From the article:
"Twelve Democratic senators have joined 45 Republicans in a fast growing movement to halt progress on an Obama-backed United Nations effort that could bring international gun control into the United States and slap America's gun owners with severe restrictions."

And a Democrat said this in the article:
"Today, the Senate sends a powerful message to the Obama Administration: an Arms Trade Treaty that does not protect ownership of civilian firearms will fail in the Senate. Our firearm freedoms are not negotiable."

I'm not. When it comes down to it I think most citizens feel the second amendment should stay. How much of it should stay is where things are cloudy.
