Hillary: People Under FBI Investigation Should Lose Constitutional Rights
The Federalist ^ | 6/1/3/2016 | David Harsanyi

Posted on 06/13/2016 5:31:52 PM PDT by GilGil

If something horrifying happens, we should ignore due process and deny Americans their rights. This was basically the argument many conservatives (and Democrats) made post-9/11 to help pass the Patriot Act, and it’s exactly the argument most liberals are making when they push gun bans to people on terror watch lists.

“If the FBI is watching you for suspected terrorist links,” Hillary Clinton said today in her supposedly apolitical speech, “you shouldn’t be able to just go buy a gun.”

If we’re going to do this, let’s be consistent.

If the FBI is conducting a criminal investigation of your suspected illegal use of a home email server to transmit classified intelligence, you shouldn’t be allowed to just go and run for president.

The perp wasn’t under FBI investigation. His file was closed in 2014.

Another non sequitor by Hillary.

Doesn’t the smartest woman in the world know that any under FBI investigation is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law? And yet she wants to deprive people who are innocent in the eyes of the law from their Constitutional rights before, if ever, being convicted. Sheesh!

Stupid is not a good enough word for Hillary.
I am deciding whether “nincompoop” is appropriate.

I believe the 5th Amendment has a thing or two to say about that.....

(Hint) "...nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law..."

The Fifth Amendment Due Process is so fundamental to the Constitution and to our American experience, I am appalled at her ignorance. This woman went to law school?? I think not. Couldn't have. This is exactly what she tried to pull with Nixon in Watergate—denying Nixon his Constitutional right to counsel. She got fired for trying to pull that and then lying about it.

Secret Agent Man:

Yes she is. The constitution also defines the rights of a person to be naturalized. Take that away, no naturalized, no presidential campaign. Gee whiz........

Someone needs like a hypocrimeter or sarcastascanner or something.

Bill Clinton felt ‘terrorists’ were conservative Americans who didn’t agree with him. During his time in office WE woudl have been the ones the FBI was looking at.

That’s the reason Obama and Hillary want to keep the term ‘extremist’.. because they want in include political opponents.

Secret Agent Man,

Ever notice that leaders, even self-considered ones, always surround themselves with people they can control in some manner. And as she is the media proclaimed smartest woman in the world, that is obviously her strong(?) point. Kinda makes you wonder if the combined campaign force can raise the IQ in their war room any higher than room temp? And judging by her voting base, most only speak mexican or chinese. Sop english is a second language to them. Cut them some slack.
