Part of me hopes they sign it, just to prove how anti American they really are.


Tapatalk sent it.

Am I the only person who's actually read the Constitution!?

Look, Obama signing it means jack shit. To be put in force, it has to be ratified by a 2/3 majority in the Senate. Ain't going to happen.

Even if Obama signs, it means NOTHING inside the US.

But if it opens the eyes of the enamored it's a good result from a shitty move.

normally I would agree with that, but there seems to be an awful lot of legislative gymnastics goin' on lately.

 

[scap99]

I hope there's a huge voter turn out after all this shit starts piling up and can't be talked around or swept under the rug by the MSM.

The enamored already don't care. Obama already urged the Senate to ratify an earlier arms control treaty with Mexico that was signed by Clinton. The enamored also don't care that Obama was on the board of the Joyce foundation.

Some minds are too closed to be changed.

Treaties do not affect internal laws of nations.

They could effect the movement of firearms and ammo between nations. Which could have an impact on the cost and availability of firearms in this country.

We are perfectly capable of doing our own manufacturing. Your scenario would lead to more Americans being employed.

I am not sure about this. Aren't the majority of the current production firearms consumed by the US made here to begin with?

I think what would really suffer is things like surplus ammo in legacy cartridges. Not sure that US made 7.62x25 is going to be common.

I could be wrong though. I am hardly an expert in international trade economics.

Only matters if the source(s) of those calibers sign on.. and actually follow the treaty. I seriously doubt the Russians or Chinese will.

Russians have signed. Don't know about the smaller former com-bloc countries.

They won't follow it. They love them some arms exports, even (especially) off the books.

How do you think the AK turned into "the" Third World rifle? Sure, the Chinese had a big hand in that, but that was mostly in Africa south of the Sahara.

bring it vato

 

[Whiskey_Rocka_Rolla]

When will this "treaty" go to the Senate for ratification?

 

[Dreamliner787]

This thing has to be stopped...anything related to what the UN wants to do we should not do it!

 

[Whiskey_Rocka_Rolla]

Oh, don't worry Dreamliner787...do you actually think Americans are going to register their gun in an international registry? Do you really think TEXANS are going to even recognize this treaty as pertaining to them? These people are wasting their time, wasting millions in taxpayer dollars, and for what? Nothing, because nothing is actually going to come of this. This country is so divided right now it's not even funny, the fact that there are people who even support this amazes me, but it tells me they are either brainwashed or are closet America haters. Read this article from Ultra Liberal George Soros's "Media Matters". Check out some of these fanatical leftists'' comments, seriously. It's like, "whose side are they on???".

Yeah, and Congress can only regulate Interstate Commerce not laws within a state. We saw how quickly that went to shit.
