Amen Brother, that was my thought as well. Where are the other 50 and why didn’t they sign. What this actually means is that they are only ten votes from ratifying the Treaty.
The treaty will remain signed and at any time if they can buy ten votes it is settled law, as they so like to say.
Don’t think they cannot buy votes. They bought McConnell for 2 billion dollars.
17 votes. It takes 67 votes to ratify a treaty and a treaty cannot supersede the Constitution.
The biggest problem is this Treaty is sitting on the shelf of the Senate. It does not have to be introduced in committee and etc process. If enough anti gunners get elected in the future, all they have to do is pull the Treaty from the bin it has been sitting all and vote to ratify it. IAW from this point on, it is a sword hanging over gunowners heads waiting for another major shooting to introduce it onto the Senate floor for a vote.
17.
