   Does anyone know any details on this treaty that Hillary may sign with the U.N. in a week or so? From what little I have read, it sounds like a backdoor way for gun control to become a reality by going around the Constitution. When I heard that Hitler II from Iran was involved by way of the U.N. it made me more concerned. I know it will never be ratified by the full house, can Hillary do us some damage by signing this. I am sure you gun owners are more up to date on this. My wife and I may have to buy ours this weekend!

   I was still hearing things yesterday on the way home from work so I don't know how accurate the Snopes check is. I don't want to sound like a conspiracy nut but I do know that George Soros is financially involved with Snopes which makes me wonder how un-biased it always is.

   You do sound like a conspiracy nut - stop and think about what you are saying. Who would enforce this international treaty that would supercede the constitution and come to my house and take my gun? The French? What are you talking about?

   Even worse - an Eric Holder-led DOJ.

   Okay, let's forget Snopes.
   
   Let's try Factcheck.

   And this is about the "international" sales and transfer of weapons. Unless you're getting your guns and ammo from Iran, I don't think this affects us.
   
   Pete, Holder doesn't "confiscate" arms, he "sells" them!
   
   You know, the nightly news "is" getting pretty boring. So....no treaty.....a couple of million RPGs nicely gift wrapped to say.....a cluster of neighboring countries far, far way (with no Americans within 2,000 miles).....and we could watch an incredible BoomFest on TV each night. I'm thinking maybe South America. It would be contained to that continent since there's no road through the Darien Gap.
   
   Does that sound completely insane? You betcha!
   
   By the way, if anyone finds their local Walmart low on 9mm ammo, give me a call. My brother-in-law is running out of barn room on his farm. He could either restock every Walmart within 200 miles of your location, of maybe even sell direct. He has his own forklift.

   I knew you guys would be collectively wise enough to have the answers on this. After all, we nearly solve all the problems of the world daily on this forum. I was starting to get afraid that I was going to need to go through the cartels to get weapons for protection since our government has no clue where those went!

   Sandy, this is likely the quote you are thinking of:
   
   "Snopes receives funding from an undisclosed source. The source is undisclosed because Snopes refuses to disclose that source. The Democratic Alliance, a funding channel for uber-Leftist (Marxist) Billionaires (George Soros etc.), direct funds to an "Internet Propaganda Arm" pushing these views. The Democratic Alliance has been reported to instruct Fundees to not disclose their funding source."
   
   Here is the truth of the matter:
