a day of resistance across america with more than one hundred rallies to be held across the nation over gun laws but thousands are not coming out and support her weapons control instead they're angry at efforts to regulate americans right to bear arms and as all she's going to reports now their resistance may not stop at mia rallies. part of america now favor some form of gun control especially in the wake of tragic mass shootings. while the other is getting ready to fight against any significant regulations they're preparing for what they call the invasion of feds by arming themselves to the teeth were more like it we actually got two that are running them quicker than open now that you know we're out of that and we're just now getting really qualified by rule of law yes that is the basis of. a police chief in pennsylvania mark kessler is training private citizens to become snipers and resist what they call

a tyrannical government if need be trust me when i tell you this i mean i will take my uniform off and i will stand with freedom before it's down with the ironical folks absolutely not i will not in any way shape or form support anything that goes against the constitution or the second amendment sheriff associations from eleven states said they would ignore any law passed in washington that would significantly regulate guns we won't enforce federal regulations or federal laws we're not required to there's a separation of powers in and we won't there is a tradition in american thought. of states doing what they want despite what the federal government says of course that led to the civil war well now we see a revival of the same kind of philosophy well we don't like what washington says so we're going to do our own thing we have the right to do it well no they don't they're part of this country whether they like it or not and and federal laws will be enforced. the obama administration says they're not going to take away people's

guns they just want to ban certain types of assault rifles which are more appropriate for war then for civilian defense but which have become the weapon of choice used in mass shootings in america the administration also wants to enforce background checks on all gun sales currently forty percent of weapons in the u.s. are sold without any background check but gun rights advocates see it as the first step towards disarming the nation there will be more bad likes to lead a belt to our in the future ok the people who got to do that would do that while people like jim are gearing up for the second coming of hitler supporters of gun control points to staggering statistics the gun murder rate in the us is almost twenty times higher than in the next twenty two richest nations combined that's unimaginable in any other industrial democracy that an argument would be made in favor of owning guns for the purposes of overthrowing the

government and made by the high court the solution here is making democracy stronger. by guns because i want to strike a curio america is split over priorities according to the pew research center currently fifty percent of americans say controlling gun ownership is the more important priority while forty six percent say it is to protect the right of americans to own guns people choose different ways to stand up for liberty as they see it one owner of a pizza shop in virginia beach. offers a fifteen percent discount to those who come in with guns all they have to do is show me that they're carrying a weapon. or they can show me their concealed weapons permit and they can get a discount miscellany says eighty percent of his customers have brought guns into the pizza shop since he introduced the deal one even came in with an a k forty seven you one question of why is this when people here talk about protecting their

freedoms with weapons that are designed for war to these people have such a little tossed in their democratic system to the point when they think of vote is not enough to secure their rights and that they need a stack of deadly weapons at home to do that in washington and punish again. rebel forces in syria start bombing has valastro holes on the border with lebanon and later this hour we are quite a big showdown a part of why the campaign to destabilize the region and change the balance of power and. also later the french president will get a peace prize for his military intervention in mali website and the message the u.n. ascending would be nomination in just a few months. hundreds of palestinian demonstrators have clashed with israeli security forces in a part of the west bank that's already witnessed a week of protests they buy and tires and hold rocks as police fire some grenades in response injuring dozens protestors parks the streets in solidarity with

a pressure and more action not just warts because i think. if you will palestinian prisoners in a very critical situation and really we have a real concern about their life. and israel is courting controversy elsewhere too as a u.s. company gets permission to search for women the occupied golan heights and destroy the lands being considered part of c. where we've got the details ahead for you. also nordic france angst iceland is a move to become the first western country to buy internet pornography as a freedom of speech activists worried it's paving the way to more censorship. great britain has been stripped of its prized a aaa credit rating with agency behind the downgrade saying there is years more trouble ahead for the u.k. economists say fears of a triple dip recession and continued starvation all healed rating agency moody's

decision london is currently in the midst of a massive austerity campaign and maintaining its pristine rating is one of the reasons for it richard i react to the downgrade the finance minister says he makes kind of doubly important but professor of economics john crosswise promise santa clara university doesn't hold out much hope. this is just the beginning of a continued slowing in the u.k. economy and also its implications not just in the u.k. but elsewhere the quantitative easing it may help your banking system but it doesn't really grow the economy results the loss. so the long run perspective for the u.k. is even more deficits and debt leaving the e.u. is whale trying to protect the bank the london banks which is number one priority the chairman of course you know in the euro zone is a shift less austerity more financial transaction taxes more tax in the bank system and i think cameron's these are coming and he's going to try to shield the london

encouraging others to follow the example of the french or invading africa of occupied territories in africa it's an invasion on behalf of nato and the us and its ethical troops and is aimed at the economic and political interests of empire and particularly of france the problem here is that this is a political crisis it can be resolved only by political means by sending in the warriors the troops the planes and the bombings actually doesn't resolve them as we can see it's actually exacerbating all that and they claim that they have been invited to come into mali by a government really just being an illegitimate government and it's outrageous that the u.n. should do so should such or such a policy i guess that unesco feels that this is what what needs to be rewarded.
