If Hitlery and the Kenyan Klown are for it, its definitely bad for the rest of us.

Treaties do not supercede the US Constituion. This will be of no effect on our KBA rights.

"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."

It certainly doesn't take a treaty to accomplish that. We could simply sign an accord to cooperate in these efforts.

Why Obama might NOT sign it:
- risk losing any gun-owning Democrats left in his camp
- risk giving Romney any campaign ad material
- risk enforcing the treaty and sparking a domestic incident

Why Obama might sign it:
- rally his pro-UN and pro-gun control Base
- spin the treaty as somehow showing international leadership and keeping America safe
- try to spark a domestic response from Tea Party extremists in order to justify [fill in the blank]

Like HELL it is “feel-good, can’t-we-all-get-along pieces of parchment...”

The document is designed to protect empower GOVERNMENTS at the expense of the private citizen’s freedom and safety.

WHAT!? The "American Hunter", NRA's magazine, this month has an article saying the UN treaty on arms was defeated. I heard the same thing on GunTalk, from a guy with an international RKBA organization.

What gives here? Is somebody just scaremongering?

Plus, Obama can sign his dirty toilet paper if he wants, but it won't pass the Senate.

The way I look at it is that Obama and his administration is has turned out to be Tammany hall on the Federal scale and this treaty is the Sullivan Act.

It’s designed to make the citizens helpless before the criminals, both those wearing uniforms and those wearing gang colors. These guys are in favor of the criminals, not the citizens who get preyed upon from both sides of the legal spectrum.
