Senate Votes To Block U.S. From Joining UN Arms Treaty

Senate Votes To Block U.S. From Joining UN Arms Treaty, however the actual title of this report should be "some ass clown Senator's actual vote YES on the U.N. Arms Treaty"

In the last batch of amendment votes to the budget, the Senate voted on several foreign policy proposals.

Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) introduced an amendment that would prevent the United States from entering into the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty in order to uphold the Second Amendment. His amendment passed on a 53-46 vote.

Republicans have been critical of President Obama’s decision to consider the treaty, although Obama has said he would not vote for anything that would violate the Second Amendment.  It is very troubling that 46 Senators voted for this treaty which would, in effect, supercede the second amendment.
