or possess lethal weapons except the police and members
of the armed forces...."

TheCongress has praised these documents and is on record in Senate
hearings seeking ways to install these constitutions. Ask yourlibrarian
for "Revision of the United Nations Charter - Hearings Before a
Subcommittee (Foreign Relations) Feb. 2-20, 1950 U.S.Government Printing
Office." Nothing has changed since. They are still viable.

The ultimate goal to be reached in Stage III of the disarmament process
is to "proceed to a point where no state [nation] would have the
military power to challenge the progressively strengthened U.N. Peace
Force..."

Anyone who doubts the truthfulness of what has been presented here is
free to go to the library and go through the steps which have been
outlined above. While you are at it, look up Public Law 101-216.

Um, how much $$$ has the U.S. government spent on armed forces since JFK's day? 10 Trillion? 20?

Bob,

Thanks for this post, very interesting. I do however wonder how serious our politicians are in achieving the stated goals. The fact that the present administration is dismantleing our armed forces is common fact and this does seem to support your concerns. But look back to the Reagan and Bush administrations (well Reagan anyway), here we find a massive rebuilding of armed forces as well as US autonamy (sp?). Don't get me wrong, I'm very concerned about the state of our military and the base closings and staff and funding reductions. But IMHO it's evident that capitol hill is, with the exception of socialist in the DP, and the Gestopo administration, just playing lip service to this non-sense. Let's hope we get a GOP prez with some common sense at 1600 Penn. next election to repair the damage done by the moron in the oval office.

Why is this forum turning into a hangout for every conspiracy nutcase out there. The U.S. Code is available on-line. A cursory review of the highlighted sections above shows the author's assertions to be complete BS. The whole thing deals with creating a government agency to study and be responsible for ongoing dialog about "control, reduction, and elimination" of weapons for waging war. That is why Congress allocates money every year to this "program" because it is a federal agency and thus has a budget which Congress must approve. The author of the e-mail has taking bits and pieces out of context and twisted it (to match his apparently twisted mind as well). For example, here is Title 22 Section 2573 in its entirety: Sec. 2573. Policy formulation (a) Formulation

The Director shall prepare for the President, the Secretary of State, and the heads of such other Government agencies as the President may determine, recommendations and advice concerning United States arms control, nonproliferation, and disarmament policy. (b) Prohibition

No action shall be taken pursuant to this chapter or any other Act that would obligate the United States to reduce or limit the Armed Forces or armaments of the United States in a militarily significant manner, except pursuant to the treaty-making power of the President set forth in Article II, Section 2, Clause 2 of the Constitution or unless authorized by the enactment of further affirmative legislation by the Congress of the United States. Nothing about privately owned firearms, only about military weapons and armed forces. Also, the State Department website has no record of a publication 7277. The author's own on-line reference shows that it was nothing more than a proposal for universal disarmament, nothing close to what is being implied in this thread. Finally, the ACDA website has no indication of a "Blueprint for Peace".

"Why is this forum turning into a hangout for every conspiracy nutcase out there."

The kind of people who will embrace the Milnian view that "THE CODE IS BROKEN, IT CAN'T BE FIXED" are the same type of people who belive in UFO abductions, UN troops in Texas and poison contrails. In other words, Kooks.

Great! We're getting rid of an unconstitutional Federal standing army, just what the Founding Fathers (tm)wanted! I find it interestng that so many conservatives squall about the "original intent" of the Founding Fathers (tm) when it comes to other issues, but yet ignore the fact that a standing Federal army was the "bain of Liberty" to the men who founded this country.

Those of you who think that the Federal Govt. is a tyrant should welcome this action, rather than condemning it. Go back to the early 90's when Newt (Chicken Hawk) Gingrich was wowing the country while waving the Federalist Papers. Of course, Newt quit waving the FP when a certain Patriot, Timothy McVeigh, fulfilled the 'horrible implements of war' as a birthright of an American.
