I believe that the UN treaty is a real threat to our liberties.

The UN as a whole is a threat to our liberties.

got it
he has allowed interpol to come here
he now signs this UN treaty
thus we are now to be allowed to be arrested by interpol for having a gun.

I would love to see them try that as well but saying that we never know what is going on with this man in the white house because half the time he seems to be back on drugs

again

I propose that gun owners in the US will not comply with anything UN and will in effect tell them to go pound sand. I DONT really see the UN coming door to door to pick up guns. Those blue hats make outstanding targets.

A Treaty does not override the Constitution, If they go along with this it would be considered TREASON under our Constitution.Not to mention it would absolutely be the Flash Point for another American Revolution.

It is. The likely effects would be no more “surplus” firearms or parts from other countries, no more “surplus” ammo, logging of who buys domestic guns and ammo, and higher prices all around for what is left. And that’s for starters.

Barack Obama is the most anti gun president in history

Wanna bet this anti-gun attitude won't extend to his hoped for "domestic force as strong as the armed forces?" Imagine an armed brown-shirt paramilitary domestic force recruited primarily from favored Dem consituency groups. All part of the plan to redistribute wealth and power.

In U.S. law, the U.S. Constitution takes precedence over any U.S. treaty. A Constitutional amendment would be necessary to nullify the Constitutional protection of the right to keep and bear arms.

Of course, a rogue Supreme Court could interpret the Constitution in any way it wishes, but there we would face an epic legal crisis inasmuch as the Constitution, the basis of U.S. law, has never given the Supreme Court the authority to interpret the Constitution, though precedent certainly has.

The thugocrats who run the United Nations are just itching to establish a world-wide thugocracy--with themselves in control of it, of course--and one of their top priorities is to disarm the people of the world so that they cannot protect themselves from the thugocratic government the thugs envision.

Extraordinary vigilance is necessary if the American people are to protect themselves from the thugs and their growing power. A dark side of the Information Age is its empowering of them far more than anyone could possibly have imagined.

I get a little tired of these “Treaty Threads” that do not offer factual acknowledgment that treaties have to be ratified by 2/3 of the Congress before they can take effect in the US.

This is why the US did not participate in Kyoto even though Rev. AlGore signed it. It is also the reason why the US did not participate in the League of Nations and had to negotiate a separate peace treaty with Germany after WWI.

I really don’t care what Obamao and company do with the UN Gun Ban treating. It will never be ratified.

The proposed treaty does not seek to eliminate guns. It seeks to ensure that only police states are armed with guns. It is a gun disenfranchisement initiative to ensure that ordinary citizens are rendered helpless and dependent on the police state for protection. We already know that the police state cannot prevent unarmed citizens from being victimized by criminals. Who protects the unarmed citizen from his armed protector? No one. Which is exactly the point.

The glorious new unarmed world championed by the UN and Obama looks alarmingly similar to the blood-stained old world we just left, where police states in Germany, the Soviet Union, and China massacred hundreds of millions of their own citizens.

I would love to hear from some UN troops about their desire to come to America and disarm Americans.

Perhaps they will study Operation Downfall, Olympic and Coronet and look at the projected Allied casualty figures against folks who were willing to fight to the death with farm implements.

We would resist with much more than pitchforks and sickles.

Mark, I know you are already aware of this but I’m posting to you for the others.

There are only four million gunowners who are currently members of the NRA. That means there are probably only about five million people in the United States willing to take a stand for their Rights.

No one of those others are going to do a thing for Liberty when it gets serious. If someone couldn’t take advantage of the free membership last year, they are certainly not going to watch your back.

Gun grabbers are power hungry dictators. Gunowners sitting on the sidelines aprove of it.
