TX Atty General Greg Abbott Declares "Red Flag Alert" in Response to UN Arms Control Treaty
The treaty is aimed primarily at the trafficking of tanks, armored vehicles and other conventional weapons of warfare. There are provisions in the treaty, however, that call for nation states to provide gun registrations to the U.N. and to restrict the sale of yet to be determined small arms.
Secretary of State John Kerry said in a statement today, "As the United States has required from the onset of these negotiations, nothing in this treaty could ever infringe on the rights of American citizens under our domestic law or the Constitution, including the Second Amendment."

In a letter to President Obama today, Gen. Abbott stated, "Treaties do not trump constitutional liberties. Even if you, as the President, signed and the Senate ratified the UN Arms Trade Treaty, our Constitution remains the Supreme Law of the Land and would supersede any treaty provision that violated Second Amendment rights."
Abbott is rightly concerned that if our government can use the U.N. to circumvent the Constitutionally guaranteed liberties of the Second Amendment, it could equally be used to attack and strip other liberties protected by our Constitution. "Regardless of their position on gun rights, all Americans should oppose any treaty that does not adequately protect our constitutional rights. If the Second Amendment can be trusted to international organizations that do not share our constitutional traditions, then why not the First Amendment? Why not the Fourth Amendment or the Fifth Amendment?," Abbott continued in his letter to Obama.
For the treaty to become law in America, the President of the United States must first accept the treaty by signature and then present it to the U.S. Senate for ratification. Ratification requires a 2/3rds majority of Senators to approve the treaty for it to become law.
