The UN Small Arms Treaty Talks Are Getting Serious – Where’s The Outrage?

From March 18-28 the United Nations will again meet with an updated draft to try to finalize passage of its Small Arms Treaty. However it doesn’t seem to be a story, despite being less than 24 hours away. Conservative blogs and sites are as guilty as the Mainstream Media. Almost no one is speaking out against a Treaty that has the ability to change America, and the world as we know it, forever.
To give credit where credit is due I will say that the NRA has not dropped this fight. It just seems that most everyone else views it as a non-story. As of this morning I found six total sources reporting the story within the last two days. I consider that unacceptable. Here is a quote from NRA opposes U.N. arms treaty, which was published earlier today in The Washington Post:

Prison Planet.com » Why Are Preppers Hated So Much?
Have you noticed that it has become trendy to bash preppers? For a long time the prepper movement was ignored, but now it has become so large that it is getting very difficult for the mainstream media to pretend that it is not there.
In fact, it has been estimated that there are now approximately 3 million preppers in the United States alone. So now the mainstream media has decided that mocking the movement is the best strategy, and lots of “critics” and “skeptics” out there have picked up on this trend. Instead of addressing the very real issues that have caused millions of Americans to prepare for the worst, those criticizing the prepper movement attempt to put the focus on individual personalities.
They try to find the strangest nutjobs they possibly can and then hold them up as “typical preppers”. The goal is to portray preppers as tinfoil hat wearing freaks that need to be locked up in the loony bin for their own personal safety and for the good of society. The criticism of preppers has really ramped up in recent months, and it will likely get even worse in 2013. The establishment does not like any movement that is outside of their control, and the prepper movement is definitely not under their control.
The Colorado Movie Massacre and Gun Control (“As horrible as the massacre in that movie theater was, it was only the latest incident of its kind and, believe it or not, will soon dim as even worse acts of man’s inhumanity to man continues.”)
At the risk of seeming insensitive to the deaths in the Colorado movie massacre, I am going to point out the obvious, which may make us flinch.
As horrible as the massacre in that movie theater was, it was only the latest incident of its kind and, believe it or not, will soon dim as even worse acts of man’s inhumanity to man continues.
Bodies are stacking up like cord wood around the world. and, frankly, that is nothing new. Since Cain and Able, man has sought the death of his fellowman. We seem to be hard-wired to take our brother’s life. (Told you it might make you flinch.)
The Jokers of the Mainstream Media
(“Our liberal Mainstream Media (MSM) has few qualms about stoking racial resentment”) Family Security Matters
Our liberal Mainstream Media (MSM) has few qualms about stoking racial resentment. For example, we all know who the late Rodney King was. Why? Because we were bombarded with reports of his beating by members of the Los Angeles Police Department. Having seen the video countless times as every other American over forty has, I’m persuaded the police were much more violent than the situation seems to have called for – beating King with a nightstick after he was prone and kicking him as well. That’s very difficult to justify.
Their acquittal led to the worst black riots in LA history, killing 53 people, injuring 2383, starting 7000 fires, damaging 3100 businesses, and numerous black racist assaults against whites and Koreans.
Prison Planet.com » Can You Answer 25 Difficult Questions That The Mainstream Media Does Not Seem To Have Answers To?
The mainstream news just seems to get sillier and shallower with each passing day. Our world is becoming incredibly unstable, corruption is everywhere, we are on the verge of another massive economic crisis, government debt is absolutely exploding, war could erupt in the Middle East at any time and signs of deep social decay are everywhere and yet the mainstream media seems absolutely obsessed with reporting on celebrities and scandals.
It would be nice if the mainstream media would do a lot more true investigative reporting and would actually try to answer some of the difficult questions that we are being faced with. Unfortunately, most of what passes for “news” these days is essentially just “infotainment”. That is one of the reasons why we have seen such a surge in the popularity of alternative news outlets in recent years. People are searching for the truth, and they know that they are not getting much of it from the mainstream media these days.
(“…Are you as tired as I am of hearing…”) Lynn Stuter — The reality of the Trayvon Martin fiasco
Are you as tired as I am of hearing the black entitlement crowd demand “justice” for “poor little Trayvon Martin”? Note: there is a great deal of difference between blacks who have worked to get where they are and the black entitlement crowd who figures “cracker” (a black racial slur for whites) owes them something.
Are you as tired as I am of seeing the pictures of Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman used by the mainstream media that were chosen purely because of the image the mainstream media wanted to impart, images that are biased and untrue to the reality?
Are you as tired as I am of the mainstream media twisting the facts to suit the racist agenda they are promoting?
Are you as tired as I am of the Republicans sitting on their hands, looking at the floor, and saying nothing while the New Black Panther Party – best buds of the illegal alien in the White House who favors his black side, and of Eric Holder, the black racist and bigot – is allowed to get away with putting a bounty on the head of George Zimmerman?
Military Scandal, Media Blackout
Let me preface the facts of this column with two disclosures: first, I have a deep and abiding respect for the United States military. With rare exception these people are and have been some of the finest Americans who have ever lived. Currently, they are asked to put their lives on the line even as they are constrained by absurdities such as the Rules of Engagement, pipe dream counter-insurgency tactics known as “winning hearts and minds,” and the political machinations of an administration more than willing to use them as pawns in a bid for re-election.
Second, I have equal amounts of contempt for a mainstream media, which is neither mainstream, nor remotely interested in reporting the truth, if it interferes with their agenda.
Here are the facts: on November 10th, a United States military court convicted Sgt. Calvin Gibbs, 26, for his participation in a “kill team” which deliberately targeted and subsequently murdered three Afghan civilians. Three co-defendants had previously pleaded guilty, and two testified against him.

