This is yet another step toward the imposition of world government by way of treaty obligation. Under international law, treaties supersede national law and oblige their signatories to enforce all relevant provisions by use of their domestic authorities. In the case of firearms, I'll let you dwell on what that would mean for us.
Worse, once a treaty is ratified, it cannot simply be renounced in the future - the other state signatories must agree to let another member revoke their adherence to it. In essence, any nation that submits to one of these agreements cedes a portion of its sovereignty; sign enough such documents and for freedom-loving people, it truly is: "game over".
Blue Helmets make wonderful colanders after receiving the proper Patriot treatment.
As does ANY helmet that acting under an unconstitutional u.n. treaty, whether it’s blue or not.
“SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED”
LLS
Here we go again, overriding the Constitution through treaty.
final vote in 2012? Well, we should be well on the rocks by then at the present pace. The Marxist snake venom coursing through the Republic’s veins, as we speak, will most likely have killed the Republic by then.
That is unless the anti-venom has been injected by the American people by flooding courageous, principled, Constitutional, patriots onto both floors of the congress.
It is coming up on High Noon for a Republic on it’s deathbed. The time for compromise is OVER!
If people compromise their vote in 2010 by electing compromising politicians it will come as no surprise when those polaticians compromise away their liberty and dollars.
It is time for America’s New First party!
It is time for America’s only true conservative party!
It is time for the Constitution Party!
Saddle up for 2010! We’ve got a Republic to raise!
He can sign it. Then let's see him ENFORCE it.
To all of the “FMCDH” rhetoric:
No, they won’t come to your door to confiscate.
Thing is, your purchase/resupply options will evaporate.
Anyone looking to buy a new Glock? Beretta? Taurus? FN? HK?
Interested in C&R from ... well, any “new” C&R is pretty much non-US now, right?
How about feeding what you’ve got with Wolf? Aguila? military surplus?
Come time to repair what you’ve got, where are those parts made?
Really - what percentage of the arms market in the USA is imported?
Heck, the US doesn’t have to sign this treaty for major impact on us.
Get a few key signatories (Russia, Brazil, Germany, Austria, Belgium, etc.) and our options dwindle fast.
FMCDH - sure.
Remember that war is more about attrition than obliteration.
This is a big ol' trip wire to a lot of folks out here in "fly-over" Country. There's a reason most calibers of ammo are VERY hard to find.
And a lot of cheap available ammo is from Eastern EU military or otherwise surplus.
If this is pushed, it will be like pouring gasoline on a fire.
Are there enough people in MA who even give a sh*t to stand up for themselves?
“globally binding”... Don’t need to read further. This piece of sludge stinks as much as the Law of the Sea Treaty that’s still alive and kicking.
Let your congress critters know that this is unacceptable and should never be ratified by the US.
my cold dead hands
I don’t care what people say.
The Birchers were right about dang near everything.
