Is President Obama Concerned for your Safety?
Is President Obama really concerned about your children's safety, or do his actions contradict his rhetoric? Is he aiming to deny you your right to defend yourself and your children?

Years ago, he did say he recognizes that "gun owners in America are highly responsible," relaxed regulations which prevented citizens from carrying loaded weapons in national parks and reversed a ban on transporting unloaded firearms in checked baggage by train.

Obama confirms He Supports Gun Bans
Yet in an article virtually ignored by the mainstream media, Sarah Brady from the Brady Centre reports on a meeting with White House press secretary Carney. President Obama dropped by to reassure her that gun control was very much on his agenda, "I just want you to know that we are working on it.” He said that his administration is doing whatever it can "under the radar" to surreptitiously undermine the Second Amendment.*

Another prominent gun ban advocate is Representative Carolyn McCarthy. She reports that: "I have spoken to the president. He is with me on [banning firearms], and it’s just going to be when that opportunity comes forward that we’re going to be able to go forward.”

Obama's Administration Enforces Laws Rejected by Congress
Despite NOT being passed, a regulation that was rejected by Congress and so never became law is being enforced by Obama's administration. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) has sent letters instructing various firearms dealers to report sales of two or more semi-automatic firearms (nowadays virtually all guns are semi-automatic). Gun store owners are thus being ordered to become de facto informants on their customers.

These are followed by home visits to intimidate gun owners. Aggressive government agents insist they are allowed inside without a warrant, and imply that the gun owner could be a terrorist simply because they've purchased two or more firearms at one time.

The Senate votes NOT to approve the UN Arms Trade Treaty
On March 23, 2013, the US Senate passed a resolution with a vote of 53-46 to uphold Second Amendment rights and prevent the United States from entering into the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty.”

Most senators realize that the UN gun grab “fails to expressly recognize the fundamental, individual right to keep and to bear arms and the individual right of personal self-defense... and thus risks infringing on freedoms protected by the Second Amendment.”

Yet President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry defied both the Senate as well as the US Constitution and ordered negotiators to approve it. A few days later, April 2, 2013, the USA voted to authorize the UN Arms Trade Treaty.

This draconian gun ban Treaty denies US citizens the right to own, buy, sell, trade, or transfer handguns, or any other "means of armed resistance," see article 2. It includes ammunition as well as all “parts and components” of conventional arms under its control.

The Treaty then goes on to mandate all countries that sign it “establish and maintain a national control system, including a national control list.” And specifies that this control list should apply the provisions of this Treaty to the broadest range of conventional arms.”

The Obama administration's act of voting to approve the Arms Trade Treaty at the UN General Assembly illegally countermands the instructions of the US Senate. Article I of the US Constitution gives Congress - not the President - “all legislative power.” The administration has no right to relinquish that authority to any body, especially one of international bureaucrats neither elected by nor accountable to the people of the USA.**

The Feds buy 1,200,174,000 rounds - over a Billion Bullets
There are many disturbing things about the UN Arms Trade Treaty. It specifically regulates firearms used by responsible citizens to defend themselves. It even sets up a national control system to catalog gun owners and the ammunition you need to protect you and your children.

Meanwhile, various levels of Obama's administration have purchased millions hollow-point bullets for domestic use. Yet using hollow-points are banned internationally as a war crime in international armed conflicts "because they cause gaping wounds which lead to unnecessary suffering."***

The Social Security Administration (SSA) ordered 174,000 hollow point bullets in August 2012 for various locations in the United States, including major cities such as Detroit and Los Angeles.

In March, 2012, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) ordered 450,000,000 hollow point bullets. They placed another order in August 2012 for 750,000,000 more rounds.****

Just these three orders amount to well over a billion rounds - 1,200,174,000 bullets- enough to kill each and every adult in the USA many times over. What does President Obama have planned that you don't know about? Why so many bullets? Why bullets designed to cause gaping wounds and unnecessary suffering? Will they ever be used against regular US citizens - such as you?

Will Your Senator Vote Against the Arms Trade Treaty?
The US Senate needs to approve the UN Arms Trade Treaty for it to become law. Since 67 senators are needed to vote to approve the Treaty, there's a chance it won't become the law. Call your senator to remind them of the oath they took to “preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States,” which includes your right to protect yourself and your children with firearms.*****

Yet with his strong support for gun bans, President Obama shows reckless unconcern for the US Constitution and disconcerting indifference for Congress. Those against the Second Amendment disregard the facts, misrepresent the truth, and thoughtlessly argue for its destruction. Yet the constitution was designed to protect US citizens against oppression by both governments and government officials. It seems to be even more necessary today than ever.

Food for Thought
"What country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time that the people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms... the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time... Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty."

Thomas Jefferson – 3rd President of the United States, American Founding Father, principal author of the Declaration of Independence
