Did you know there were 20 REPUBLICANS in favor of the UN GUN BAN TREATY (UN Arms Trade Treaty)? Their oath of office requires them to protect and defend our Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. How can they be protecting our Constitution when they are one of its domestic enemies?

Please contact these quislings and let them know how you feel about their betrayal:

Here's a sample letter:

Dear Congressman X:

Your oath of office requires you to support and defend our Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Our Second Amendment is as much a part of our Constitution as any other section. In writing you, I'm exercising my First Amendment rights because your position on this issue is eroding my rights as recognized and protected under our Second Amendment.

I don't know what you've been told by the United Nations or briefed by your staffers, but have you actually read their draft document? Are you aware the language contained therein seriously undermines our Second Amendment rights and provides the impetus to eradicate it altogether? Do you have any idea what that would mean for the safety and security on Americans in our country?

If you still support the UN ATT, you may think you do, but you don't. Consider:

1. After England's severe restrictions against private ownership of firearms, violent crime rose by more than 40%.

2. After Australia's severe restrictions against private ownership of firearms, violent crime rose by more than 60%.

3. Of the top thirty major metropolitan areas by population, the correlation between gun control and crime is greater than 70%. And no, gun control isn't necessary because of the crime! Crime follows changes in gun control laws. When gun control is relaxed, crime drops. When it's increased, crime rises.

4. Kinnewick, GA, which actually mandates the private ownership of firearms, enjoys a ridiculously low rate of crime, while crime in neighboring cities is several times higher.

5. Among the 15 states with the highest homicide rates, 10 have restrictive or very restrictive gun laws.

6. Nearly all gun massacres occur in gun-free zones: Aurora, Columbine, Virginia Tech, Lubys. No law abiding citizens were armed, because they weren't allowed to be armed.

7. Meanwhile, lawfully-armed citizens stop more than 1 million crimes each year, and with a rate of injury or death to innocent civilians that's five times less than the rate experienced by law enforcement officers.

These and thousands of additional statistics, many of which you can examine for free at www.gunfacts.info, all say the same thing: The right to keep and bear arms should NOT be infringed. I find it interesting how precisely this mirrors our Constitution, which says "...the right to keep and bear arms SHALL not be infringed."

Why don't you give our Founding Fathers their due and stop allowing the UN to undermine our Constitutional freedoms? Instead, try this idea on for size: Start fighting for our Constitutional freedoms. Instead of being a domestic enemy, start protecting and defending our Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

Only then will I vote for you.

I already did on 07/10/12 & here's proof.

Link to OC.o thread;:arrow:http://forum.opencarry.org/forums/s...ail-Your-Senators-About-U-N-Arms-Trade-Treaty

E-Mail Your Senators About U.N. Arms Trade Treaty

This is a copy of an e-mail which I just sent to State Senator Collins of Maine.

Dear Ms. Collins,


I'm quite sure that you are aware of the critical issues at stake this election year.

IMHO, one that is of the utmost importance, at this time, is the peoples Right to Keep and Bear Arms. We as a Free Society are witnessing the blatant disregard for our Constitution & Bill of Rights from the top down.

Please take the time to make known to your associates that the Voters of America are watching how You All in D.C. are going to react, respond & DEFEND our Rights.

So, if you haven't done this already, please read the following information about a far reaching issue that has the ability, if allowed, to strangle the taxpayers & Patriots of this Great Nation of ours.

Thank You for your time !
Respectfully, God Bless You & God Bless the USA !!!

"The U.N. Arms Trade Treaty’s Criteria for Transfers Pose Problems for the U.S."

"The framework on which the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty (ATT), currently being negotiated, is likely to be based is clear: It will set out criteria that signatories must apply to proposed arms transfers and require them to decide whether the proposed transfer poses a risk under any of those criteria. But these criteria are likely to be ill-defined, and the ATT's "checklist" model differs fundamentally from the "guidance" model that the U.S. currently employs. Worst of all, the ATT will enumerate criteria that will be easy to expand in ways that the U.S. cannot control. If the ATT is to exist, it should be based on a commitment by willing and democratic signatories to develop effective systems of border and export control."

"Key Points,

1 The U.N. Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) will be finalized in late July, but its likely framework is already clear.

2 This framework rests on the effort to establish criteria by which the potential consequences of arms transfers must be assessed.

3 The ATT criteria are likely to be ill defined and to be incompatible in many ways with both the U.S. national interest and the criteria the U.S. currently employs.

4 The ATT’s model for using these criteria is incompatible with the model employed by the U.S. under Presidential Decision Directive 34, which dates from 1995.

5 Unless the ATT departs fundamentally and unexpectedly from its current track, it will, if ratified, require the U.S. to revise PDD 34.

6 Any ATT should be based on requiring effective border and export control by willing and democratic signatories"

Reply from Sen. Collins

Dear Scott58dh:

Thank you for contacting me with your concerns about the proposed United Nations Arms Trade Treaty. I appreciate your taking the time to do so.

Last year, I joined 44 of my colleagues in sending a letter to President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton expressing our concerns about the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty. Earlier this month, I joined 42 of my colleagues in a letter clearly stating our opposition to the ratification of any treaty that restricts constitutional rights granted to United States citizens by the Second Amendment.

Throughout my service in the Senate, I have consistently defended the Second Amendment. I oppose any treaty or legislation that would restrict the fundamental right to gun ownership for law-abiding citizens. I grew up in northern Maine, where responsible gun ownership is a part of the heritage of most families. Denying the rights of law-abiding citizens will not change the behavior of those intent on using firearms for criminal purposes.

Should this Treaty be sent to the Senate I will oppose its ratification.

Sincerely,

Susan M. Collins
United States Senator


SO, what You say SHE did and what SHE said to ME in HER Reply to MY e-mail B4 the vote on the UN-ATT, Just Don't ADD UP !!!

Where/Who did You get YOUR Info from ???
