The Obama regime is the greatest danger to our Constitutional freedoms Americans have ever faced. Let us work our way through how our Constitution will be lost.
Against the wishes of Congress, Secretary of State Kerry has declared that President Obama will sign the United Nations Small Arms Treaty. Kerry stated that it may take ten or twenty years but eventually a Democratic controlled Congress will ratify the treaty. While the SCOTUS in the past has declared that the Constitution is Supreme law of the land, and that treaties may not directly violate the Constitution, a future activist SCOTUS could allow what it considers “reasonable” measures that result in loss of our Constitutional rights. We have seen this incremental whittling away of our rights for decades by Federal courts and the SCOTUS. With Obama’s stacking of these courts with far-left activist justices, we can no longer have confidence that a Federal Judicial branch will protect our rights.
The Small Arms Treaty would require US citizens to register our weapons with the United Nations. At this same time, Democrat majority state senates and assemblies have been passing draconian gun control legislation’s, most of which include expanded vague disqualification language and requirements of registration with harsh penalties. Democrats have continually tried to claim that registration will not lead to confiscation; however a confiscation campaign has already started in California.
All these measures are unquestionably designed to make it easily possible to disarm the American people in direct violation of our Second Amendment rights. The purpose can only be to ensure that the people are vulnerable and unable to defend themselves, their family or their nation..
The AP/Fox journalist intimidation scandal, and IRS scandals (as well as many other under-reported abuses by various Federal agencies and Washington office holders,) makes it absolutely clear that that there is an “US versus them” attitude within the Federal government that has determined that the Fed must exert it’s control over the people to keep us inline with their rules and regulations. Many of these rules were not enacted by congressional legislation, but by the agencies themselves, (in direct violation of the Constitutional separation of powers, yet Congress have lazily allowed it.)
The IRS scandal and Bengazi cover-up were clearly orchestrated to favor Obama’s re-election, as was Holder’s actions to keep dead and illegible voters on the state’s voter’s registries. We know that in many districts that votes cast were in excess of the number of registered voters, yet the pro-Obama MSM has largely ignored these criminal irregularities, as has the Justice Department.
Non-progressive political groups are under attack by the Obama White House, the leadership of both the Democrat and Republican parties, agencies of the Federal government and even a heavily progressive MSM. With extreme prejudice. While at the same time, far-left political groups have been unfettered and allowed great freedom to present their messages and are lauded by the news media. Organizations have been targeted for destruction or co-option from forces without and within, in a no-holds-barred culture war against Traditional and Conservative values.
Make no mistake that every action under this administration has been carefully crafted in to “nudge” this nation into an all powerful Orwellian State. They no longer disguise their utter disdain for the Constitution, so why would we expect them to uphold it. They have worked to make as many Americans as possible dependent on government, have pursued an agenda to create fear and desperation in the citizenry via the economic and regulatory reins the executive office holds.
It is now clear that Obama and his fellow Progressives have planned on “immigration reform” to be the final nail in the coffin of the free republic. With its passage, they expect to solidify their power via the legalization of illegal immigrants who will be beholden to the Democratic Party. The passage of this bill will eventually result in Obama intended legacy: the destruction of our two party systems and eventual transformation of the United States of America into a totalitarian socialist state.
We can no longer afford to be complacent in a false expectation that those in power will honor and keep to their oath of office. We must fight to wrest control of our nation away from the den of vipers in Washington DC. We cannot do it by force of arms, as open rebellion will play right into their arms. We must stand up and become activists for the preservation of the America that was handed us. We must be loud, obnoxious and unyielding with our representatives, or this free nation will be lost and our children will be serfs of a totalitarian socialist State.
Let him sign the treaty. After obama and his gang of thieves are out of office he will be denounced as an imposter and fraud and ineligible as president to commit this nation to anything.
None of this should come as a surprise to anyone who has paid the slightest attention over the last four and a half years.
@Ditto: Not necessarily disagreeing but playing devil’s advocate here. On the UN Arms Treaty I’ve heard the argument in both directions, but does anyone have proof of what the treaty actually says on small arms registration? Either way I still agree that there are enough other pieces to it to make the treaty a bad idea. I’d look it up myself but I need to give Baby Bob a bath right now. =8^)
Meanwhile….what peaceful “foreign” students?
