Coach is Right – by Doug BookIt has taken the global left nearly 2 decades to usher the Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) through the friendly confines of the United Nations. Offered for signature in its final form in June, the Treaty which purports to “establish common international standards for regulating the trade in conventional arms,” really is as dangerous to the right of Americans to keep and bear arms as 2nd Amendment supporters have claimed since the Obama Regime–specifically, Hillary Clinton–began the push for the Treaty’s eventual ratification several years ago. (1)
The ATT was deliberately written in broad, general terms throughout most of its text. In this way, the Treaty can generously “reaffirm the sovereign right of any State to regulate and control conventional arms exclusively within its territory, pursuant to its own legal or constitutional system.” (1) Of course this language from the Preamble mentions nothing about keeping or bearing arms, just regulation and control.
And to effectively manage that process of regulation and control, the Treaty “…require[s] that states “establish and maintain a national control system, including a national control list” and “designate competent national authorities in order to…regulate the transfer of conventional arms.” (2) (my italics)
Of course, in and of itself a “national control system” can mean virtually anything. But when someone with Barack Obama’s noted contempt for the right to keep and bear arms is charged with implementing the Treaty, a “national control system including a national control list” can mean just one thing–the nationwide registration of firearms.
Anyone who believes this to be a reach should know that Treaty authors considered the national control system important enough to be mentioned 10 times in the ATT’s text. In fact, the control system and control list are deemed mandatory “in order to implement the provisions of the Treaty,” that is, “to regulate the export of amunition/munitions…” (1)
And just to make doubly sure that everything will be securely under UN control, the General Implementation rules in Article 5 of the Treaty direct that each State Party, “…pursuant to its national laws, shall provide its national control list to the Secretariat, which shall make it available to other States Parties. States Parties are encouraged to make their control lists publicly available.” (1) Not only will our own federal government have a list of gun owners along with the weapons they own, the United Nations want to share that information with the rest of the world! All the better to keep track of those elusive bad guys, of course.
Few believe Obama will get the 67 Senate votes necessary to ratify the ATT. But it is important to understand that “signing also creates an obligation, in the period between signing and ratification or consent to be bound, to refrain from acts that would defeat the object and purpose of the treaty.” (3) Certainly allowing the free, unregistered purchase of firearms would “defeat the object and purpose of the Treaty!” Would Barack permit the spirit and meaning of the 2nd Amendment to undo the “noble” intent of the ATT?
Neither court decisions nor the language of the Constitution have deterred this corrupt president in the past. Will the American people be forced to watch as Barack Obama implements the provisions of a treaty which the vast majority do no support and which the US Senate is unlikely to ratify?
Nothing is out of the question when a thuggish president meets a cowardly opposition party.

Ohhh, my panties are all in a knot! I’m scared sh!tless. Dear me, what will we do? Time to curl up like an armadillo and quake in fear. NOT!
FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!!!
I will never comply! I’m looking forward to collecting my scalps(blue hats)!
You don’t have to exercise your 2nd Amendment right till they come to collect them from you.Then it is your right to exercise that right against the terrorist at your door. Rhumstruck is right on the money. If these fools really are that stupid then they leave the citizens with no choice but GAME ON! Phuque em
“From my cold dead hands”
It’s a treaty that’s null & void under the U.S. Constitution. Kiss my wrinkled azz & go piss up a rope.
Haha! Yep. That about sums it up in a nutshell.
“States Parties are encouraged to make their control lists publicly available.”
Hahahaha! “Encouraged” or in Communist speak “Required”.
Remember how we were “encouraged” to register our firearms and eventually they force those who don’t “encouragingly” comply by trying to make it a twisted moral (aka immoral) “obligation”, followed by a “requirement”? That’s how it starts and anyone who thinks otherwise is a DAMN FOOL!
Right on Bent Spear, maybe we should spend a little more time reading
the Constitution, and A little less fear mongering. Myself, I can’t wait, you
want the damn guns come and get-em, put your criminal costume on and
come and get-em.
Those corksuckers in the White House ought to do the reading & quit having their f@ggoty lawyers interpret the Law of the Land. If even they did half-azzed poor at their jobs, they’d do good. Having a bunch of twinks for a Supreme Court that can’t decide to sh!t & wipe or wipe & sh!t doesn’t help either.
I was going to smile at one of the comments, then two, then I decided NO.
ALL OF THEM!!!!!!
🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
Yeah, those fools have a lot of nerve thinking
that folks will comply just because some ‘village idiot’
decided to ignore the law of the land and sign an
irrelevant piece of paper.
I thought this article would amuse ……
We the III% will decide when and where to give up our guns,
Stand firm against tyranny!
The government has lost all credibility.
Time for a reset.
We really have no Constitution…..if you read, The Red Amendment (about how the 14th amendment enslaves all of us), by LB Bork, you will see that it’s been usurpt. Google the word USUFRUCT….that’s what they’ve done. The book shows how to expatriate without leaving the country (just knowing the REAL organic LAW) and many are following this movement. You do not need a drivers license under the organic Constitution. When these attorney slimes pass the BAR exam (BAR = British Accreditation Registry), they’re loyal to the Crown and the 20 mile radius of Washington Corporation DC. I hold a committee seat locally and these big wig attorneys come in wanting endorsements. They are so stupid they don’t even understand this information. They just want local power, control and FIAT money. Trying to educate them, well, they think their bloodline is in line with the NWO entities, and they won’t be culled like the rest of us. You can get the above book at the PAC alliance or google for it. We all need to be doing this. 25% of us doing this would make a huge dent in the Machine.
You folks need to pull up the Sipsey street irregulars website and read a couple of the articles over there, one on 4Gwarfare
