UN Small Treaty Meets in July 2012
Cheaper than dirt posted a article about it
June 18, 2012 Rumor Control: Is the UN Small Arms Treaty a Threat to The United States 2nd Amendment Rights? This picture brought a though to mind. This picture represents hatered toward our/a constitutional right. Why is this allowed? What if I made a metal statue of putting women down, or putting voters down? how well would that go over?

Is only politically correct art to be allowed? Only art that absolutely nobody finds "offensive" or finds the message disagreeable? "Why is this allowed?" Because we have something called the First Amendment that allows such things. Even things that ruffle feathers. |

We've discussed the UN Small Arms Treaty in 5,437,223 other threads, and this is something of a drive-by.
The Constitution (and the Reid decision) clarify the matter well. The Scary Blue Helmets aren't coming for our guns any time soon.
