Muslims Use U.N. to Suppress Free Speech

Just as communists are trying to use the United Nations to redistribute wealth in the name of the global warming hoax, Muslims are using it to suppress the right of free speech worldwide:
Islamic states are bidding to use the United Nations to limit freedom of expression and belief around the world, the global humanist body IHEU [International Humanist and Ethical Union] told the U.N.'s Human Rights Council on Wednesday.
In a statement submitted to the 48-nation Council, the IHEU said the 57 members of the Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC) were also aiming to undermine the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
"The Islamic states see human rights exclusively in Islamic terms, and by sheer weight of numbers this view is becoming dominant within the U.N. system. The implications for the universality of human rights are ominous," it said.
Ominous is putting it mildly. One of the best reasons I can think of to own a gun is that you'll need it when foreigners in blue helmets come to take it away.