Locks cut at Boston area reservoir…not to worry, just a little “vandalism” by some chemical engineers…just out for a midnight stroll….just out watching the submarine races.

Even if a democrat government was stupid enough to ratify the treaty how would such an encumbrance override the Constitution? It was my understanding that changing the Constitution was a rather complex process.
@simka:
Don’t count on it. The Democrats would not willingly let one of theirs be so labeled in our lifetime. Once the treaty is signed it only takes one Congress session with a Democratic super-majority in both houses for the treaty to be ratified.
@Drjohn:
Congresses, presidential administrations and the SCOTUS have through the years made many changes that have watered down our rights without going through the correct Constitutional process. Our Fourth Amendment rights for example, have been taken huge hits by all three branches without Constitutional convention being called. As I stated, it is entirely possible a future activist SCOTUS may let “Reasonable” changes via treaty.
The entire purpose of “immigration reform” and why it is so important for the Democrats to get it passed this year, is because they believe that in 2014 it will give such a tipping of the political scales, as to insure a Democratic super majority thanks to the new voters it will create. With a Democratic controlled House and Senate, Obama would be free to finalize his progressive transformation. Considering the sheer number of those who will be granted amnesty, and the guarantee that scant years later even more of these “non-citizens” may very well receive citizenship, sets an insurance policy that such an imbalance will surely remain in place for a very long time. (Perhaps permanently, once they become entrenched as “The people’s party” as has resulted in most socialist nations.)

Here is the text of the treaty.
Forbes take on the treaty
The New American
Gun Owners of America
Bolton: UN Arms Treaty Lays Groundwork for Gun Registration
The only thing we need to know is does it infringe on personal liberty?
does it infringe on our constitution and bill of rights?
Any answer of “yes” would make this an unconstitutional and illegal action, if oaths of office are violated and the treaty is signed that constitutes an act of SEDITION and TREASON and is an attack on Americans, OUR constitution, our American system and way of life.
The UN is known to be an anti-American organization, and we are supposed to tell them who owns guns. What could go wrong with this idea? As I have mentioned different times: I’m glad I live in Idaho!
I can’t imagine very many politicians who would vote for this, being elected at their next election. Even lifetime liberal democrats are starting to arm themselves after some of the shootings, and the bad guys were at loose for a time. The propaganda media isn’t telling of the huge increase in gun applications after things like this happen. I’m going to guess that very few liberals in congress don’t own a handgun. Remember Nancy’s conceal carry permit that she said she gave up RECENTLY? All the time she was going for gun banning, she was packing.
@Kess:
It certainly has that potential. ATT is not enforceable unless and until the Senate ratifies it with a two-thirds majority vote.
June 3 2013: <a href="http://fellowshipofminds.wordpress.com/2013/06/03/obama-signs-un-gun-control-treaty/".Obama signs UN gun control treaty
A gun registration system (though it’s not called such) is contained in the treaty’s Article 12 (“Record Keeping”):
Article 16 of the ATT allows for U.N. personnel to help U.S. law enforcement implement treaty obligations: ”
Folks, let’s remember the World Trade Court treaty was adopted with the promise that it would not affect our laws. Within the next year, one of the first to go was the US’ “Dolphin free” tuna law allowing only fishing companies that made sure Dolphins were not killed to use that label. The WTC declared that US law to be a “trade barrier” and ordered it to be rescinded. The US interests are often discarded in UN decisions.

@Ditto:
I agree.
That would be un-Constitutional.
I also agree with this.
simka
yes that will be neutralize as if it never existed, as soon as he leave or made to leave,
either way, he will have given AMERICA the worse, a person can do.
like divide, hate, racist attacks, agencies to be the watch police to supress freedom,
and a lot more to add, and the new leader will have to make laws to render all his decisions
erase as forever,
and the people will be free and will need to be debrief for as long as it take,
to become true AMERICANS in the future or CRIMINAL TRAITORS to AMERICA,
AND COMMUNIST DOWN replace by
CAPITALIST, because it worked before and will work again,
to reclaim the jobs for AMERICANS as a priority.
no more pain at the end of the month to make a budget,
there will be THE FLAG IN FRONT OF HOUSES,
THERE WILL BE PUBLIC PRAYERS TO THANK GOD FOR THE RETURNED BLESSINGS, and the school will teach and recite the CONSTITUTION and will give their OATH to it,
any TRAITORS TO AMERICA will be severly delt with,
and in GOD WE WILL TRUST AGAIN publIcly,
no more restraint on foundamental laws of this land.
