Can House Stop U.N. Arms Trade Treaty Gun Grab?

IBD EDITORIALS ^ | November 23, 2012

[Logical me]

A treaty cannot override the Constitution.

What Constitution. You mean that piece of paper that has been ignored by our communists Government? Total dictatorship not too far off and nothing to fight it. Civil War will never happen.

[Ancesthntr]

The Constitution is a contract between the People and the states, creating a federal government of limited and ennumerated powers.

Note that in a contract, if one side simply violates it at will, the other side may simply walk away without penalty.

If the federal government simply ignores the very document that created it, I am of the opinion that the entire government and all of the “laws” that it has created can be similarly ignored. If millions or tens of millions would, this criminal enterprise calling itself our “government” would collapse in short order.

Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God.

When the blue helmets kick down the front door, It’s already too late. The Idea is to intercept the convoy ON THE WAY to someone else’s house. You want to make their job so undesirable, it will be nearly impossible to get people to do it.

[primrose]

Just maybe they are working together,that’s my thought,and i would bet that we the people have not seen anything yet....

[Joe Boucher]

Then it seems obammy should be charged in oh so many multiple ways for going against the U.S. Constitution.
Hang him.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would
things have been like if every Security operative, when he 
went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain 
whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to 
his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for 
example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the 
entire city, people had not simply sat there in their 
lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs 
door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood 
they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the 
downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, 
hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The 
Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of 
officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's 
thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! 
If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we 
had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and 
simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

Of course, the trick here is to get those “millions or tens of millions” coordinated. How many showed up to help the Weaver family? Which militia flanked the FBI at Waco?

So long as Joe Sixpack has to provide support for his wife and 2.3 children he’ll avoid pulling the whiskers of Leviathan. Only when Leviathan actively threatens HIS family will he (maybe) open the gun safes that hold his rifle and ammo (in seperate safes, naturally) and confront the threat. Let’s face it, we ARE a nation of cowards... right now.

Maybe though, in a few years, after a few more officially cleared shootings at wrong addresses Joe will realize that the police are not his friends anymore and he’ll simply go hunting. I doubt that I’ll see that day nor will many on this board. Instead, the screws will tighten so slowly that none of us will see the actual point at which we become the property of “The Ruling Class.” That tactic worked well in Germany and people aren’t much different now than then.

Beautiful quote, thank you.

If you can't eat you won't fight long and they know it. If you are taken with smallpox, you won't fight long and they know it.

Preparation first, coordination second. In fact, the Biblical coordination system was via extended families, which is the real meaning of the Fifth Commandment.

Did I see shot guns on that list? Shot guns?

To which list do you refer?

What about the hunters?

$oros wants you dependent upon the food he is selling. in his mind, wolves will take care of all those extra deer.

[WVNan]

The list of guns in post #22.

[Carry_Okie]

The shotguns listed were semi-auto, but it really doesn’t matter. With Zero this is only a beginning.

[itsahoot]

to confiscate all firearms... what then?

Does anyone remember Crocodile Dundee? That character was based on a real man, who the government of Australia killed because he wouldn’t surrender his guns.

If the Government wants them, they will come and get them.
