Let's stay clear of anything political.

That said, if you think our right to keep and bear arms is safe you are fooling yourself.

Stock up now and do whatever you can to educate your friends. We'll need to have the public on our side when the time comes.

If I recall, the text of this doesn't really effect us much, but id have to read it again to make sure...

Not trying to be political.....but a lot of folks thought this was gone.....it was just moved to the back burner.

Now it's at the front....:(

It give the UN more jurisdiction over free trade of firearms on the open global market.

It will hinder the international sales for manufacturers over here.....forcing domestic prices to go up.

It will be more difficult to import small arms ammo into the country....thus affecting prices of domestically produced ammo.

It's a fairly far reaching "treaty"....not on the front....but the back end of passing it.

I could've sworn it also called for an international registry...

IIRC it did have that oncluded.

On a similar note I ran across a blurb last night about Sen Fienstein reintroducing the assulat weapons ban. Looks like there coming after the guns on multiple fronts.
