"The French soldiers are grand. They are grand. There is no other word to express it."

"Suchan said U.S. arms trade law is seen as the global “gold standard” for regulating arms transfers, but doubted many countries would be willing to raise the bar that high. Instead, the treaty that emerges is expected to set a lower global standard – which Suchan said would have the effect of reducing Washington’s ability to press for voluntary arms embargoes against rogue states."
I wonder how true this statement is, and how the real world regulations and enforcement of arms trades and transfer would stack up to the crap that we already have to endure.
I have no intention of following anything the UN says. The Constitution is the law of the land and the UN can go fuck themselves. They are worthless.

Hear ye
I think it is time to contact our "Representatives" and advise them ON NO UNCERTAIN TERMS will this Treaty be tolerated by their constituents and if they sign/vote in it's approval they have commited a direct crime against the Constitution and have acted to harm the soviergnty of this nation and will be viewed as a Treasonous act.
And if I as a United States citizen fall within "Foreign Sights" as denoted by the title of this thread I shall hold a foreigner within my sights.

Absolute hubris if the administration sends it to the senate.
It will never pass and only motivate people to get to the polls to vote the impostor out.
