Traitorous (?) Representation

jlmarta

The following is copied from an email I received. I think it's important enough to be shared with you....: Now, Which 46 Senators Voted to Destroy Us? Well, let their names become known !! See below In a 53-46 vote, the Senate narrowly passed a measure that will stop the United States from entering into the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty. The Statement of Purpose from the Bill reads: "To uphold Second Amendment rights and prevent the United Statesfrom entering into the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty." The U.N. Small Arms Treaty, which has been championed by the Obama Administration, would have effectively placed a global ban on the import and export of small firearms. The ban would have affected all private gun owners in the U.S. and had language that would have implemented an international gun registry, now get this, on all private guns and ammo. Astonishingly, 46 out of our 100 United States Senators were willing to give away our Constitutional rights to a foreign power. Here are the 46 senators who voted to give your rights to the U.N. Baldwin (D-WI) Baucus (D-MT) Bennett (D-CO) Blumenthal (D-CT) Boxer (D-CA) Brown (D-OH) Cantwell (D-WA) Cardin (D-MD) Carper (D-DE) Casey (D-PA) Coons (D-DE) Cowan (D-MA) Durbin (D-IL)j Feinstein (D-CA) Franken (D-MN) Gillibrand (D-NY) Harkin (D-IA) Hirono (D-HI) Johnson (D-SD) Kaine (D-VA) King (I-ME) Klobuchar (D-MN) Landrieu (D-LA) Leahy (D-VT) Levin (D-MI) McCaskill (D-MO) Menendez (D-NJ) Merkley (D-OR) Mikulski (D-MD) Murphy (D-CT) Murray (D-WA) Nelson (D-FL) Reed (D-RI) Reid (D-NV) Rockefeller (D-WV) Sanders (I-VT) Schatz (D-HI) Schumer (D-NY) Shaheen (D-NH) Stabenow (D-MI) Udall (D-CO) Udall (D-NM) Warner (D-VA) Warren (D-MA) Whitehouse (D-RI) Wyden (D-OR) Folks: This needs to go viral. These Senators voted to let the UN take OUR guns. They need to lose their next election. We have been betrayed. 46 Senators Voted to Give your 2nd Amendment Constitutional Rights to the U.N. Please send this to SOMEONE!

Isn't it too bad when facts derail conspiracy theories? One minute of Snopes could lower your blood pressure by 50 points.

I do not support further infringement of our second amendment rights. But I doubt that if push comes to shove that the US, as a people, will tolerate congress adopting rules of a UN treaty that conflict with our constitutional rights. I'm not too worried about this particular issue at this point.

What the US, as a people, support, and what government foists upon us, are too often worlds apart. You may adduce any number of examples yourself, from our own lifetime.

Snopes is not the final word on a dang thing. It is owned and run by a liberal couple with an agenda. Amazes me people are such sheep as to discount facts and opinions that differ from their views because their websites, sources, aunts back what they want to believe. Gentlemen it is a game of divide and conquer. All politicians care about is themselves, their power, and remaining in power. Look over here as I do something sneaky over there. Not judging anyone but seriously snopes is almost as bad as calling someone a racist or bigot because their opinion differs from yours.

Okay, so snopes is out… would you accept Voice of America or Guns & Ammo as a news source on this topic?

In this instance I would go to the Congressional website and look up the vote and the details of what the vote was for. Just like gun and crime statistics everyone tried to manipulate to support their views. I go to the FBI website where you can see the crime statistics for yourself. People just need to look at their sources and check some facts for themselves. Like people saying something like oh you believe everything on Fox News when my opinion is different. Really? That is your weak argument? So instead of throwing that at me how about backing up what your position is because everything on CNN and MSNBC is not the word of God just because it is what you want to believe. Snopes does have some accurate info but just like everything else out there it is subject to bias and inaccuracies when people have agendas.

Wasn't jumping on you and referring to anyone here in my statements. Sometimes they get it right. Just saying snopes shouldn't be treated as the answer to all questionable things and an absolute truth.
