“In
New York, right here on our own shores, we’ve got a Trojan
horse. They won’t accept U.S. firearms policy. They want
to take the decision away from the U.S. electorate and undermine
our Constitution.”
~Ambassador Faith Whittlesey, US Delegate to UN Small Arms Conference,
January 2012
While actions
at the UN posed a serious threat to our right to bear arms, few
acknowledged the legitimacy of the issue and fewer still had even
heard anything about it.
The Obama administration
is now just a matter of weeks away from joining other foreign powers
in the signing of the Arms Trade Treaty at United Nations.
While many
will argue that the new treaty will not restrict gun ownership in
America, 2nd Amendment proponents disagree and maintain that the
new treaty could pave the way for an eventual nationwide gun grab.
…Obama
is planning, with Hillary, a backdoor move to impose gun control
on the United States.
It’s
totally outrageous. You know, Obama has not pushed gun control
during his administration – a notable absence for a liberal.
But it’s because he was saving the best for last.
Hillary
is now negotiating a small arms treaty in the United Nations…
The purpose of the small arms treaty is to stop small arms, which
they define as pistols, handguns, rifles, assault weapons, even
machine guns from being exported to other countries.
…
What Obama
is doing with Hillary is to negotiate a treaty that would allegedly
stop individual citizens and businesses from selling their arms
overseas. To do that each country would be obliged to set up its
own system of registration, and controls, and inventory controls…
It’s
entirely a backdoor effort to force gun registration and eventually
bans and restrictions with the act of the United States Congress
– to do it with international treaty.
One of
the deadly parts about this is that when a treaty is signed and
made binding in the United States it acquires the force of a Constitutional
Amendment. Under the Supremacy Clause, every Congress and every
state legislature has to honor that treaty, unless a Constitutional
Amendment is passed to the contrary or unless all the other signatories
let the U.S. out of the treaty.
So
this would be permanent, long-term gun control…all done without
Congress.
We have five
words for the United Nations and those who would supplant the 2nd
Amendment of the United States Constitution through international
treaties and backdoor political machinations:
