The UN is a foreign gov't and laws like this do make it easier for them to injure our country.
The United Nations is a stateless quasi-NGO. It has no organic military force of its own. It depends on member nations to supply military and other humanitarian support. IMHO, the Girl Scouts are far more formidable than the U.N.
The charge of treason is still a possibility because it is defined as an act that helps a foreign gov't overthrow, make war on, or injure the citizen's country.
Treason is defined in Section 3, Para. 3, of the U.S. Constitution as;
"Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court. The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted."
The courts have ruled that "Levying war", must include the raising of an armed force that actually takes to the field for the purpose of overthrowing the government of the United States, or, "Adhering to their enemies", i.e., giving any aid to an enemy of the United States during a time of war.
A state representative who voted for the SAFE Act is definitely not committing treason.
And he can still be jailed as the charge would be treason. Then lock up the rest of his fellow voters and the Gov on the same charges.
Lock up voters & the Governor of New York? WTF? What banana republic are you from? That's what they do in places like Venezuela. To advocate ARRESTING the voters (assuming you could identify them) who elected the representatives that voted for this bill is WAAAY off base.
...not be charged with treason, though the rest of government that did impose such an Intolerable Act certainly could be, and I really like how you think in that regard!
You need to re-think your legal reasoning...its not TREASON. Look, I DESPISE the SAFE act and want to see it repealed. The way to do that is by supporting the firearms organizations that are challenging it in court, and helping my state representatives that are working to overturn it. We've had a partial victory, the over-turning of the 7 round mag limit. Hopefully, we can get rid of all of it. That's how to do it.
