Sure, it must be true because you can't provide any evidence of any treaty calling for a civilian gun ban.

These oddballs tend to be quick to insult others, invariably eliciting negatives responses from regular posters

Being skeptical about people's claims about their profession, and even their rhetoric about their experience(s), is always a good idea.

24 Cops and Armored Military Vehicle Sent To Loot A 75 Year Old’s Retirement Fund
By John Vibes on October 27, 2014

Marathon County police are not apologizing for their decision to use an armored military vehicle on a senior citizen because he may have been “argumentative.”

For years, 75-year-old Roger Hoeppner has been at odds with his local government in Marathon County, Wisconsin, over $80,000 dollars worth of fines relating to the use of his property.

Hoeppner has strongly disputed the fines that have been imposed on him, and he has been through multiple lawsuits and appeals with the city, in a fight to use his property the way that he wants to.

Town officials claim that a business which Hoeppner operates on his property is in violation of zoning ordinances.

In 2011, the town confiscated large amounts of personal property from Hoeppner because he refused to pay the fines. Several tractors, pallets and equipment were auctioned off by the government for “pennies on the dollar” according to Hoeppner’s attorney, Ryan Lister.

Next, the town imposed a $500-a-day fine on Hoeppner for refusing to remove certain equipment from his property. Eventually, the bill ran up close to $100,000, and the town came to collect the money with an armored truck and two dozen cops.

The local police department has defended their show of force by saying that Hoeppner was “argumentative” about the fines, although they admit that he never made any threats or indications that he would be violent.

“I’ve been involved in about five standoff situations where, as soon as the MARV showed up, the person gives up, saving time, money and increasing safety. People may not always understand why, but an armored vehicle is almost a necessity now,” Sheriff’s Capt. Greg Bean told reporters.

Hoeppner was arrested without any physical resistance, and was escorted to a bank where he was forced to withdraw $80,000 and hand it over to police.

First of all, even if it were actually true that I couldn't provide evidence of a civilian gun ban treaty, that would not impugn my claim that they had tried and failed to create such a treaty.

But that said, I recall providing you with a link to an African treaty that bans civilians from having many types of guns that civilians should rightly have access to.

Your failure to provide any evidence

A 4th grader would know that the United States isn't in Africa. Leave it to you to try to argue that it is.

UN attempts create a civilian gun ban treaty.

I've shown numerous statistical data from relevant experts, including various domestics organizations and the UN. It's a reasonable conclusion, in the face of that overwhelming data, that the US has a problem with police brutality, particularly when it comes to minorities. But that's the strongest claim I've made, ie, that there's a problem that just about everybody who's paying attention recognizes.

Looks like the military policy of "overwhelming force" has come to Small Town, USA

...There is no doubt we do know an abnormally eccentric poster when we see one, beyond a shadow of a doubt; the peculiar poster's unprofessional behavior stand out. These oddballs tend to be quick to insult others, invariably eliciting negatives responses from regular posters with most people scrambling to place them on ignore.
