If this passes we can kiss our Second Amendment rights goodby from the wording of the treaty, if it passes what will happen to all the firearms manufactures that don't have weapons contracts, dealers that sell to the puplic, ammunition manufactures plus all the companys that supply the arms manufactures plus all the unemployment compensation that will be paid out and all the business that will fail or close up as it will be a domino effect.
I think it will be economics that sinks the bill rather than any form of political pragmatism (now theres an oxymoron!).
Senator Arlen Spector just switched to the other side of the aisle.
Dems now have a filibuster proof 60 seats.
Just like the Obama birth certificate court cases, they will have plenty of liberal judges that are willing to throw out the lawsuits. These people don't care what the Constitution says, they do as they please.I'm not a lawyer (not even close). What happens if a treaty is signed that directly conflicts with the constitution? This so clearly "infringes" on our 2nd amendment rights that I would imagine a huge court battle ...
I'm really amused by all the pathetic posturing by some gun owners. Most gun owners either voted for Obama, or didn't vote at all. Not voting against is the same as voting for. Voted Libertarian for your "principles"? Another vote for Obama. A "protest vote". That's just great, very well thought out. Prepare to pay the price for your apathy.
You can trust me when I say that every gun owner I know voted againts BHO.