…Video of that attack went viral on the internet prompted mainstream media – which had mostly ignored the protests – to give them sympathetic attention. Computer hackers also released the name and address of the officer caught on film. Since then the occupation has garnered many new supporters and global press attention…..

Big Time Scandals by Obama Administration Too Small for Investigation by Mainstream Media?
Big Time Scandals by Obama Administration Too Small for Investigation by Mainstream Media?
Big Time Scandals by Obama Administration Too Small for Investigation by Mainstream Media?:
Surely you must have heard about them through the mainstream media consisting of the major news organizations of TV and major daily newspapers.
You haven’t? It’s understandable because the mainstream media does not like to print any incidence of negativity or undesirable behavior on the part of any Obama Administration or government personnel and has been noticeably silent on the reporting of these scandals.
As part of the cover-up, those media organizations including the major daily newspapers such as the Boston Globe, New York Times, Washington Post and other major cities leading newspapers along with the major TV networks ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC have reported so little information and so very infrequently so as to be almost non-existent, or a scandal in itself on lack of reporting these government scandals……….

Global Research, April 21, 2011
So far, 2011 has been a tumultuous year, and we’ve only just begun. War and militarization are being passed off by mainstream media as “humanitarian intervention“; our environment and health are being compromised to protect investments and corporate interests; poverty is running rampant in every corner of the world, and yet still we are expected to pay for unjust wars and corrupt financial schemes at great expense to us and our families.
The writers who contribute articles to Global Research are dedicated to stopping this tide of disinformation and making real information available. Thanks to their commitment and sacrifice, we can start to change the system through increased awareness.
Often, however, journalists pay a high personal and professional price for telling the truth. Professional journalists committed to truth in media are invariably penalized by their corporate employers. They are pressured into accepting media disinformation as routine, as part of the job. They are encouraged to skim the surface or to convey half truths.
This is a system which rewards mediocrity. Those who lie are promised fame, funding and career advancement. Those who refuse to abide by the standards of the mainstream media are not only fired, they are blacklisted and their prospects extinguished. Journalists who have the courage to say the truth find themselves marginalized and excluded, and therefore often driven into poverty. Indeed, a considerable number of journalists who contribute to Global Research find themselves in this predicament.
Global Research has therefore initiated a fundraising campaign to assist journalists, researchers and contributors who have either lost their jobs with the mainstream media or who have been excluded from employment opportunities as professional journalists. As part of our mandate to deliver independent news and analysis to the broader public, we believe it is important to support and encourage journalists in their endeavours.
We know that our readers turn to Global Research for independent coverage of world events which is not coloured, created or manipulated by corporate, government or insitutional stakeholders. Therefore, we ask you to support us in supporting the writers who continue to bring you the material you need in order to understand what’s happening in the world around you………………
Should Main Stream Media MSM control the internet?
Most of us are probably old enough to remember when the mainstream media controlled EVERY SINGLE WORD that was spoken, written, viewed and heard. The public library was about what the MSM wanted.
Letters to the editor was what the MSM approved. Actually it was not that long ago.Average people like you and I couldn’t make a web page or write our own blog or add a comment unless the owners of the MSM approved it. They controlled every aspect of the media and every aspect of what your peers in society read and saw.
I know about you, but I don’t wish to go back to those days. We need full net neutrality for all Americans.The MSM wants to have that control over us again and they want to end the right of websites such as your own blog, and Free Republic and others unless they will pay the tariff and exorbitant amount for special mainstream tier access.
I’ve already informed my Congressman and Senator that we need an unlimited, uncensored right to comment and compose on the internet, and do not want the MSM limiting what we have to say – not that 100K deposited in their bank accounts won’t change their mind.
