Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Kerry Signs United Nations Gun Ban Treaty

If U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has his way the United Nations will be able to say if Americans are allowed to have their Second Amendment rights. He has just signed an anti-gun treaty with the United Nations that the U.S. Senate has already said it is against.

The treaty Kerry signed without authorization from the Senate would create an un-Constitutional registry of all US gun buyers and would lead to the UN controlling American’s gun rights.

Secretary of State John Kerry on Wednesday signed a controversial U.N. treaty on arms regulation, riling U.S. lawmakers who vow the Senate will not ratify the agreement.

As he signed the document, Kerry called the treaty a “significant step” in addressing illegal gun sales, while claiming it would also protect gun rights.

“This is about keeping weapons out of the hands of terrorists and rogue actors. This is about reducing the risk of international transfers of conventional arms that will be used to carry out the world’s worst crimes. This is about keeping Americans safe and keeping America strong,” he said. “This treaty will not diminish anyone’s freedom. In fact, the treaty recognizes the freedom of both individuals and states to obtain, possess, and use arms for legitimate purposes.”

U.S. lawmakers, though, have long claimed the treaty could lead to new gun control measures. They note the U.S. Senate has final say on whether to approve the agreement.

Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., in a letter to President Obama, urged his administration not to take any action to implement the treaty without the consent of the Senate.

He claimed the treaty raises “fundamental issues” concerning “individual rights protected by the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution.”

The National Rifle Association blasted the plan, claiming it would impose an “invasive registration scheme” by requiring importing countries to give exporting countries information on “end users.”

“The Obama administration is once again demonstrating its contempt for our fundamental, individual Right to Keep and Bear Arms,” Chris Cox, executive director of the NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action, said in a statement. “These are blatant attacks on the constitutional rights and liberties of every law-abiding American. The NRA will continue to fight this assault on our fundamental freedom.”

Once again Obama’s regime tries to end the Second Amendment by stealth.

Kerry is a POS.

everything Kerry/obama does is totaly legal, until their actions are challanged in Court. No one seems to be willing to do that, so this will stand as law.

I don't obey chit signed by traitors.. And, in that spirit, Mr. Ed can read THIS:

Them dirty sum bitches

Enough! Get a rope and start hanging these bastards! Stuff Kerry in a vat of his wife's ketchup!

I'd much rather it be some foreigners knocking down my door to take my guns than Americans. It'll make my decision easier.

ANY treaty must be ratified by the Senate. ANY treaty.

by a 2/3 majority IIRC. won't happen here.

Well said X2

I don't think any one is in doubt about who is really behind this. Obama probably gave Kerry the pen.

We currently have 54 republicans and 46 democrats/independents in the senate. A few dems will vote against the treaty (mostly to save their tails at home). There's no possible way that 67 will vote for it.

Good point; but it is signed, awaiting the next election cycle for ratification?



Could foreign powder suppliers stop imports?

It has no effect. This has come up years ago when the Senate was controlled by Democrats and it was acknowledged by everybody that there was no possible way the Senate would ever ratify it.

So Kerry can sign it all he wants. It means nothing.

Just a symbolic thing I guess. Proving that democrats would rather have butt sex than shoot a gun

This black piece of [bleep] and his crew could care less about the constitution.

Yes it does. It means that he is a traitor to this country and keeps doing things against the will of the people. miles

I wonder when Oobie will start issuing executive orders based on this new "treaty"?

Good question.. And he KNOWS Congress doesn't have the balls to do a damn thing about it..
