On Wednesday the Obama administration took its first major step in a plan to ban all firearms in the United States. The Obama administration intends to force gun control and a complete ban on all weapons for US citizens through the signing of international treaties with foreign nations. By signing international treaties on gun control, the Obama administration can use the US State Department to bypass the normal legislative process in Congress. Once the US Government signs these international treaties, all US citizens will be subject to those gun laws created by foreign governments. These are laws that have been developed and promoted by organizations such as the United Nations and individuals such as George Soros and Michael Bloomberg. The laws are designed and intended to lead to the complete ban and confiscation of all firearms.
The Obama administration is attempting to use tactics and methods of gun control that will inflict major damage to our 2nd Amendment before US citizens even understand what has happened. Obama can appear before the public and tell them that he does not intend to pursue any legislation (in the United States) that will lead to new gun control laws, while cloaked in secrecy, his Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton is committing the US to international treaties and foreign gun control laws. Does that mean Obama is telling the truth? What it means is that there will be no publicized gun control debates in the media or votes in Congress.

I recall being taught in college that a treaty is able to take precedence over the constitution. But in reading a few articles on the subject it looks like the senate is barred from even considering a treaty that contradicts the constitution.
This appears to be a hoax (thankfully), but the constitutional / treaty issue is no small matter of understanding.
Thank you for correcting me.
How are we going to even know about it unless or until the blue hats come knocking at our doors to confiscate? By then it will be too late. Zero apparently intends to shut off our means of communiation and our ONLY means of getting the real news and truth. We’ll be left just AS clueless about what’s really happening as most of the moronic lefties. He just keeps going and going, like the energizer bunny, and he’s just gettin started.
And yet here we sit, still.
Absolutely amazing.
This article is a bunch of hyperbole.
Nah! Ya think?
Is it a hoax that Zero is pro-UN, which is anti-gun ownership? Is it a hoax that Zero is a Marxist Chicago thug with a s-load of commie czars that is intent on controlling every aspect of our lives (and deaths)?
I’ll tell you what the hoax is. Anyone that tries to say otherwise.
And if he has declared martial law...for 'some' reason? What then?
Not necessarily. If they pass the Deathcare crap, and certain states secede (opt out) there very well could be another Civil War.
You guys are talking ‘as if’ this administration gives a rolling crap about the constitution and what it says.
The reality is...they DON’T!
After everything that’s happened, you still don’t get that?
Amazing.
Present.
Key word. Not 2/3 of the Senate, but 2/3 of those present.
Would it be beyond the Obamites to engineer a favorable assemblage before bringing the matter up in the Senate?
With all of the crap they have pulled thus far, you know it would not.
Although the Oath Keepers are geared towards gathering Active, Reserve and "Retired" Military/LEO, any patriot can join. If you have never taken the "Oath", you can join or support this group and they will "administer" the Oath at your first meeting. Go to the main site and you will be able to join your State chapter of OK.
A lot of the Oath Keepers and other Patriots also hang out here:

I don't know of course, but I would bet that your number is a bitlow.
Facts be damn'ed that there's no SB 2099 in this Senate eh?
Nice defense you have going there.
I'm proud to say I wasn't one of those people, who are just as nuts as some on this thread who never bothered to see if the supposed bill even existed in the first place.
Yep, I've been around a long time and I guess you're right> some things never change.
And the fact that there is no such treaty? What about that?
Look, I despise the current Marxist occupier of the White House as much as the next (reasonably sane) guy. But some people just let their emotions run away with them and seemingly never bother to stop and fact-check whether something's accurate or not.
Lord knows there's plenty of FACTUAL things like his constant DITHERING on AFGHANISTAN while our soldiers die to hold him accountable for, rather than knee-jerk reacting to an internet RUMOR that up until my post #46?) on this thread that no one bothered to stop and see if it was true or not.
I'm just sayin ......
It would not be hard to starve out the liberal cesspool cities and cut power and communication lines. Wait them out and pick em off on the way out .
Oh Please...
A US President cannot sign away the Bill of Rights..
In a treaty or otherwise..
We all know the UN is a bunch of incompetent corrupt boobs Much like our own current US Leadership Republi-Con and Demon-Crat alike.
Why give them credit for being anything else?
Why give a Crap what treaty who signs?
The American people will simply refuse to comply when they try to enforce it.
Want an International Tax? Watch that one turn into a referendum on all taxes.. Want to disarm the American People.. Well good luck (sarc).
In the small arms race it is the worlds Armies and Police at 50 million small Arms (maybe). The US Citizenry 110 million small arms.
Armed troops and Police world wide.. 50 million? Armed US Citizenry 90 million..
That’s one Arms race would be tyrants of the world have already lost.
Like a walnut sized brained Dinosaur they just don’t know it yet.
