It will pass the Senate, I fear. It will pass on the narrowest margin, but it will pass.

I wonder if shoot-n-see makes “UN-blue” target stickers?

A treaty requires 2/3 for ratification, doesn't it?

You need 2/3 of the Senate.

Highly unlikely. The treaty requires the approval of 2/3rds of the Senate at a time when Harry Reid can't, by his own admission, get 40 votes for an "assault" weapon ban.

it does not have to pass the senate, just never voted on.

there is ANOTHER treaty in which the united states is treated as if it ratified a treaty until it is AFFIRMATIVLY voted down.

If reid blocks the vote, the treaty stands as if ratified.

People keep making themistakein thinking that UN troops will be enforcing this, but they won't. It will be your local police, and their fedeal buddies in the FBI, ATF, etc. So IF you're prepared to use condign second amendment action, it will be county and city police who you will have to stop. Every true patriot will have to take on the mindset of Timothy McVeigh and realize it is your fellow americans who are the enemy. Those who supposedly uphold the law will be the enemy, and if this passes they will do their best to enforce it.
