[Jean71]

44 Democrats apparently do not care about the Bill of Rights either...
At least there were a few smart ones.

47 Scumbags in the Senate.

I have to hear is "United Nations" to know I am against whatever it may be.

[helenejen]

Very frightening how easily people swallow down NRA and right-wing propaganda. This Treaty would have ZERO effect on the 2nd Amendment. Did you even bother to read the document? "Private actors" are not subject to the treaty.

How embarrassing that the Yea votes sided with China, Russia, and France.

"Some 108 countries, led by Mexico, issued a joint statement on Monday saying "the overwhelming majority of (U.N.) Member States agree with us on the necessity and the urgency of adopting a strong Arms Trade Treaty. Our voice must be heard." Among that statement's supporters were major arms producers Britain and Germany. The other four top arms exporters - the United States, Russia, China and France - did not endorse it."

I agree. It is frightening our politicians have no clue what they are voting for or against. This bill was worded "to uphold the 2nd amendment......", but it is bullcrap, because no UN treaty can overrule the 2nd amendment or any other amendment. It seems our politicians vote on pure emotion and hit YEA, or NAY based on how the the topic of the bill is worded.
