Treaties must be ratified. It takes 67 votes to ratify a treaty in the Senate. 67 Senators, whether Dem or Pub, will not ratify to confiscate United States citizens’ guns under the United Nations.
“67 Senators, whether Dem or Pub, will not ratify to confiscate United States citizens’ guns under the United Nations.”
Ratification would definitely start a shooting war.
First of all, the treaty would not actually say that, they are idiots, but not that dumb.
Secondly this administration would take almost any treaty or statutory language and "interpret" it to allow them to do whatever it is they want to do. They've already done that in other areas. No reason why they wouldn't do it again. (They couldn't get cap and tax through soon enough, so they just declared carbon dioxide to be a pollutant and gave EPA authority to regulate it. No nasty old sausage making required. Stroke of the pen, law of the land.
The man, and I use the term loosely, is already in violation of the Constitution, since the day he took, or didn't take as the case may be, the oath of office.
Doesn’t matter what they pass. We keep our guns, and defend ourselves violently from anyone who claims they have signed a tteaty that takes them away.
The second amendment doesn’t GRANT us the right to firearm. It RECOGNIZES a pre-existing natural right of man to keep and bear arms.
No treaty can take that right away. Anyone who claims it does is a literal enemy who had better keep their distance. Many gun owners would never go after them, but would violently resist any move to enforce the treaty.
