    Obama Finds Legal Way Around The 2nd Amendment And Uses It.

    If This Passes, There Will Be WAR
    Just got this ... pass it far &wide.

    On Wednesday Obama Took the First Major Step in a Plan to Ban All Firearms in the United States
    On Wednesday the Obama administration took its first major step in a plan to ban all firearms in the United States. The Obama administration intends to force gun control and a complete ban on all weapons for US citizens through the signing of international treaties with foreign nations. By signing international treaties on gun control, the Obama administration can use the US State Department to bypass the normal legislative process in Congress. Once the US Government signs these international treaties, all US citizens will be subject to those gun laws created by foreign governments. These are laws that have been developed and promoted by organizations such as the United Nations and individuals such as George Soros and Michael Bloomberg. The laws are designed and intended to lead to the complete ban and confiscation of all firearms.

    The Obama administration is attempting to use tactics and methods of gun control that will inflict major damage to our 2nd Amendment before US citizens even understand what has happened. Obama can appear before the public and tell them that he does not intend to pursue any legislation (in the United States) that will lead to new gun control laws, while cloaked in secrecy, his Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton is committing the US to international treaties and foreign gun control laws. Does that mean Obama is telling the truth? What it means is that there will be no publicized gun control debates in the media or votes in Congress. We will wake up one morning and find that the United States has signed a treaty that prohibits firearm and ammunition manufacturers from selling to the public. We will wake up another morning and find that the US has signed a treaty that prohibits any transfer of firearm ownership. And then, we will wake up yet another morning and find that the US has signed a treaty that requires US citizens to deliver any firearm they own to the local government collection and destruction center or face imprisonment.

    This is not a joke nor a false warning. As sure as government health care will be forced on us by the Obama administration through whatever means necessary, so will gun control.

    U..S. reverses stance on treaty to regulate arms trade

    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States reversed policy on Wednesday and said it would back launching talks on a treaty to regulate arms sales as long as the talks operated by consensus, a stance critics said gave every nation a veto.

    The decision, announced in a statement released by the U.S. State Department, overturns the position of former President George W. Bush's administration, which had opposed such a treaty on the grounds that national controls were better. View The Full Article Here http://www.reuters.com/article/polit...59E0Q920091015 14 Nov. 2009

    I don't see how. I just don't see how. Sounds more like one of those wild e-mails going around..

    As an American citizen, we all have the right to bear arms. And bear them, I shall if I have too. I can see assault rifles, but there is no way that they can ban us from having our guns in our home. Oh, yeah, I'd use mine too, if I had too. ;)

    Q: Has Obama found a "legal way around the Second Amendment"?
    A: The administration’s agreement to talk about writing a United Nations treaty to regulate arms exports and imports is a far cry from banning possession of firearms, which Obama says he doesn’t want to do and the Supreme Court has said can’t be done anyway.


    Much of what this e-mail claims is simply false!

    Besides, each country has it's own gun laws or are they trying to tell us the world is going to unite to ban firearms everywhere?
    I think there are slightly more pressing matters the world needs to unite on first.
    Besides, it would never happen, it wouldn't be "War" as you suggest since realistically speaking not many Americans are going to start shooting people since the government would call in the armed forces to control it. But the outcry would be too much for the government to handle and Obama would be forced out and someone else would come in and turn it over.

    I wouldn't worry, north America is too big a hunting continent for them to ban all firearms.
    Without Hunting there would be major ecological repercussions.

    Then you have north american Natives who do not answer to governments so it couldn't possibly happen and would simply cause the whole thing to go underground leading to anarchy and crime increase.
    The government knows this and are not that stupid.

    Gun control, yes, firearms ban..no.

    Sounds like propaganda against the US government once again from within if you ask me.

    Uninformed extremism is ugly and shameful, regardless of which side of the fence it's on.

    Not to argue, but my assault rifle is only as dangerous as I want it to be... I could be a lot bigger problem at 500 yards with a deer rifle. I'd like to keep my AK-47, LOL.

    I hear ya Pax, a lot of people like them. I guess am just partial to my 30/30, and yeah, a VERY good shot! ;) Guess I should have been more clear: :-o Drug dealers don't care about gun laws, they don't buy a gun the legal way anyway.

    But, I do bear arms ;)

    Don't mess with my assault rifle!! I am a 'bitter clinger'.:guns This was about international trade rules. http://www.factcheck.org/2009/12/international-gun-ban-treaty/ Buy American made guns! :-D

    If you want to protect your 2nd amendment rights, your best option is to join the NRA, or any pro gun organization you like, and be a responsible gun owner. Be active politically. I plan on going to a town hall meeting with one of my state representatives next month.

    Got to keep an eye on the government though. They will try to sneak things by us. We should all try to be informed, and vote how you believe.

    I think I'd pre-emptively duck behind the microphone stand when telling them how I was gonna spread their wealth around.

    "We don't take to kindly to people who wanna bring change to these parts."
