Dear fellow Patriot,
Gun-grabbers around the globe believe they have it made..
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton recently announced the Obama
Administration
will be working hand-in-glove with the UN to pass a new “Small Arms Treaty.â€
Disguised as an “International Arms Control Treaty†to fight
against
“terrorism,†“insurgency†and “international crime syndicates,†the
UN’s Small
Arms Treaty is in fact a massive, GLOBAL gun control scheme.
I’m helping lead the fight to defeat this radical treaty in the
United States
Senate and I want your help.
Please join me by taking a public stand against this outright
assault on our
national sovereignty by signing the Official Firearms Sovereignty Survey.
Ultimately, the UN’s Small Arms Treaty is designed to register,
ban and
CONFISCATE firearms owned by private citizens like YOU.
So far, the gun-grabbers have successfully kept the exact wording
of their new
scheme under wraps.
But looking at previous versions of the UN Small Arms Treaty, you
and I can get
a good idea of what’s likely in the works.
If passed by the UN and ratified by the U.S. Senate, the UN
“Small Arms
Treaty†would almost certainly FORCE the U..S. to:
*** Enact tougher licensing requirements, making law-abiding
Americans cut
through even more bureaucratic red tape just to own a firearm legally;
*** CONFISCATE and DESTROY ALL “unauthorized†civilian firearms
(all
firearms owned by the government are excluded, of course);
*** BAN the trade, sale and private ownership of ALL semi-automatic
weapons;
*** Create an INTERNATIONAL gun registry, setting the stage for
full-scale gun
CONFISCATION.
I'm sure I don't have to tell you that this is NOT a fight we can
afford to
lose.
Ever since its founding 65 years ago, the United Nations has been
hell-bent on
bringing the United States to its knees.
To the petty dictators and one-world socialists who control the UN,
the United
States of America isn’t a “shining city on a hill†-- it’s an affront
to their grand
designs for the globe.
These anti-gun globalists know that so long as Americans remain
free to make our
own decisions without being bossed around by big government bureaucrats,
they’ll NEVER be
able to seize the worldwide power they crave.
And the UN’s apologists also know the most effective way to
finally strip you
and me of ALL our freedoms would be to DESTROY our gun rights.
That’s why I was so glad to hear that the National Association
for Gun Rights
is leading the fight to stop this assault on our Constitution!
The truth is there’s no time to waste.
You and I have to be prepared for this fight to move FAST.
The fact is the last thing the gun-grabbers at the UN and in
Washington, D.C.
want is for you and me to have time to mobilize gun owners to defeat this
radical
legislation.
They’ve made that mistake before, and we’ve made them pay,
defeating EVERY
attempt to ram the “Treaty on Small Arms†into law since the mid-1990s.
But now time may not be on our side.
In fact, we’re likely to only have a few weeks to defeat the
treaty when they
make their move.
And we definitely don’t have a President in the White House who
will oppose
this treaty.
So our ONE AND ONLY CHANCE to stop the UN’s “Small Arms
Treaty†is during
the ratification process in the U.S. Senate.
As you know, it takes 67 Senate votes to ratify a treaty.
With new pro-gun champions joining me in the Senate, rounding up
enough votes to
kill this thing should be easy, right?
Unfortunately, that couldn’t be further from the truth.
Even with the Republican tidal wave in November, there still
isn’t a pro-gun
majority in the Senate to kill ratification of the treaty.
You know just as well as I do how few Senators are truly
“pro-gun.â€
Not only that, but many Senators get “queasy†about killing
treaties for
fear of “embarrassing†the President -- especially with “international
prestige†at
stake.
They look at ratifying treaties much like approving the
President’s Supreme
Court nominees.
Remember how many Senators turned their back on us and voted to
confirm anti-gun
Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor?
A dozen more only voted against Sotomayor after receiving massive
grassroots
pressure from the folks back home.
So if we’re going to defeat the UN’s Small Arms Treaty we have
to turn the
heat up on the U.S. Senate now before it’s too late!
Do you believe the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the
Second
Amendment are the supreme law of the land?
Do you believe any attempt by the United Nations to subvert or
supersede your
Constitutional rights must be opposed?
If you said “Yes†to these questions, please sign the survey
the National
Association for Gun Rights has prepared for you.
Your survey will put you squarely on the record AGAINST the UN’s
Small Arms
Treaty.
And along with your signed survey, I hope you’ll send a generous
contribution
of $250, $100, $50 or even just $35 to help finance this battle.
With your generous contribution, the National Association for Gun
Rights will
continue contacting Second Amendment supporters to turn up the heat on targeted
U.S.
Senators.
Not only that, but they’re preparing a massive program to launch
the second
this treaty is brought before the Senate.
Direct mail. Phones. E-mail. Blogs. Guest editorials. Press
conferences.
Hard-hitting internet, newspaper, radio and even TV ads if funding permits.
The whole nine
yards.
Of course, a program of this scale is only possible if the National
Association
for Gun Rights can raise the money.
But that’s not easy, and we may not have much time.
In fact, if gun owners are going to defeat the UN’s Small Arms
Treaty pro-gun
Americans like you and me have to get involved NOW!
So please put yourself on record AGAINST the UN’s Small Arms
Treaty by signing
NAGR’s Firearms Sovereignty Survey.
But along with your survey, please agree to make a generous
contribution of
$250, $100, $50 or even just $35.
And every dollar counts in this fight so even if you can only chip
in $10 or
$20, it will make a difference.
Thank you in advance for your time and money devoted to defending
our Second
Amendment rights.
For Freedom,
Rand Paul
United States Senator
P.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has announced the Obama
Administration
will be working hand in glove with the United Nations to pass a new GLOBAL,
“Small Arms
Treaty.â€
If we’re going to defeat the UN’s Small Arms Treaty we have to
turn the heat
up on the U.S. Senate now before it’s too late!
Please return your Firearms Sovereignty Survey and put yourself
squarely on the
record AGAINST ratification of the UN’s Small Arms Treaty.
And if you can, please make a generous contribution to the National
Association
for Gun Rights of $250, $150, $100 or even just $35 right away!
And every dollar counts in this fight so even if you can only chip
in $10 or
$20, it will make a difference.
