If you like guns
 
There is word that we should be ready to register them soon. Hilary Clinton is to sign a "treaty" end of this month which is to help register ALL guns in the world. This is said to help with gun control. It is a treaty so it supercedes the Right to own a gun. Just for information without political intent.

Constitution trumps treaties without a majority vote. Any record of such a vote in the Congressional record?? Anyone? If they did they wouldn't make it back to the cars after the vote.

Eddie, It was commented on TV report that Treaty trumps Constitution in this case. I do not know for sure personally

Dick, I think we all need to keep our ear close to the ground on this one. Reid vs Covert may offer some background with regards to treaties and the Constitution.

Unless the treaty allows a search of every house in America, no guns will be confiscated ! It will take a firefight to get mine!

Let's hope you are correct on this! Jim

No treaty can be signed by the president unless the Senate approves it by a 2/3 vote. So we all can keep our firearms.

Hiliary is to be the signing person. Eddie is right about the Reid case stating Constitution over treaty comment. Thanks.

From what I understand after a meeting today.
The treaty trumps the Constitution.

This two days after an executive order to control the internet in the case of a national emergency.

To me these two are related.