@Ditto: Considering Obamacare, that is the understatement of the year. Common sense in exchange for political expediency.
HARRY REID
so go work at the immigration un- perfect bill as you said,
and leave only when you have a perfect bill to present,
this is what AMERICA DESERVE,
not flaw bills that will destroy AMERICA AT THE END,
you are being paid royally by THE PEOPLE make it worthy for them,
or sign out.
Obama has just been screwed!
Remember his claim that Nidal Hasan committed ”workplace violence,” at Fort Hood when he murdered 12 and injured another 30 or so?
Well……
Hasan’s judge, in allowing him to defend himself, has also allowed Hasan’s affirmative defense that …wait for it…
he was defending the TALIBAN when he went into COMBAT against the ENEMY of the TALIBAN, the soldiers and support staff at Fort Hood!
In other words, Hasan is claiming to be a traitor!
He, therefore, was committing, not Obama’s ”workplace violence,” when he shot up Fort Hood.
He was committing TREASON.
The judge is allowing this defense.
Obama will be fuming…once he realizes the import of it.

Note, these news outlets do not see how this destroys Obama’s meme or theory …..yet.
PURPLE HEARTS will be the result of this.
PS, Nidal Hasan did NOT start to claim his defense until the wartime penalty for treason….hanging… came off the table.
How did it come off the table?
Obama declared the ”war on terror” over just the other day.
No American traitor has been hanged for treason during ”peacetime.”
OBAMA should know that PEACE TIME END WHEN A TERRORIST
ATTACK AMERICAN SOLDIERS and KILLED COWARDLY 12 and INJURED 30, who had took him as a BROTHER, therefor unsuspecting of what he would do when their back was turned,
on the name of ALAKBAR,
this is a declaration of WAR,
hang ASSAD high on the tree designed as a CROSS
and bring a PASTOR to pray GOD for his soul to be damned
as soon as he give his last breath, without any 72 VIRGINS,
for revenge on his killing and injuring our sons and daughters bravest.
@drjohn:
Of course it would, but with Far-left Progressive control of all three branches of the Federal government, who would be left to correct such a violation of the Constitution and Bill Of Rights? At that point the only solution would be revolution. The Federal government would then, (if it hasn’t already,) go door to door confiscating private citizen’s weapons. They would do so with the blessing of the UN’s ATT agreement which make it illegal by international law for any other nation to supply such a civil insurgence.
Checkmate!
Ditto
THEY DID IT down SOUTH was it LOUISIANA,
and most citizens let it happen, and many never got their weapons back
and many did find them broken unoperative,
it was the NATIONAL GUARD who confiscated it,
I think that when the LEVY broke and after a big storm
you surely know what I am talking about,
bye
@ilovebeeswarzone:
I know Bees, Louisiana was a perfect example of the illegal and unconstitutional confiscation of the lawfully owned arms of citizens by progressive-extremist government officials. The officials justified their “authority” via a complete and deliberate miss-reading of Louisiana law. There should be a class action lawsuit naming every government official involved, as having willfully violated these citizen’s Constitutional rights, and demanding the immediate return of each and every weapon to it’s rightful owner, or equitable compensation for the loss, with financial damages assessed to these oath-breaking officials to be repaid to the citizens for violating their rights. A ruling by the 5th District Court (Houston v. City of New Orleans filed on behalf of Mr. Houston by the Louisiana ACLU,) declares: that two state statutes “mandate the return of property … to its lawful owner when it is not contraband and is no longer needed by law enforcement.” The opinion returned the case to a lower court, where, if the government attempts to further retain Houston’s firearm, the district attorney will be required to make the case that the government has an “active ‘use’ or ‘need’” for the gun.

@Nan G: #16
Don’t count obama out yet. He hates to give awards to military personnel, so his puppeteers are trying to figure a way out of this. He might just not respond to it. This is what his handlers tell him to do when they can’t come up with a believable answer to something.
