This UN treaty also imposes domestic arms control regulations by stealth. It implements seriously onerous gun control on all Americans and eviscerates the 2nd Amendment.

Yet 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." See: http://ezinearticles.com/7663145

Call your Senator and elected Representatives and tell them to vote against it!
