US agrees to timetable for UN Gun Ban
From: Dudley Brown U.S. agrees to timetable for UN Gun Ban The United States joined 152 other countries in support of the Arms Trade Treaty Resolution, which establishes the dates for the 2012 UN conference intended to attack American sovereignty by stripping Americans of the right to keep and bear arms. Working groups of anti-gun countries will begin scripting language for the conference this year, creating a blueprint for other countries when they meet at the full conference. The stakes couldn't be higher. Former United Nation's ambassador John Bolton has cautioned gun owners about the Arms Trade Treaty and says the UN “is trying to act as though this is really just a treaty about international arms trade between nation states, but there’s no doubt that the real agenda here is domestic firearms control.” Establishing the dates for the Arms Trade Treaty Conference is just the first step toward their plans for total gun confiscation. The worldwide gun control mob will ensure the passage of an egregious, anti-gun treaty... . . .and that's where Secretary of State Hillary Clinton steps in. Once the UN Gun Ban is passed by the General Assembly of the United Nations it must be ratified by each nation, including the United States. As an arch enemy of gun owners, Clinton has pledged to push the U.S. Senate to ratify the treaty. She will push for passage of this outrageous treaty designed to register, ban and CONFISCATE firearms owned by private citizens like YOU. That’s why it’s vital you sign the special petition I’ve made up for your signature that DEMANDS your U.S. Senators vote AGAINST ratification of the UN’s “Small Arms Treaty.” So far, the gun-grabbers have successfully kept the exact wording of their new scheme under wraps. But looking at previous versions of the UN “Small Arms Treaty,” you and I can get a good idea of what’s likely in the works. Don't let any of the "experts" lull you to sleep by saying "Oh, we have it handled" or "Until you know exactly what's in the treaty you can't fight against it." Judging by Ambassador Bolton's comments -- who certainly knows what to expect from the American-freedom-hating international crowd that infests the U.N. -- we are certain the treaty's going to address the private ownership of firearms. If passed by the UN and ratified by the U.S. Senate (which is where we must ultimately make our stand), the UN “Small Arms Treaty” would almost certainly FORCE national governments to: *** Enact tougher licensing requirements, making law-abiding citizens cut through even more bureaucratic red tape just to own a firearm legally; *** CONFISCATE and DESTROY ALL “unauthorized” civilian firearms (all firearms owned by the government are excluded, of course); *** BAN the trade, sale and private ownership of ALL semi-automatic weapons; *** Create an INTERNATIONAL gun registry, setting the stage for full-scale gun CONFISCATION. So please click here to sign the petition to your U.S. Senators before it’s too late! You see, this is NOT a fight we can afford to lose. Here's what you can do to help the National Association for Gun Rights fight Hillary Clinton and her United Nations cronies: Forward this e-mail to your friends and relatives who share your concern for American sovereignty and protecting our right to keep and bear arms. Please consider making a generous contribution to the National Association for Gun Rights to help us fight Hillary Clinton and the United Nations "Small Arms Treaty." Thank you in advance for your support. For Liberty, Dudley Brown P.S. The Obama Administration just announced they would be working hand-in-glove with the UN to pass a new GLOBAL "Small Arms Treaty.” That’s why it's vital you and I fight back IMMEDIATELY. Please click here to sign the special petition I’ve made up for your signature that DEMANDS your U.S. Senators vote AGAINST ratification of the UN’s “Small Arms Treaty.” -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To help the National Association for Gun Rights grow, please forward this to a friend.

I thought I read in the last NRA First Freedom magazine that they did not think this was an issue...but I will research it again after I finish my shift tonight. I think I still have it...but if someone has the Nov or Dec issue available I think it was in one of them, but I think I remember them addressing this. If someone finds out...please post.

