Repeal "Right to Self-Protection"
A proposal to repeal a previously passed resolution
Category: Repeal
Resolution: #94
Proposed by: Vacatti
Description: UN Resolution #94: Right to Self-Protection (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
Argument: The Right to Self Protection is a flawed resolution that should never have been passed. It is a resolution that legalizes private militias and has extreme room of flexibility when it comes to loopholes.
The flawed thought that every should have the right to defend themselves or their property with whatever force they feel is necessary, is extremely wrong.
Many people can use this law as an excuse to carefully engineer a situation where they can be rid of a person they dislike or want dead. This law before being re-passed needs more stringent controls. It needs to be stronger in the wording as well.
The idea that everyone should have the ability to defend others property or others period brings up the question of why we are authorizing privite militias.
The police are the organization set forth in place to protect people and the property of people. We should not allow for private militias as we will be virtually sanctioning gang violence.
Gang violence can fit in very easy into this because they can claim they are protecting their "turf" or a fellow gang member and this can cause "turf wars" and other violent complications that cause the police to divert their attention from other emergencies to the ever increasing problem of gang violence.
This resolution must be repealed so that member nations will not be plagued any longer by the epidemic of violence that this resolution is causing. This resolution has instead of improved worldwide human and civil rights, it has hurt them, because innocent people no longer can walk the streets with the same piece of mind as before.
In Conclusion, this resolution must be repealed at all costs as it adds the right to private militia which not only undermines the authority of the government, but provides an alternate authority in regard to military matters.
Private citizens ought not to be able to have their own militia to protect themselves without the regulation of such being made clear.
Approvals: 6 (Weissborg, Ternalaria, WZ Forums, Invicible Burninator, Ellenburg, Compulsoria)
Status: Lacking Support (requires 107 more approvals)
Voting Ends: Sun Nov 18 2007
I am posting this to garnish support for this very important resolution, as you read above, this issue is critically in need of being addressed by the UN. And a vote to repeal the fundamentally wrong Resolution of Self-protection is a step in the right direction to ending the use of private militias.
