The United Nations War on Your Gun Rights Continues
The United Nations Arms Trade Treaty is in its final days of negotiations. This treaty will affect every single gun owner in the country and will almost certainly include:
* A ban on certain semi-automatic firearms (e.g., the Clinton gun ban);
* Registration of gun owners (and, thanks to the unconstitutional instant check, the framework for such registration actually exists in the United States, unlike many of the countries that are negotiating the treaty);
* The mandatory destruction of surplus or confiscated firearms, and;
* Mandatory micro-stamping of ammunition, and much more.
Please sign the petition below to the U.S. Senate. GOA will present your petition directly to your two U.S. Senators.
