Obama to sign UN gun treaty
during summer recess
Breitbart – Ben Shapiro 6/3/2013
In an attempt to avoid
public scrutiny, President Obama plans
to sign the controversial United Nations gun treaty in August, when Congress is
in summer recess. According to White House press secretary Jay Carney, Obama
will sign the treaty “before the end of August,” even though legally he could
have done so next week.
The treaty is problematic
for a variety of reasons ranging from the substantive to the procedural. On
substance, the treaty is designed to regulate arms importers and exporters,
which the United States
already does. The treaty, however, does not properly regulate foreign
countries, leaving the United
States on the hook while leaving actual
wrongdoers alone. Meanwhile, signatories are supposed to keep information on
“end users” of arms imported into their country and to give that information to
the supplying country. In other
words, it makes it more difficult for American citizens to import arms, and
guarantees the solid chance that foreign governments have information about
domestic gunowners.
READER COMMENT: So now in the event of a China or
Russian invasion, or country that they want to share information with, they
will know which American citizen doors to knock on to confiscate weapons. The
shortsightedness of the Obama administration knows no bounds.
