A message from Rand Paul:  Please read and sign the petition, link is at the bottom.  This one needs to be stopped before Reid gets it ratified in the sentate.

 

Dear fellow Patriot,

Gun-grabbers around the globe believe they have it
made.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton recently announced the Obama
Administration will be working hand-in-glove with the UN to pass a new "Small
Arms Treaty."

Disguised as an "International Arms Control Treaty" to
fight against "terrorism," "insurgency" and "international crime syndicates,"
the UN Small Arms Treaty is in fact a massive, GLOBAL gun control
scheme.

I'm helping lead the fight to defeat this radical treaty in the
United States Senate and I want your help.

Please join me by taking a
public stand against this outright assault on our national sovereignty by
signing the Official Firearms
Sovereignty Survey.

Ultimately, the UN Small Arms Treaty
is designed to register, ban and CONFISCATE firearms owned by private citizens
like YOU.

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 the U.S. to:

*** Enact tougher licensing
requirements, making law-abiding Americans 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 65 years ago, the United Nations has been hell-bent on bringing the
United States to its knees.

To the petty dictators and one-world
socialists who control the UN, the United States of America isn't a "shining
city on a hill" -- it's an affront to their grand 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 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 was so glad to hear that the National
Association for Gun Rights is leading the fight to stop 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 at the UN and
in Washington, D.C. want is for you and me to have time to 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 UN Small Arms Treaty
into law since the mid-1990s.

But now time may not be on our
side.

In fact, we're likely to only have a few weeks to defeat the treaty
when they make their move.

And we definitely don't have a President in
the White House who will oppose this treaty.

So our ONE AND ONLY
CHANCE to stop the UN 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.

With new pro-gun champions joining me in the Senate, rounding
up enough votes to kill this thing should be easy,
right?

Unfortunately, that couldn't be further from the
truth.

Even with the Republican tidal wave in 2010, there still isn't a
pro-gun majority in the Senate to kill ratification of the treaty.

You
know just as well as I do how few Senators are truly "pro-gun."

Not only
that, but 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 the
President's Supreme Court nominees.

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 Small Arms Treaty gun owners 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 Small Arms Treaty.

 

And along with your
signed survey, I hope you'll send a generous contribution of $250, $100, $50 or
even just $35 to help finance this battle.

With your generous
contribution, the National Association for Gun Rights will continue contacting
Second Amendment supporters to turn up the heat on targeted U.S.
Senators.

Not only that, but they're preparing a massive program to
launch the second this treaty is brought before the Senate.

Direct mail.
Phones. E-mail. Blogs. Guest editorials. Press conferences. Hard-hitting
internet, newspaper, radio and even TV ads if funding permits. The whole nine
yards.

Of course, a program of this scale is only possible if the
National Association for Gun Rights can raise the money.

But that's
not easy, and we may not have much time.

In fact, if gun owners are going
to defeat the UN Small Arms Treaty pro-gun Americans like you and me have to get
involved NOW!

So please put yourself on record AGAINST the UN Small Arms
Treaty by signing NAGR's Firearms
Sovereignty Survey.

But along with your
survey, please agree to make a generous contribution of $250, $100, $50 or even
just $35.

And every dollar counts in this fight so even if
you can only chip in $10 or
$20, it will make a difference.

Thank you in advance for your
time and money devoted to defending our Second Amendment rights.

For
Freedom,

Rand Paul
United States Senator

P.S. Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton has announced the Obama Administration will be working hand in
glove with the United Nations to pass a new GLOBAL, "Small Arms
Treaty."

If we're going to defeat the UN Small Arms Treaty gun owners
have to turn the heat up on the U.S. Senate now before it's too
late!

Please return your Firearms
Sovereignty Survey and put yourself squarely on the record AGAINST
ratification of the UN Small Arms Treaty.

And if you can,
please make a generous contribution to the National Association for Gun Rights
of $250, $150, $100 or even just $35 right away!

And every
dollar counts in this fight so even if you can only chip in $10 or
$20, it will make a difference

 

Please take the time and sign the petition.  This might be a good one to donate $10 or $20 too if you can spare it.  Here is the link for the petition:

I don't usually ask people to donate to things, but this looks very sinister.
