On August 24 officials from the Obama administration will be attending the UN Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) conference in Mexico City.
The ATT was signed by Secretary of State John Kerry on September 25, 2013 but never ratified by the US Senate. Nevertheless, Gun Owners of America reports that Obama officials will be in Mexico City for the conference.
Breitbart News previously reported that the ATT is an international gun control treaty designed to be implemented apart from, or in spite of, the general framework of governance for countries that are signatories to it.
Thus, while it will not do away with the Second Amendment on paper, it will subjugate the Second Amendment to the ATT’s gun controls if Obama administration officials return and implement the plans they will discuss in Mexico City.
ATT was pushed under the guise of stopping “small arms [and] light weapons” from crossing borders. And when it was being discussed in 2013, Breitbart News warned that firearm registration must proceed from the ATT if it is to be enforceable. After all, how can agents tasked with enforcing this treaty ascertain the origin of smuggled weapons without a comprehensive registration on file?
Moreover, the NRA pointed out that the treaty all but calls for a registry from the start inasmuch as it requires “importing countries to provide information to an exporting country regarding arms transfers, including ‘end use or end user documentation’ for a ‘minimum of ten years.’” This information on “end users” is not only a de-facto international gun registry but one that could be “made available to foreign governments.”

The origin??? Heck why not just sell to them like fast and furious.
Idiots!
Obama Ratifies Treaties on his own, now. He simply orders that all federal agencies adhere to the terms of the Treaty and orders that the Court uphold its provisions. The Republic is over.
Are they going to discuss Fast and Furious?
Your comments please?
America wants to know
.
They can talk about it til the cows come home and it still isn’t happening here in the US>
“Treaties? !! What treaties?!!
We don` need no stinkin` treaties!!!!
“ATT was pushed under the guise of stopping “small arms [and] light weapons” from crossing borders.”
Except by the Obama administration when they want to put more guns in the hands of the Mexican drug cartel.
That is a sure start to CW-II, should Dorkbama the Muslim try anything.
more attempted measures to enslave the American public and cancel whatever little remains of our US Constitutional rights
ironically, from the Gun Runner in Chief!
Dear Mexico....we will keep your 15 MILLION illegals sucking off of our TAX DOLLARS if you KEEP Obama!! DEAL???
“BRING IT, UN, let’s get this sh*t over with once and for all!!”
And make sure you all wear those shiny blue helmets that make good targets.
