The US senate narrowly passed a bill designed to block the Obama administration backed and signed United Nations Arms Trade Treaty.
In a 53-46 vote the senate has protected our 2nd amendment right to bear arms. Read more here: http://www.pakalertpress.com/2013/11/18/the-46-senators-voted-to-destroy-us/
The Statement of Purpose from the Bill reads:
“To uphold Second Amendment rights and prevent the United States from entering into the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty.” The U.N. Small Arms Treaty, which has been championed by the Obama Administration, Would have effectively placed a global ban on the import and export of small firearms. The ban would have affected all private gun owners in the U.S. And had language that would have implemented an international gun registry on all private guns and ammo. Astonishingly, 46 out of our 100 United States Senators were willing to give away our Constitutional rights to a foreign power.

Is it any shock to those of us who follow politics that these elected officials care nothing for the rights of the people they represent? Is it shocking that they ignore emails and phone calls from constituents and instead empower party politics and fight to weaken our individual rights while growing large government?
No it is not shocking at all. The only thing that is shocking to me is these detestable enemies of the people are voted back in to power. We need to get out and vote, raise awareness and tap into the growing base of new gun owners. This new group of gun owners may never have voted before based on gun laws but now is the time to press these issues.
This is our state and our country and we must speak up enough and vote with the power to show party politicians that their antics will not last any longer.
