WHILE NOBODY WAS PAYING ATTENTION, KERRY SIGNS U.N. GUN BAN TREATY
Overpasses News Desk ^ | June 30, 2016 5:00 pm

If U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has his way the United Nations will be able to say if Americans are allowed to have their Second Amendment rights. He signed an anti-gun treaty with the United Nations that the U.S. Senate has already said it is against.

The treaty Kerry signed without authorization from the Senate would create an un-Constitutional registry of all US gun buyers and would lead to the UN controlling American's gun rights.

Secretary of State John Kerry on Wednesday signed a controversial U.N. treaty on arms regulation, riling U.S. lawmakers who vow the Senate will not ratify the agreement.

As he signed the document, Kerry called the treaty a "significant step" in addressing illegal gun sales, while claiming it would also protect gun rights.

"This is about keeping weapons out of the hands of terrorists and rogue actors. This is about reducing the risk of international transfers of conventional arms that will be used to carry out the world's worst crimes. This is about keeping Americans safe and keeping America strong," he said. "This treaty will not diminish anyone's freedom. In fact, the treaty recognizes the freedom of both individuals and states to obtain, possess, and use arms for legitimate purposes." when guns are outlawed2 U.S. lawmakers, though, have long claimed the treaty could lead to new gun control measures. They note the U.S. Senate has final say on whether to approve the agreement.

Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., in a letter to President Obama, urged his administration not to take any action to implement the treaty without the consent of the Senate.

He claimed the treaty raises “fundamental issues” concerning "individual rights protected by the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution."

The National Rifle Association blasted the plan, claiming it would impose an "invasive registration scheme" by requiring importing countries to give exporting countries information on "end users."

"The Obama administration is once again demonstrating its contempt for our fundamental, individual Right to Keep and Bear Arms," Chris Cox, executive director of the NRA's Institute for Legislative Action, said in a statement. "These are blatant attacks on the constitutional rights and liberties of every law-abiding American. The NRA will continue to fight this assault on our fundamental freedom."

Once again Obama's regime tries to end the Second Amendment by stealth.

That was probably back when we were operating under the Constitution. Now, we operate, due to the demand of a majority of voters on November 4, 2008, we operate under obama decrees.

They’ll have their welcoming parade in DC with all the libs and GAYSTAPO and lame stream media. But yeah, South and West? Especially when you get to the mountains of the South and West - like that line in Rambo “I hope they brought plenty of body bags” - either that or the ‘gators are gonna be well fed.

“Obama will Enforce this one with all the UN soldiers he can bring from Africa.”

We have a recent example of Africans used as soldiers.

Col. Qaddhafi had an all-Africa elite force called the Southern Mercenary Army which Qaddhafi trained and armed. They were called into action after the Libyan army refused to shoot Libyans.

The Libyans shoveled the dead bodies of the African mercenaries into open pits by the thousands, after they were shot or hanged from lampposts. The Western media was aghast, screaming that the Libyans were racists because they were killing black Africans, who tried but failed to murder Libyans.

The very day guns become illegal is the day I just happen to open a machine shop.


That day I will stand my ground at my private property and take on anyone who dares to come for my guns. I don’t expect to win however but “DEAD IS BETTER THAN RED!”

Once again, the Obama Administration attempts to make American Citizens vulnerable to outlaws, jihadists, and foreign invasion.

My Karma catch up with all this thieving, lying, traitorous bunch of jerks.

“I on the other hand hope they do.”

I understand that sentiment completely, but I’ve got kids who will wind up on the front lines, should things come to that. I’m hoping very much that they don’t.

Thanks, Trish. I do try not to be obnoxious about it. I really do just want to help.

 Yeah we did. We were supposed to fight for people who couldn't fight for themselves. We were supposed to fight for Willy.

“His signature means nothing without Senate ratification. He has no authority or power to implement a single word of it”.

That may be true, unfortunately with an out of control government, it means nothing today.

Research how Clinton, with a series of Executive Orders starting with 12852 in1993 ordered implementation of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity Treaty AFTER the U.S. Senate refused to even bring it to a vote.

Virtually every part of this UNRATIFIED UN Treaty has been and continues to be implemented by nearly every federal agency including the mandated reporting to the UN on U.S progress in it's implementation.

Is this new or a rehashing of the 2013 UN treaty that has already been signed?
