Obama To Sign Anti-Second Amendment U.N. Anti-Gun Treaty

The United Nations is putting the finishing touches on an Arms Trade Treaty that transcends borders and may even trample our Constitutional right to bear arms. Every indication is that the president will sign it.

Like the New Start and Law of the Sea treaties before it, as well as the Kyoto Protocol and Agenda 21, the Arms Trade Treaty being finalized at the U.N. this month is one of those feel-good, can't-we-all-get-along pieces of parchment whose net effect is to accomplish little except to eat away at American sovereignty and freedom.

“We are assured by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who enthusiastically backs the treaty, that it only deals with international trade and trafficking and does not affect our Second Amendment rights. How the treaty would have dealt with Operation Fast and Furious, the administration program that walked guns into the hands of Mexican drug cartels, she does not say. We don’t believe such assurances, given by an administration that has shown no respect for the U.S. Constitution and has a robust gun-control agenda of which Fast and Furious may have been a part.”

I believe this will start a civil war and enable Obozo to call out martial law and suspend the elections. I think this has been his plan all along.

None dare call it treason.....

[left that other site]

This is treason. Can we impeach him NOW???????

[Da Coyote]

He (it) can sign whatever he (it) wants.

I don’t give a fat, slimy, smelly Obama about the UN and they can shove themselves up Obama’s ........

Ah, the UN...you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villany.

All treaties must be approved by the Senate with a 60% super majority vote or the treaties are meaningless, just like the Kyoto treaty which Bill Clinton signed.

UN = Unpunished Nazis

They can sign whatever they want. They will never get 2/3 of Senate to vote for it. Even in super-liberal states gun grabbing is not tolerated

People who support Gun Control only want to keep guns away from white folks

[MrB]

Did anyone else hear about the recent St. Louis urban army exercise? Can anyone confirm that it was called “Operation: Better Not Fight Back, Whitey”?

[Gritty]

What else would anybody expect from this f++king little anti-American t*rd and his a$$ sucking enablers?

This could end very badly for America and the peace and stability of our country and our God-given liberties. This is a genuine line in the sand for many - and for good reason. It was a line in the sand many years ago for those at Lexington and Concord, too...

All treaties must be approved by the Senate with a 60% super majority vote or the treaties are meaningless,

Also, there is a process to amend the Constitution which requires far more support than the treaty approval process. As such, not treaty, no matter what it says can legally transcend the protections of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

This could very well make a revolution a reality.

[Leep]

Guns don’t kill people. People infected with AIDS and who have unprotected sex kill people.

[SoFloFreeper]

Good. You sign it, Obamugabe.

2/3 of the Senate has to approve the treaty, and that isn’t going to happen.

What WILL happen is that gun groups like the NRA and the Second Amendment Sisters will rally millions of people to vote against you and your party, exposing you accurately as a gun grabbing fascist.

Thanks, Obamugabe. You’re signing not just a treaty, but a “surrender” document for your Demon Rat party.

No worries.
Just about everything Zero has done for 3 1/2 years has been ultra vires: beyond the scope or in excess of his legal power or authority.
Only three more full months and we’re shed of this douche bag.

[Gritty]

They will never get 2/3 of Senate to vote for it.

Want to bet? It is quite possible.

All the Dems need is 34 votes for it if the Dems sneak an unexpected vote in with a bare quorum in attendence some unexpected time when the GOP isn't paying attention - which is most of the time. All they need is a quorum (50+1) on the floor and a quick vote (even a voice vote might do). They easily have enough votes for that. They could secretly set an ambush vote up ahead of time to catch the solmnolent GOP unawares.

Do you put it past them? It sounds just like how they would do it. Do you think McConnell or anybody else on our side is paying attention? All of a sudden, it will be done and over - and legal.

Dig out that change jar.
Every little bit helps.

Consider becoming a monthly donor.
It's easy, and with enough participants
we could eliminate FReepathons.

I think a super majority is 2/3 of the Senate. I also think any Senator who approves this better be afraid of going back to their home state.

[MrB]

So, was the operation called
“Better Not Fight Back, Whitey”
or
“Whitey Don’t Fight Back”

??

I wasn’t clear on what I’d heard.
