Sounds like we need to get the emails to senators going again.  I'd be surprised if even Nelson would go along with this one.

The US and Canada are a couple of the very few that have not entered into this treaty:

This treaty is a lot of bull.  The good news is, we'll ignore it like we do with most of our treaties.  Just ask an American Indian.

Anyone else smell the smoke? If this passes we are going to be in a world of hurt. There are far too many people that won't stand for this. Scary.

Sorry Dan, I was a member of the forum but did more lurking in the reloading/shooting area.  Still wasn't fully aware of what was going on in politics around me. Poor situational awareness.
