--- Quote ---While the United States is typically set apart from other countries when it comes to gun laws, a recent conference with the United Nations has raised major red flags, as the U.S. agreed to enact “full implementation” of an international agreement on gun control that will violate Americans’ constitutional rights by adding their personal information to a global database.

Even if true, it would still require that a law be passed by Congress to make it happen, and that's not likely in the current political climate.  There are some states already who collect that data, but the majority do not.

DenmanShooter:
The UN Small arms trade treaty was signed by the Obama administration in 2013 

Trump has said he would withdraw from the treaty (it was never ratified by Congress so is more of an "agreement")

This is fake news.

GreyGeek:
The "16.4" target goal they write about is this:

--- Quote ---16.4   By 2030, significantly reduce illicit financial and arms flows, strengthen the recovery and return of stolen assets and combat all forms of organized crime.

--- End quote ---
It was taken from here:
https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/content/documents/21252030%20Agenda%20for%20Sustainable%20Development%20web.pdf

12 years from now.  Like most UN stuff it is full of hyperbole and Marxist theology.

the UN could not find their own asses with a flash light and help :laugh:
