"I’ve probably received 100 emails from folks asking me if it’s true that Obama will sign a U.N. gun control treaty requiring confiscation of firearms in the U.S."
"I can no longer take the time to reply individually to these queries ..."
"Civics 101: No treaty is effective unless ratified by a supermajority of the U.S. Senate. The Senate still has not ratified the CIFTA gun control treaty ... There is currently NOT sufficient political will in Washington to muster a supermajority of the Senate to ratify the U.N. treaty ..."
"So, given the current political climate in Washington, the U.N. gun control treaty is not a threat, not to say that the political climate can't change and that we shouldn't be watchful." ... |

TO REMEMBER |
As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. — Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
