In the last decade, the number of high school shooting sports has skyrocketed. Colleges have also picked up more shooting teams. I personally do not know what started the interest but the interest is there and in danger of being pulled. Once again, I draw your attention to the United Nations' Arms Trade Treaty. While the treaty is really geared toward military-type weapons, there is enough leeway in the proposition to get rid of hunting arms as well. All firearms have a component of being used in military action, even .22 cal rifles and shotguns. Then, we have to consider Olympic shooting sports. Without high school and college shooting teams there will no one to compete in the biathlon. Indeed, the event will be lost.
It is important that we contact our representatives and express concern over the Arms Trade Treaty. The Arms Trade Treaty will interfere with the sovereignty of the United States. Our nation was founded to shrug off the opressive rule of a foreign government. Let's not let that go without a fight!
