Dear fellow patriot,
With willing one-world accomplices in Washington, D.C., gun-grabbers around the globe believe they have it made.
In fact, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton just announced the Obama Administration would be working hand in glove with the UN to pass a new "Small Arms Treaty."
This is Congressman Paul Broun from Georgia.
I'm writing you to make sure American citizens are prepared to oppose this assault on our national sovereignty and right to keep and bear arms.
Disguised as legislation to help in the fight against "terrorism," "insurgency" and "international crime syndicates," the UN's Small Arms Treaty is nothing more than a massive, GLOBAL gun control scheme.
Ultimately, the UN's Small Arms Treaty is designed to register, ban and CONFISCATE firearms owned by private citizens like YOU.
The National Association for Gun Rights has a Firearms Sovereignty Survey ready for you to complete, but I want you to understand just how dangerous this global gun ban is. Please bear with me for a moment.
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 national governments to:
*** Enact tougher licensing requirements, making law-abiding citizens 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 almost 65 years ago, the United Nations has been hell-bent on bringing the United States to its knees.
To the petty dictators and one-worlders who control the UN, the U.S. isn't a "shining city on a hill" -- it's an affront to their grand totalitarian 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 oppressive 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've decided to stand with the National Association for Gun Rights in their opposition to 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 in the U.N. and in Washington, D.C., want is for you and me to have time to react and 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 this time, time won't be on our side.
In fact, we're likely to only have a few days or weeks to defeat the treaty.
Worse, there's no longer a pro-gun Senate to kill ratification of the treaty.
There's no longer a President in the White House who has stated opposition to the treaty.
And you and I know good and well how Germany, Great Britain, France, Communist China or the rest of the anti-gun members of the United Nations are going to vote.
So our ONE AND ONLY CHANCE of stopping 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.
So rounding up 34 votes to kill this thing should be easy, right?
Unfortunately, that couldn't be further from the truth.
First, you know just as well as I do how few Senators are truly "pro-gun."
Second, even with the partisan rancor in Washington, D.C., 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 Presidents' Supreme Court nominees.
And 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.
With your generous contribution, the National Association for Gun Rights will immediately begin contacting Second Amendment supporters to turn up the heat on targeted U.S. Senators.
Direct mail. Phones. E-mail. Blogs. Billboards. Guest editorials. Press conferences. Hard-hitting newspaper, radio and TV ads. The whole nine yards.
Of course, if NAGR can raise enough resources, their goal is to expand this full program to ALL their target states.
But that's not going to be cheap, and we may not have much time.
In fact, if we're going to defeat the UN's so-called "Small Arms Treaty," we have to start NOW!
So please put yourself on record AGAINST the UN's "Small Arms Treaty" by signing NAGR's Firearms Sovereignty Survey.
Thank you in advance for contributing you time and money towards defending our Second Amendment rights.
For Freedom,
Dr. Paul Broun, M.D.
U.S. Congressman (R-GA)
P.S. The Obama Administration just announced they would be working hand in glove with the UN to pass a new GLOBAL, "Small Arms Treaty."
That's why its vital you and I fight back IMMEDIATELY.
Which, by the way, only applies to guns traded between nations,
We make too many good weapons not to sell them to 3rd world nations to fuel civil wars for profit, damnit. What are we a bunch of dirty communists? NO!! Let's sell those guns to Mexico for their drug war and our profits!!
Ask them to start with our military. If they say "NO", ask them why. When they answer, say "I REST NY CASE". Bye Adam Troy
1. Dumb everyone down by controlling what they learn.
2. Make them dependent on government.
3. Pay them to stay home and lose the inspiration to do better for themselves.
4. Take away their choices by making capitalism look bad.
5. Remove their ability to defend themselves.
Hypocrites. *rolls eyes*
I don't blame the British for wanting them back either. More homes started getting broken into after gun laws were passed - while the people were still at home.
If there are no gun laws then criminals will always fear getting their asses shot off - so at the very least, they'll wait until you leave.
Guess what people, the 2nd amendment is LONG OUTDATED!
You've obviously never heard of criminals - you know, breaking and entering, have you?
wake up and smell the coffee, coffee man
Conservative activists across the country are celebrating this success.
Now, sometimes folks assume that just because a politician is a Republican, he is a solid supporter of the Second Amendment.
I hope you don’t make that mistake. We can't afford to accept lip service on this vital issue -- which is why I send all candidates the National Association for Gun Rights' Federal Candidate Survey.
You see, you and I are only one or two votes shy in the U.S. Senate of losing our right to keep and bear arms.
We have the most anti-gun administration in nearly 20 years. The last time such a rabid anti-gunner was in charge in Washington, we got the Brady Bill, a ban on an entire class of semi-automatic hunting and target rifles, and millions of gun owners lost their rights.
So, I hate to tell you this, but I have bad news.
We don’t know if Tim Bridgewater or Mike Lee support your right to keep and bear arms.
I have sent Tim Bridgewater and Mike Lee the National Association for Gun Rights’ Federal Candidate Survey twice, but they have not responde...

In some cases, politicians refuse to answer the tough questions we ask.
Unfortunately, when politicians refuse to answer, it virtually always means they’d vote anti-gun if elected.
Often, it’s a sign that they’re hiding their anti-gun views.
So, the question is, do Tim Bridgewater and Mike Lee support your individual right to keep and bear arms???
Do they support banning semi-automatic sporting and hunting rifles?
Are they in favor of the U.N. gun controls that are right now looming over our head?
Honestly, we don't know if Tim Bridgewater and Mike Lee don’t answer these questions, it should make any gun owner skeptical.
Please help me get to the truth.
Please contact Tim Bridgewater and Mike Lee and demand that they answer the National Association for Gun Rights' Federal Candidate Survey.
If they continue to refuse to return the National Association for Gun Rights, Utah gun owners should view their silence as anti-gun.

P.S. Utah Republican Senate Candidates Tim Bridgewater and Mike Lee have not returned their National Association for Gun Rights’ Federal Candidate Surveys.
Consequently, we don’t know if Tim Bridgewater or Mike Lee support your firearm rights.
Call Mike Lee and Tim Bridgewater and demand that they return the National Association for Gun Rights’ Federal Candidate Survey.
They so WANT President Obama to be after their guns to validate the "cold dead hands" bravado that the fact he isn't is not even aloud in their heads.
