Pres. Obama is now pushing the U.S. Congress to ratify an international treaty called the Inter-American Convention Treaty (CIFTA) that would register U.S. guns and U.S. gun owners into a global registry that all foreign nations could access. Those foreign nations would have the power to prosecute U.S. gun owners under this treaty if those guns were involved in some sort of crime. Under the treaty that Obama wants to pass, the U.S. would approve extradition.
Senator Dick Lugar, a Republican from Indiana is also leading the fight to pass this treaty.
Globalization is on the march. We must take a stand.
