The principal violations attendant to the are ESA pursuant to the powers required to enforce those treaties it cites from which it derives its "authority" (see USC Title 16, Section 1531), is one of limitations on enumerated powers, but it does extend to the unconstitutional taking of the use of private property, frequently.
By failing to address that you neglected to cite a treaty that has been voided, you have shown that your post was grossly in error.

Actually, there was a recent case in one of the western circuits where the EPA was ruled to have exceeded it’s constitutional authority by imposing penalties against a property owner for what I believe was digging on his land.
Also, interesting your article cites and praises the DC/Heller case as an example where the courts got it right. With over 100 million firearms owners in this country there’s no reason to believe a 2/3 treaty vote will simply cause those millions of people to just surrender their guns at the snap of a finger. The legal challenges would be overwhelming and that would include state nullification on a large scale, like we’re beginning to see with the Obamacare ruling.
With the large number of citizens involved, it’s not quite the slam dunk you make it out to be.
The treaty of course should be stopped nevertheless.
