As has been said it is not a treaty in fact, it is just a forign wish list that the present President has agreed with, it has no force of law.
And should some insane senator wish to think other wise..
“this Court has regularly and uniformly recognized the supremacy of the Constitution over a treaty”
“The concept that the Bill of Rights and other constitutional protections against arbitrary government are inoperative when they become inconvenient or when expediency dictates otherwise is a very dangerous doctrine and if allowed to flourish would destroy the benefit of a written Constitution and undermine the basis of our government.”
Justice Black. (FDR appointment)
Reid v. Covert 1957
So even if the Executive branch wished to make a regestry it would have to go to the Congress to make a law, then prove that what ever law was passed would have to fit into the ordered liberty of the Constitution
“The Court is correct in describing the
Second Amendment right as “fundamental” to the American scheme of ordered liberty, Duncan v. Louisiana”
McDonald v. CHicago
As a “fundamental” right the use of “strict scrutiny” should be applied.
Now for the purists out there that will not vote for a Rino or even a semi conservative for president... 5-4 is a minimum to keep the court, ANY non-democrat is less likely to put a person like Ginsburg on the court. just a thought to keep in ones decision making.
Turn on Fox news for 15 minutes. There will be a propaganda story telling you how great a President Jeb Bush will be.
I paid attention while GW Bush passed the patriot act, bailed out banks and car companies, banned light bulbs, started two nation building projects that wasted thousands of lives and a trillion dollars. At the end the Republican brand was mud.
If you want to vote for a new world order socialist go right ahead. Do not come down on me for voting against the leftist republicants.
