Microsoft Violates Human Rights in China
gexen writes "According to this article in The Guardian, 'Amnesty believes Microsoft is in violation of a new United Nations Human Rights code for multinationals which says businesses should 'seek to ensure that the goods and services they provide will not be used to abuse human rights'. The article basically states that 'Gate's firm supplied technology used to trap Chinese dissidents'."
For some reason, most gun owners automatically think they are being targetted by those activities.
As gun owners, we are. I haven't heard of a piece of gun legislation yet that didn't at least indirectly target owners of firearms who intend to use them only for legitimate purposes. I don't know what this has to do with my "self-image." I think you must be trying to suggest that because gun laws are intended to restrict criminal activity, I only react because I see myself as some kind of criminial. This reminds me of a similar statement made by those in support of govt attempts to restrict privacy: Why should you be concerned about your privacy if you haven't done anything wrong?
