When you absolutely, positively have to reach out and touch something powder-blue in color over 6,000 meters away.

I’m with you -this is huffing and puffing on the part of mean spirited, but stupid - liberals. They wish they could impose the international crap on us - but they can’t...

Really? They have been working on this “takeover” for about 100 years. They are so close... you think think they’ll simply walk away from this now? I think they go through with it, even with less than 2/3 votes they need for a treaty. Clearly treason and the “Declaration of Independence” kicks into affect.
He will, and every GOP senator will find an excuse to vote for it.
And I hope that my sarcasm isn’t true.
Well, there is that thorny problem for the gun-grabbers of needing a 2/3rds Senate ratification of such treaty.
When you absolutely, positively have to reach out and touch something powder-blue in color over 6,000 meters away.
GOP Senators want to get re-elected, and the gun rights movement is just too potent to disrepect in such a manner.
That does not look like any Barrett I’m familiar with.
That's already built into the Arms Treaty in such a way that even Kennedy/Roberts may swing with them and here is why.
First, a link to the text of the treaty: "The Arms Trade Treaty (A/RES/64/48)"
Excerpted below is the section of this Treaty that calls on States{nations} for an implementation:
"Calls upon all States to implement, on a national basis, the relevant recommendations contained in section VII of the report of the Group of Governmental Experts (See A/63/334)."Next is a link to the text of the referenced report: "Report of the Group of Governmental Experts to examine the feasibility, scope and draft parameters for a comprehensive, legally binding instrument establishing common international standards for the import, export and transfer of conventional arms (A/63/334)"
Excerpted below is the only one of three section (27-29) in above referenced "section VII" ("Conclusions and recommendations") dictating the responsibilities and required actions of signatory States:
29. The Group acknowledged the respective responsibilities of exporters and importers. In order to begin improving the current situation, the Group recognized the need for all States to ensure that their national systems and internal controls are at the highest possible standards, and that States in a position to do so could render assistance in this regard, upon request. {Emphasises added.}How can America agreeing to implement UN requested "internal controls" of our "nation system" of gun regulations not be surrendering American 2nd Amendment rights?
Once signing such a treaty, what should Americans expect if the UN should "request" a tighter "standard" of US "internal controls" on guns and America's elected government officials refuses to comply?
All out LAWFARE, financed by the same leftist front groups (Soros' included) to force compliance through US courts! Note the "supremacy clause" of the Constitution which provides that the “Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the constitution or laws of any state to the contrary notwithstanding.” {Emphasis added}
Name one treaty that has been superseded by the Constitution or thrown out by the courts.
I second that.
This was truly a very dirty deal.
Read up on the Downing Effect to understand Democrats. It explains why dims are willing to assume that everyone else is dumber than they are, and yet buy into socialism without a murmur of doubt.
Personally I'm hoping they actually attempt to ban guns in the United States, under the shield of the UN. The war will be very short and staggeringly bloody, once it is determined that a Final Solution to American Socialism is the only alternative...
Hmmm....The Barrett M82A3 is a semi-auto, IIRC.
Not quibbling at the sentiment, tho.
OBTW, where’s the bullet riddled blue helmet?
I mean come on, folks, Yamamoto’s nightmare has been achieved, there really could be a rifle behind every blade of grass should TSHTF. Only I’m a bit old fashioned, my M-1 Garand will have to stand in for all the whizzbang stuff at the gun shows.
What could possibly go wrong?
Something tells me if they tried to take Americans guns away, literally, they’d be starting the war they want so bad.
That’s quite a sales pitch. But the scenario won’t fly in our nation, where vast majorities on both the left and right are now so much in favor of Second Amendment. Firearms are in style.
It’s a Windrunner by EDM Arms. A takedown .50 that fits into a case not much bigger than a suitcase.
