The whole thing is a farce!  Why bother when so many will ignore it?!

I have long thought that the United States should leave the U.N., and I am even more convinced now.

According to news reports, the UN Arms Trade Treaty will probably pass overwhelmingly when it goes to the UN General Assembly.  However, the 29 nations (mostly dictatorships) who voted against it earlier have shown their hand.  The probability of these nations following the Treaty is unlikely and the enforcement of those not obeying is the…

Predictable and a waste of time. You have to honor a treaty for it to be meaningful.

First of all, I am against this treaty that could force the United States to have to rewrite our own Constitution-the Second Amendment- in order for us to comply with future world court legal opinions.

This treaty like most others that are passed through the UN will have no respect and no enforcement mechanism. The sad part of the scenario is that the treaty will pass and the US will most likely vote for the Treaty in Assembly. This is shameful. Especially so since there is no "right to self…

The United States is a sovereign nation and should not require the approval of other countries to export/import arms. Since gun control can't pass Congress, this is the only way to limit our 2nd amendment rights.

My thoughts are simply that the goal of the United Nations is to control the world.  Dictators will never abide by an arms treaty or any other treaties, embargoes, etc.  The United States  should stop supporting the UN and its actions.  We need to concentrate on that is best for America and protecting our citizens.…