@Brother Bob:
Not sure if you have had the time to read the ATT treaty yet. I’ve posted links and relative segments above. I realized that I didn’t quite cover your “devil’s advocate” question.
Earlier versions of the treaty had required registration for small arms. Changes have been made in the language that allow the exporting or importing nations decide on whether the end user has to register the weapon. The language of the current version of the treaty (Articles 5 & 12) can allow for an exporting nation to require conditional registration of their arms sold to the end user in the importing nation if required by the laws of the exporting nation.
An additional problem is that (in Article 20: Amendments: #3) the treaty can be changed by a 3/4 majority vote of all member nations. That means that they can put the earlier registration requirement right back in over the protestations of the minority voting nations.
@Nan G:
Sheesh! You can’t make this stuff up, no one would believe it. Your post deserves it’s own FA article.

yes but sad that the best of this NATION have to die
for the scumbags hurting and destroying this beautiful AMERICA.
MISTER BOEMER,
you said you trust OBAMA to explain why he want VERIZON to give him the billions of phone calls
from AMERICANS CITIZENS,
it sound to me like his escalating plan to become the DICTATOR with a coup organize a la HITLER,
I was told that HITLER WAS ADVISE BY THE MULTI A MUSLIM LEADER which HITLER CAME TO LIKE
and obeyed his advices concerning the JEWS, those he sent to be killed or tormented to death, or use to pick up the dead JEWS, or use to make experiments, or more of they could think of,
it did not began like that, it began with CAMPAIGNS promises and indoctrination of the youth
like OBAMA IS DOING, they will obey his commands,
see no FLAG no prayers no GOD no JESUS in schools
obeyed to the TEE by the TEACHERS and UNIONS,
and than HITLER BECAME INVINCIBLE, there was no way to stop him, and yes he had a brain problem, he had violent angers coming out of nowhere if he was admonish or critisize. he had his crews to cover his uncontroled angers, they where probing all the citizens,
who start to disappear a bit at the time,
and no way to kill HITLER either and he was glorified by the MUSLIM MULTI HATER OF JEWS, just like you see in the WHITE HOUSE, he was glorified by his followers,
MR BOEMER WHEN WILL YOU KNOW for sure the RIGHT TIME to stop him before it’s too late?
THE PEOPLE ARE WAITING,
CHEKMATE
Yo!
Anyone recognize this blast from the past:
Amendment IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
Nice.
Kess
I like you’re right to the point,
and YES it does all that,
what right do they have to demand this on AMERICANS,
they live on AMERICAN land for a bitty nickel compare to elsewhere,
we provide their security, and they have the gall to start war and ask us to fight it with
our bloody lives
and wounds, see the VETERAN”S hospitals,
they act exactly like the IRS, that is ABUSING AMERICA’s tolerance,
THEY need to go, but OBAMA is in their pants and will help them when they ask,
@AdrianS: #27
obama sees the Constitution and the amendments as “bumps in the road” on his route to his agenda. Since he wants to get rid of them completely, he doesn’t worry about following them now.
America in the Midst of a Coup d’Etat
I don’t usually listen to Rush Limbaugh, I understand his point of view on most things, and while I often don’t agree with him (I think he’s a bit of a windbag,) I think the transcript of his show that I partially quoted, hit’s the nail on the head and is worth reading. Obama told us that he wants to fundamentally transform America, and it is becoming quite clear with all these heavy-handed government scandals and his Wilsonian progressive era modus operandus, that the form of totalitarianism by the far-left elite that Woodrow Wilson tried to transform this nation into, is precisely the same form of socialistic oligarchy that Obama and the rest of the Washington DC progressives (establishment Republicans included,) seek to make the United States into.
