The guy on the phone was right, and I’m not a member of the NRA. The UN is attempting to create an international treaty that restricts gun ownership, including in America.

Go look it up on Al Gore fantastic internet.

50 Million gun owners?

Try closer to 100 Million.

The Constitution says, “This 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”

However, this clause also provides a fairly obvious hierarchy of authority: Constitution, federal laws, treaties. Thus a treaty simply cannot override the Constitution. As the Supreme Court has ruled many times.

Not constitutionally, that is. Lord knows what some group will attempt to do.
