The new United Nations Treaty is being designed to disarm all citizens of every nation on Earth. The treaty will give all governments a free hand to do as they please. It is making headway in Washington D.C. and it is feared that President Obama may very well try to use the treaty to consolidate his power in America. The treaty specifics are now being negotiated and Obama has given the OK For the U.S. to be a part of the negotiations.

Expect the untoward.
Onward untoward victory?
Eh, don’t put amazing idiocy beyond Congress. The further into the future we slip, the more stupid we must endure from them.
“No they won’t....”
True, unfortunately, in spite of all the huffing and puffing.
Revolution? I’m in.
Never owned a gun. Never wanted to. But if this passes, I may change my mind.
Treaties cannot violate the Constitution, even if ratified by whatever means. So long as we have the 5 justices that held for Heller, this is non-sense.
If the Democrats tried something like this, they'd be out of power for a generation. There's a reason that Obama has been in office for 1.5 years and not a single gun-control measure has come to the ANY committee for a vote. There is no appetite for gun control in the US, and the Dems know it.
Are you an Ohioan in Texas or a Texan in Ohio? Either way, both states are strong on gun rights. Hookem Buckeyes!
If it passes it will be too late. The laws of supply and demand are such that if you want to get a gun now, or if you think you might want one in the future, you better git it now.
SECTION 4?
The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.
Or a different section?
People are too comfortable in their lives to have another revolution. Besides, the only way a revolution could be fought again is through the use of explosives. Those that do use explosives are derided by even 2nd amendment advocates. Revolution requires offensive strikes, not just hiding a gun in your attic insulation just in case.
That is complete and utter nonsense,this isn't the UK.
The first two battles of the American revolution, Lexington and Concord, were fought over guns. The British moved to consolidate power by confiscating guns and the Americans said no.
a treaty can't override the constitution.
Notice that UAV circling overhead? Wonder what those thingys are hanging off the pylons?
ObamaCare... Clearing the Path with Hellfire for a Disamed Nation..
Welcome to FR.
BTW: We were two of that 55% long before the poll.
(Exactly how you go about getting one is between you and the guy wearing it..)
It’s better to be proactive than reactive. Get a gun tomorrow.
We. shall. see.
One would hope that if it came down to it, there would be resistance by any means necessary, including lethal force, to defend the linchpin of the Constitution. But hope won't buy the groceries. I have a feeling that the time is coming when "We shall see"...what latterday America is made of.
When guns are outlawed and someone is caught with one they will be labeled a terrorist, as was the MM. They will be lied about in the media, as was the MM. They will be vilified in such a manner that even 2nd amendment “advocates” will be afraid to voice support of them.
When the ATF burned the Branch Dravidian compound in Waco was a time to revolt. 1 person acted in an offensive manner by blowing up a building and is derided as a nutcase by even 2nd amendment advocates. That is what revolution is. It's ugly. It's violent. It has innocent victims along with the intended ones. America doesn't have the stomach for it anymore.
I'm sorry you disagree. I hope I'm wrong, but I've watched the voting public roll over and take restriction after restriction, each time erasing their line in the sand and moving it a little further down the field; only to erase it and move it again when the next restriction comes along.
