Don’t believe Obama if he tells you the sky is blue.
Thisthing needs to go down in flames with extreme prejudice.
DOA (hopefully).
I’d ask — Who ya talkin bout, but don’t want anyone getin in trouble.../SARC
Corker may offer to stand the Constitution on its head again.
My Senators are Chuck U Schumer and Gillibrand. I don’t waste my time.
The county percentages for the presidential election came out recently 46 counties for Trump and 16 for Clinton (5 counties in NYC Alone...almost a third of Clinton’s plurality )
NY By county positively destroyed Clinton. Without NYC it’s a red state.
My Long Island county of Suffolk creamed Clinton.
Absolute attempt to invalidate our Constitution, strip our sovereignty and infringe our 2A rights via a foreign power.
Yes they seek to limit our guns while they sell arms for billions all over the planet. Shall we disarm ourselves and let them keep theirs?
No doubt. And in 80% of all homes, there will be cheering. (And in Nanny Bloomers house tears, which is the same as cheering for normal people)
Heitkamp and Manchin will not vote for this if they want to be reelected. Maybe others...
Who is up for election in 2018. Let’s start picking them off now.
The treaty seeks to make the world safe for tyrants.

Article and comments
Thanks, PROCON
And he's right, because it's going into the dumpster at light speed.
It’s irrelevant and means nothing and a treaty can’t override the Constitution. A treaty has the force only of a statute, not of a constitution.
The U.S. Supreme Court has made it very clear that
1) Treaties do not override the U.S. Constitution.
2) Treaties cannot amend the Constitution. And last,
3) A treaty can be nullified by a statute passed by the U.S. Congress (or by a sovereign State or States if Congress refuses to do so), when the State deems a treaty the performance of a treaty is self-destructive. The law of self-preservation overrules the law of obligation in others.
Reid v. Covert:
A plurality of the justices in the 1957 case of Reid v. Covert, which enforced the Fifth and Sixth Amendments against a contradictory treaty, recognized such limits on the Treaty Power.
As the plurality wrote of the Supremacy Clause, “There is nothing in this language which intimates that treaties and laws enacted pursuant to them do not have to comply with the provisions of the Constitution.”
I thought this was the UNODA Arms Trade Treaty they voted on on DECEMBER 24, 2014. The date seemed unusually suspicious to me at the time. Who would be there to oppose it that were Christians? Oh gotcha that was the point...
DOA.
You could barely pistol whip someone with that POC...lol
TADSLOS :" Absolute attempt to invalidate our Constitution, strip our sovereignty and infringe our 2A rights via a foreign power. "
yeah ,..right !
When has O'Bungler ever told the truth about anything ?
I am still awaiting my $2500.oo health insurance rebate,..but not holding my breath.
He wants to "strip our sovereignty and infringe our 2A rights via a foreign power. "
Besides not securing the Southern border, he and the Dept. of "JUST-US" armed the very same drug cartels that are coming across that same unprotected border
O'Bungler is a Soros globalist, with a globalist agenda that ignores our Constitution, just as much as he ignores the Constitution ... and the citizens,
until its election time !
Senators ..... better not do it . Primary their seditious asses back to the ice age if they do.
"If it saves just one child's life, isn't it worth it?"
Yeah, now let's see him take that line about #Pizzagate.
