Stripped of gun rights without any trial.
bump!
The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
I would sooner arm those on “the terror watch list” than I ever would the lowlife dems.
Terror wacth list is not a conviction so you can not restrict their rights.
It’s funny. Libs are always screaming about the rights of the accused. What about the rights of those who have not have even been accused? It’s a proven and know fact that the terrorist watch list is a joke. Are the Tyranical Left saying that our Constitutionaly protected rights are subject to prior restraint?
Does that include Constitutional terrorists? I’d have thought the number to have been much higher.
“Current federal law does not prohibit people on the terrorist watch lists from purchasing guns unless there is a prohibiting factor, such as being a fugitive, a felon, renouncing U.S. citizenship or suffering mental impairment. Sen. Lautenberg has introduced legislation that would close this loophole and prevent known or suspected terrorists from purchasing firearms.”
That couldn’t possibly be abused to disarm patriotic Americans who disagree with the administration. No way. /sarc
So? You can be on the list with no trial, no indictment, no court order, no reasonable cause. Rights don’t just disappear because the government arbitrarily put you on some list.
Big deal. Esp. considering that apparently you can get on ‘the list’ for just having the wrong name.
IF there isn’t enough evidence to arrest them, then there isn’t enough evidence to keep them from buying a gun.
Perhaps there's just a problem with the list. FRANK
The loophole here is that A-holes like Lautenberg are permitted to know that intelligence lists even exist. The last thing America needs is for one’s inclusion on a “secret government list” to be grounds to restrict their rights. If there is actionable intelligence, then it should be acted on. However, it appears that they simply want to regulate away the rights of anyone they don’t agree with. The odor is overwhelming and the timidity of the GOP is deafening.
more propaganda intended to support a system where your name will get electronically flashed to Big Sis’ desk whenever you go to buy a gun. (especially true when THEY control who is on the Terror Watch List)
Must have had phony Hawaiian birth certificates.
It certainly “defies common sense” (and legal sense, too ), the Senator holds office at all......Since he got put on the ballot in contravention of NJ election law.....
Recall the Senator was the author of the Lautenberg Law which retroactively upgraded old misdemeanor convictions to felonies with disasterous impact upon affected individuals numbering in the thousands ! Now he’s planning on disenfranchising unknown thousands more (no one knows who/how many are on “secret government list(s)”), sans any adjudication. But, the Senator’s paranoia consistently runs that way .... >PS
How many were through the ATF’s Gunwalker program?

247 On U.S. Terror Watch List Bought Guns In 2010......yet Brian Aitken was rotting in prison for seven years before his sentence was commuted.
If any thing shows the incredible perversity and degradation of the MSM, this is it. Spend time, ink and money on a story hyping the horror of people legitimately exercising their Constitutional rights, and ignore the story where a whole U.S. Government agency aided thousands of guns to be illegally taken across the border of Mexico, hoping that they would be used in crimes.
Insanity, thy name is MSM. Start with false assumptions, and it is very difficult to reach correct conclusions.
...or this guy.