Ditto
I am so glad you gave this comment,
IN the time I was thinking of giving my thoughts which hit me yesterday after I watch HANNITY at FOX,
my thoughts are,this:
if some IRS revealed some of the TEA PARTY members they claimed by error unavertanly,
NOW WE LEARNED OF THE NRS, then, how much more then the IRS will circulate and land at the oponant
laptop, because the NRS are a hundred time wider and bigger than IRS,
can you envisage the GOVERNMENT increase POWER by just having each person profile under their
fingers only task to click on that profile they chose, for their distribution of threat and inciting
as the IRS did on a smaller scale,
now notice the leaning of OBAMA on another massive multiple COUNTRIES with the same ideology and religion together, IMAGINE THEM HAVING THAT DATA suplyed by leadership of AMERICA or
by order from that leader
to his loyals followers working in the SAME GOVERNMENT WITH ACCES ILLIMITED TO THE DATA
META OR BETA OR ELSE THEY CALL IT,
all is left for them is get in and take POWER, am I right?
easy for the leadership to eliminate the non loyals helped by the millions of those loyal foreigners he had help himself to set up into his BIG PLAN. and then achieving it globaly supported,
and trapping the AMERICANS PRISONER IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY no more able to function
in their new orders, and being exterminate as a NATION of AMERICANS set to disapear by the new set up
of those HORDES inside made up of criminals and foreign muslims and illegal who have been made legal by this leadership, which is at our door,
ah crazy no it can’t be realistic, nah she is a nut a fabricater of bad dream,
that’s what the JEWISH PEOPLE WHERE SAYING WHEN HITLER”S SS WHERE ROUNDING THEM UP
IN THOSE TRAIN OF DEATH telling them it was RELOCATING FOR THEIR BEST INTEREST.

@Ditto: #30
I have listened to conservative radio talk shows most of my 20 years driving across the USA. The biggest problem I have with them is that, even though they do all of the talking between calls, they have to do most of the talking when someone calls. I want to hear what the caller has to say, even if the caller disagrees, but they all start arguing with the caller, or hang up on them. Mike Savage is the worst one for this. He says liberals don’t call him, but when they do, he starts to argue with them, then hangs up on them.
For some time I have felt that the congress and the white house has been infiltrated. We have done the same to other countries to change them. To think that it can’t happen to us is just letting them get further in.
Ditto
if the take over was done in 1814 by CANADIANS under the BRITISH power,
because they had been attacked by AMERICANS and some where killed,
yes they took over the WHITE HOUSE and burn it,
I was so surprised to learn about this just last week by a NEWFOUNDLAND local,
I had not learn it in my schooling,
SO imagine the NOW scale of opportunity given to the FRIENDS OF OBAMA,
with the OPEN BORDERS DOWN SOUTH or even THE WATERWAYS surrounding AMERICA,
they can invade claiming peaceful demands to land, they could even do it all together at the same times from all entry,
why not? who will stop them? NOT THE OBAMIST minions for sure they are big negatives decisions making to hurt the CONSERVATIVES and blame and demonize them,
but they would welcome them with brotherly love.
and the CONSERVATIVES WOULD BE THE BRAVES TO ATTACK THOSE welcome by OBAMA,
Ditto
hi,
I think OBAMA has his world upside down because he make the AMERICANS guilty for the crimes of the TERRORISTS
why should AMERICANS be included in the NSR search, why should we be part of the security probes?
obama is part of the arrival of millions of ILLEGALS from about 150 COUNTRIES
not THE PEOPLE,he should be research himself, we don’t know nothing from his birth or school or id different one.
or why did he go to PAKISTAN A COUNTRY BAN BY THE USA at the time of PRESIDENT GEORGE BUSH, all unanswered questions he never answered, he could be a felon and we would not know,
so NSR check it up FOR THE PEOPLE WHO PAY YOU. the people want to know,
it work two way,
AMERICANS HAVE BEEN PUNISH ENOUGH FOR THE TERRORIST
ACTIONS, TSA WHICH EVERYONE HATE, IRS ARROGANCE
QUESTIONING LIKE THE CONSERVATIVES AND TEA PARTY ARE CRIMINALS AND THIEVES TRYING TO STEAL FROM GOVERNMENT, the IRS MADE THEM FEEL LIKE IT,
and the JOURNALIST SEARCH without notice and again making publicly believe he is a terrorist helper,
and now the NSR search on a grand scale tecnology
leading the PEOPLE OF GOOD FAITH TO BELIEVE THEY ARE
GUILTY OF HAVING THE TERRORIST HERE,
that is the WORLD UPSIDE DOWN AND A PUNISHMENT FROM OBAMA who mention he must punish his enemies,
his enemies are the opposition and he does punish them,
that is the drop to spill over,
and AMERICANS DON”T HAVE TO PAY FOR OBAMA MISTAKES
not anymore, enough is enough.
