I've posted or linked to a Supreme Court decision about this three times in the last week...
Found it.
When the two relate to the same subject, the courts will always endeavor to construe them so as to give effect to both...
So, it is not hard to imagine that such a UN treaty could be signed and put into law and co-exist right along side the 2nd amendment, which the case you sited above shows the courts will endeavor to do.
There obviously would be no more "contradiction" in the two (US Constitution/UN treaty) than there is a "contradiction" in any gun control law currently.
Thanks for the information and your patience.
