Response I received from Dianne Feinstein, as sent (if you would like me to forward this to you, send me a message with your email address ... interesting how they altered the original message):

Thank you for writing to express your opposition to the ratification of the Inter-American Convention Against Illicit Manufacturing of and Trafficking in Firearms, Ammunition, Explosives, and Other Related Materials (CIFTA). I appreciate hearing from you on this topic and welcome the opportunity to respond.

While I understand your concerns about the ratification of CIFTA, I strongly believe that the U.S. should act promptly to take up and ratify this convention. For many years, I have been concerned about the proliferation of firearms worldwide. From Afghanistan to Iraq, Bosnia, Rwanda, and Haiti, the proliferation of firearms and light other weapons undermines peace, stability, economic growth, and harms U.S. national security interests.

Specifically, the illicit trafficking of firearms from the U.S. has helped to exacerbate recent violence amid drug cartels in Mexico. Recent cCongressional testimony provided by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms & Explosives (ATF) revealed that approximately 90 percent of traced weaponsconfiscated firearms used by cartels come from thewere traced to the U.S. It is estimated that, with 2,000 guns per day crossing the border from the U.S. into Mexico. Further, 6,000 people were killed in Mexico last year due to drug-related violence, with another 1,000 people killed in January 2009 alone. I believe that the ratification of CIFTA will help to combat the threat of narcotics trafficking and illegal arms transfers in Mexico and Central America, and provide an unequivocal statement that the U.S. is serious about stemming the tide of weapons flowing into the region.

Again, thank you for writing. While we do not necessarily agree on this particular issue, your views are important to me, and I hope that you will continue to write on matters of importance to you. Should you have any further comments or questions, please feel free to contact my Washington, D.C. office at (202) 224-3841.

Sincerely yours,

Dianne Feinstein
United States Senator

  • Did you read Article Three of the treaty? The part about "nonintervention in the domestic affairs of other states?" Guess that wouldn't fit in with your hysteria over firearms. I love my weapons. Americans have silencers, machine guns, and as many firearms as they can buy. The Second Amendment is about the Federal government not taking the militias away from the people. Congress gave the militia to the Army and no one made a peep. Who wants to muster for freedom when they can whine?

  • good luck peal them from our dead hands lol never happen cause it is illegal. If it does have fun civil war 2.

  • Blam this on Eric Holder. Take away your gun rights get ready

    for being a slave,Yeap worst then now.

  • Geez, imagine that. First HIS Justice Department furnished thousands of illegal guns to the Mexican drug cartels via Fast and Furious and now he wants to use that to shove more gun control down our throats. What a corrupt prick.

  • so they make an "treaty" to register all of your guns...so that way they now can take our guns...and then they wanna pass that law that says they can lock anybody up for ever as long as they claim "he's/she's suspected of terrorism" ....hmmm...OH AND BTW....osama bin laden enjoyed the holidays at the white house in case anybody was wondering...

  • I hate to tell you it would be a civil war there are millions of people that would rather die than ive under the controll of the goverment and not have any meens to protect themselfs..They need to cap the millions of people that make it across the border with are weapons and not being searched!!!FUCK OBMA

  • If they disarm this country the crime would spike. Criminals would know that hard working, law abiding people would be helpless to defend themselves. When the world disarm........I will!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • fucking hell so many people are dumb. Obama go shove your head up your ass, if it can get up there any further and get the fuck out of government.

  • Our Founding Fathers were far wiser than our elected SERVANTS:

    "Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."

    - Thomas Jefferson (the far left radical of that time)
