Obama's next backdoor assault on 2nd Amendment (just to try to reduce legitimate gun ownership')

Secretary of State John Kerry

Secretary of State John Kerry once again signed the United Nations Arms Treaty on Wednesday, a move that supporters say will help stop weapons from getting into the hands of criminals and terrorists worldwide but critics contend is is a backdoor assault on law-abiding gun owners.

The treaty would require nations to conduct a detailed registration of all guns. The issue is dead on arrival in the U.S. Senate, but one of the leading experts on guns says even if the agreement is only ratified in other countries, it can still work to erode gun ownership in America.

“The point of this is just to try to reduce legitimate gun ownership in other countries. Eventually it has some feedback effect in the United States. If Canadians are much less likely to own guns, gun control activists will point to them and say, ‘Look how outlandish we are in the United States,’” said John Lott, an economist who serves as president of the Crime Prevention Research Center.

Lott is also the author of well-known books on guns, including “More Guns, Less Crime” and “The Bias Against Guns.” He says the stated purpose of the U.N. treaty sounds pretty harmless but the devil is in the details.

Barry and Kerry just won't take "NO" for an answer.

Then how about

Meanwhile, in Canada, drug gangs wage war with increasing firepower, police say

The Edmonton ALERT team conducted a series of raids Aug. 14, with the assistance of Edmonton tactical team members. Two homes in the northeast and one home in the northwest were searched.

Eight firearms were seized, including a fully automatic Glock 17 handgun. Other firearms included:

■KRISS Vector carbine with silencer;

■Two SKS semi-automatic rifles;

■Ruger handgun with the serial number removed;

■CZ 75 Tactical Series handgun;

■Walther PPK handgun that was previously reported as stolen;

■Browning rifle;

■2 suppressors;

■Thousands of rounds of ammunition

So raiding three homes produced eight guns.

Eeeew, scary!

Those Edmonton cops really have their work cut out for them!

"■Thousands of rounds of ammunition "...... No wonder I can't find any around here, my neighbors to the north have them all. Dang!

Meanwhile, let’s just give STATE SPONSORS OF TERRORISM a tad more than ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY BILLION dollars.

Just ask ‘em pretty please don’t buy any GUNS with it.

Yeah, that’ll work.

[NorthMountain]

That’s a pretty wimpy ‘arsenal’, there.

That suppressed Vector would be pretty sweet though. a full auto glock 17 would also be fun.

Ever notice how much the opinion of foreigners seems to matter to gungrabbers?

The Brits, the Swedes, the Japs, all go “Cluck-cluck-cluck! You violent Americans and your guns!”

Well, screw ‘em! OBTW I own several fine shotguns made in Sweden. Their gun laws are now so restrictive a citizen can no longer keep one at home. Enterprising Yanks show up and buy Swedes’ guns for resale here. Neat, huh?

Meanwhile, the regime is doing it’s best to make sure Iran can have it’s Nucs - because Fairness or something.