Over the last few weeks, we have received many inquiries regarding the UN and the impact of international treaties on our Second Amendment freedom.
The NRA has been engaged at the United Nations and elsewhere internationally in response to anti-small arms initiatives for over 14 years. In most cases, agendas for the elimination of private ownership of firearms are disguised as calls for international arms control to stem the flow of illicit military weapons. These instruments are generally promoted by a small group of nations and a large number of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) working in conjunction with departmental bureaucracies in multi-national institutions such as the UN and European Union.
The new U.S. administration, to no one’s surprise, has changed direction in the UN with respect to international small arms control initiatives that were resisted by the previous administration.
The current issue under discussion, the Arms Trade Treaty (ATT), is in the early stages of the negotiation process. There is no actual draft text at this time. Work on the ATT is scheduled to continue by a consensus process between now and 2012. It should be noted that any treaty must be approved by two thirds of the U.S. Senate for ratification.
Attempts to thwart our freedoms should be no surprise, given the anti-gun climate of the international community in general, and the current U.S. administration in particular.
More generally, the NRA does not concern itself with foreign policy or arms control initiatives—except to the extent they would directly or indirectly affect Second Amendment rights.
We have been actively opposing transnational efforts that would limit Second Amendment freedoms. For many years, NRA has been monitoring and actively fighting any credible attempts on the part of the UN to restrict our sovereignty and gun rights. As a recognized Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) at the United Nations since 1997, NRA gives gun owners a strong voice in the UN’s debate over global “gun control.” As one of over 2,000 NGOs representing everyone from religious groups to the banking industry, NRA has access to UN meetings that are closed to the general public, and is able to distribute informational materials to participants in UN activities.
Most importantly, NRA’s status as an NGO allows us to monitor more closely the internal UN debate over firearm issues and report back to our members. The role NRA plays within the UN as an NGO is almost identical to the role our registered lobbyists play every day on Capitol Hill and in state capitals across the nation—educating and informing decision-makers of the facts behind the debate, and working to protect the interests of American gun owners and NRA members.
Due to our NGO status, NRA was able to take an active role in thwarting the absurdly titled “UN Conference to Review Progress Made in the Implementation of the Programme of Action to Prevent and Eradicate the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons in All Its Aspects” in 2006, and the previous meeting, the “UN Conference on the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons” in the summer of 2001.
The UN Small Arms Conference ended in deadlock with no formal conclusions or recommendations, due in large part to the NRA. In the final analysis, the complexity of the issue and the concerns of hunters, sport shooters and firearm owners world-wide prevailed. The failure of the program was total; no recommendations on ammunition, civilian possession or future UN meetings, or for that matter any other subjects, were adopted.
In addition to its UN activities, NRA is a founding member of the World Forum on the Future of Sport Shooting Activities (WFSA). The WFSA is an association of hunting, shooting, and industry organizations that was founded in 1996. The WFSA includes over 35 national and international organizations, and represents over 100 million sport shooters worldwide.
NRA members may rest assured that we are actively engaged in international matters. We have never hesitated, nor will we hesitate, to use the political and other resources available to us to resist any international agreement that could in any way affect our Second Amendment rights.

No international treaty may abrogate ANY part of the US Constitution. That would be the first test for any requested Senate ratification.

Everyone needs to start sending Mrs Clinton

It would require a constitutional amendment ratified by the states. That would span, most likely, the terms in office of more than one and maybe two presidents. Which hunting and fishing states would want to ratify a change to the constitution that would take away guns? Not many.
runawaygun762
but how likely is it that someone or some agency would try and stage a mass murder here in the states that would be traced back to a legally owned "assault rifle" in order to help further the gun grabbers' agenda? I read the scenario in one of my right-wing gun nut books and while I doubt it would happen, I have to wonder how effective it would be at turning people against guns.
CharlesW
We just had an Army Officer do that didn't we ?
So is that such a crazy thought ?
daisycutter
nut job could commit a high profile assassination or a slaughter of innocents for "The Greater Good", setting off a public outcry against guns.
Muslims, damn their filthy souls, kill themselve to kill others becoming martyrs so why not a liberal democrat martyr?
runawaygun762
could pull it off. I think it would take something more than one guy. Although John Hinckley Jr's assassination attempt did gain the libs some advantage

thats what brought the Brady law into fruition

attempted plot.

JohnnieBravo
This is part of the Democraps new world order thinking, let the U.N take care of gun confiscation....theres gonna be many damn good gun fights if that ever happens....
CharlesW
Our guns are no good without ammo
Why a shortage of ammo over night ?
We are already being controlled
One good shot gets their gun and
they have plenty of ammo
JohnnieBravo
thats exactly why I load my own, so far I have been lucky to find primers and been able to get plenty of speer gold dot bullets, my last order i got over 3k of them. Come to my house to take my guns and they have a very serious problem. I didnt spend 14 years in the army defending our rights to have some Fi-FI from France come here to take away my guns...screw that.
runawaygun762
I'd feel bad hving to shoot at fellow Americans. But bring a fucking Frenchie, Paki, or Chink here? Bad day for them and any who support them.
