UN Small Arms Treaty, look it up. Obama wants to sign it into law vie Executive Order.
I love it when people say "look it up". It is often an indication they are speaking out of their ass.
You are wrong twice over.
First, it must be ratified by the Senate, as others have pointed out.
Second, it has nothing to do with taking away your guns.
I have familiarized myself with the UN documentation and reports surrounding the treaty. There is no treaty yet, but a UN resolution confirmed our right to bear arms in the US as one of the foundations of that treaty which will be finished in a couple days.
The treaty has to do with the prevention of arms trafficking with terrorists, and has nothing to do with the derringer in your purse. It will affect the bottom line of arms manufacturers, so they are working overtime to make people like you believe this treaty means Obama will come for your guns next week.
I also checked it out, my understanding is as yours. The treaty, as yet UNFINISHED, addresses manufacturers, not individual owners. I believe Conservative pointed that out first.
