Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott on the UN Arms Treaty

 
Not wasting any time, our state's Attorney General vowed to defeat the UN global arms treaty as soon as the news was announced and heralded by our pResident.Someone needs to remind Obama and the Dems that we are STILL a sovereign nation with a Constitution guaranteeing our rights. We don't need the UN's input.
 
Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott on Tuesday vowed to use every means necessary to fight the “dangerous” United Nations global arms treaty that was overwhelmingly approved by the General Assembly on Tuesday.
 
Speaking to a group of reporters on a conference call, Abbott warned that the arms treaty “raises a red warning flag to anyone concerned about the liberties guaranteed to all Americans under the United States Constitution.”
 
 
One of my favorite lines from the letter he sent Obama:
 
He went on: “We cannot accept a president or the possibility of a Senate that are going to seize our constitutional guarantees to international authorities… We fought and we won a war to protect us from rulers in a distant land trying to limit our rights. We have circled back now to a point where it seems like our federal government is trying to cede our authority away.”

It seems the only way out of this mess will be alone or with a number of other like minded states sound familiar

All too familiar. Am I selfish in wanting to secede alone?

No but we sure could use them even Oklahoma

He got it right, except for "seems" and "trying."
