Come July 9th, none of it may matter. That's the date the UN gets all the backers of a treaty that takes all weapons of any kind away from the citizens of their country. As of this morning, there are in excess of 700 different groups who are going to state their reasons for total UN control of privately owned weapons.

The only thing we " may " have going for this country is, the fact that it's being held in July. If it is signed off on by bHo, I think any possibility of his reelection goes straight down the tubes. He and his subjects must know that.

If it is signed, it will never go away unless a future president takes us out of the UN. And that's not going to happen, ever.

I'm not so sure that they can do that now, without a Constitutional Amendment. Given the Supreme Court decisions in DC and Illinois that stated the Second Amendment is an individual right, no treaty or foreign agreement/body can overrule that (at least without a socialist in office).

We should have gotten out of the UN years ago. Being born a free man I have the right to protect myself and family. The 2nd amendment did not grant me that right it merely identified that it existed. I am not for a demostration of our means to defend ourselves from enemies foreign and domestic, But if I had any weapons not saying that I do, I would be inclined to use them if I was threatened.

Here's an interesting quote,
Quote:
The language in the measure makes blunt assertions about shooter Zimmerman, including a statement that says his "unfounded assumptions and racial bias led to the use of deadly force."
If/when this is proven false, can Mr Zimmerman sue the Members who signed off on this item for slander and character assassination?

Another good one,
Quote:
Tim Lynch, director of the Cato Institute's Project on Criminal Justice, questioned whether it was prudent to push for any concrete legislative changes without knowing all the facts.
Yep, like Obamacare.

Yes, this language was included in the proposal to restrict gun rights.

Typical liberal knee-jerk reaction legislation that will result in more restriction of freedom for the law-abiding and more lawlessness for the criminals.

It's the same kind of reactive law making that got the UK into its present gun-less situation.

It's an election year, and the dummycrats are following their leader's admonition to let no crisis go unexploited.
