Maybe you should read up on the subject. You seem to be under a delusion.

1. We have a Veto on the Security Council.
2. The UN and it's General Assembly don't have the power to enforce the color of their Berets without US support.
3. The UN can vote to lower the acceleration of Gravity. So What?

The United States Program for General and Complete Disarmament in a Peaceful World
The over-all goal of the United States is a free, secure, and peaceful world of independent states adhering to common standards of justice and international conduct and subjecting the use of force to the rule of law; a world which has achieved general and complete disarmament under effective international control; and a world in which adjustment to change takes place in accordance with the principles of the United Nations.
In order to make possible the achievement of that goal, the program sets forth the following specific objectives toward which nations should direct their efforts:
The disbanding of all national armed forces and the prohibition of their reestablishment in any form whatsoever other than those required to preserve internal order and for contributions to a United Nations Peace Force;
The elimination from national arsenals of all armaments, including all weapons of mass destruction and the means for their delivery, other than those required for a United Nations Peace Force and for maintaining internal order;
The institution of effective means for the enforcement of international agreements, for the settlement of disputes, and for the maintenance of peace in accordance with the principles of the United Nations;
The establishment and effective operation of an International Disarmament Organization within the framework of the United Nations to insure compliance at all times with all disarmament obligations.

And never forget that small arms are considered by the UN as WOMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction)(see the left hand column header)

Be sure and stop by the




Organization of American States (OAS)

Note the the US flag is the third left from the twelve o'clock position.
Anniversary Event of the United Nations Conventional Arms Register
Another regional organization has helped lead the way. At its 1995 meeting, the 34-members of the Organization of American States (OAS), agreed to a variety of confidence- and security-building measures. These include the exchange of information and participation of all member states in the United Nations Register of Conventional Arms and the Standardized International Reporting of Military Expenditures. In 1998, in a follow-up to the Santiago Conference, the OAS agreed to improve and broaden the information submitted by the member states to the United Nations Register of Conventional Arms, so as to enhance the hemisphere's contribution to pursuing the aims of that Register, in compliance with the relevant UNGA resolutions.

But why bother you with such trivialities...We have a Veto on the Security Council.
