14   Link   Speak Out: Control Arms Now!
Each year, hundreds of thousands of people are killed, injured, raped, and forced to flee from their homes as a result of the poorly controlled global arms trade. In July 2012 governments will come together to negotiate a global treaty to better regulate this deadly trade – and they must do so in order to save lives and livelihoods.

By adding your voice in support of a bulletproof Arms Trade Treaty, you demonstrate that there is widespread support for a strong and effective treaty. That’s why we are asking you to join us and SPEAK OUT to urge governments to CONTROL ARMS NOW.
