Conspiracy Theories for Breakfast at Values Voter Summit
Submitted by Peter Montgomery on Friday, 10/11/2013 10:04 am
Early this morning, before the official opening of the Values Voter Summit, the Religious Right legal and advocacy group Liberty Counsel hosted Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition, a breakfast panel on threats to the Second Amendment. On the menu: conspiracy theories about President Barack Obama and the United Nations plotting to disarm Americans, and rhetoric of resistance.
In addition to Liberty Counsels Mat Staver, the speakers were the Family Research Councils Ken Blackwell (also a board member of the National Rifle Association) and gun-rights advocate Jan Morgan, who also appeared at Liberty Counsels Awakening conference earlier this year.
Morgan portrayed a United Nations treaty meant to restrict the illegal international trade in weapons as a UN plot to take Americans guns (false), and the Obama administrations decision to sign the treaty as an ominous step. Blackwell portrayed the assault on the Second Amendment as an assault on the Constitution and on God himself, warning that nations that fall to tyranny or big-government socialism first must destroy the family, silence the church, and disarm their citizens. The Obama administration, he said, thinks it has replaced God in peoples lives. Asked how Americans should respond to the signing of the treaty, he said, resist, resist, resist.
