Treaties are made to be broken, just ask any Indian. Still, we should get out of the UN and kick them out.

There still is not 67 votes in the senate for it. Obama can sign it a hundred times but it is not going to be ratified.

It will never be ratified in the Senate. Not even Obamas Senate.EXACTLY! Just like when Scott Brown was elected, there was no way they were going to be able to pass Obamacare.
Oh, wait......

“The Constitution supercedes treaties, not the other way around.”
WRONG! All native American treaties supercede it. Upheld three times by SCOTUS.

Correct. And I don't give a rat's a$$ if a senate ratifies it.
They're know that we would start shooting at them if they passed something like this so, it's a no-go.

IIRC, it only takes fifty-one senators to be present to conduct business. two-thirds of that is thirty four. That would be all it would take for it to be ratified.
Coming soon...

There are 20 dem senators who are up for re-election in 2014.
One would think that those not in heavily dem states would think twice before ratifying this so-called treaty.

At your door is far too late; the secret of guerrilla-warfare, and indeed all warfare, is to make the enemy fight on your terms.

Who said I would forget?
I’ve been accused of paranoia before.

House surrounded by state of the art sensors ?
Family all tucked away invulnerable somewhere ?
Resistance cells alerted to radio at first sign of enemy movement ?
Point is, we're all vulnerable somewhere/sometime, and that applies equally to the enemy.
But you already knew that's what I meant.

Not even Obamas Senate. Correct. Because it takes 67% of the Senate to ratify a treaty.
So long as at least 34 (of 45) Republicans in the Senate stand their ground, all these UN-sponsored Treaties are dead in the water.

I dont see 2/3rds of the Senate ratifying this and WE Control the Congress. As previously noted, agree with you on the Senate.
However, the House has no voice in treaty ratification.

Does the Constitution protect the privacy of your gun-ownership, and the freedom from being regulated?
That means every firearm, its various parts and ammunition will be regulated. And you, the "end-user," will earn the privilege of having your name recorded in an international registry.

You got a really bad attitude, pal. You should be thinking no less than two.
