I’m sorry your mother had to go through those outrageous hassles and legal fees.

On the Frequest Flyer web site, www.flyertalk.com there were a number of “threads” over the years about this stupid “No Fly List.” Some years back on “60 Minutes,” they had a story of how people with common Anglo-Saxon names wind up on the “No Fly List.” David Nelson. Jack Baldwin, Alexandra Hayes, etc. all got hassled at the airport because someone with the same name was on the “list.” I bet NONE of the actual people who were “wanted” were a threat to civil aviation.

Some of the people with the same name appeared on “60 Minutes” years ago and spoke of their hassles.

“Once again, we owe a big hearty “Thank you!” to all the F***ing Republican bastards that voted to confirm this vile witch to that office.”


Ditto to those who didn’t go to the polls in 2012. No, Romney was far from my favorite candidate (actually, much closer to my LEAST favorite), but he would not be doing this to us. I fear that many people who should show up in November won’t, because of some perceived insult, or because Trump isn’t perfect (as if ANYONE is), and thereby we’ll end up with Hillary...and if that happens, kiss your guns and the rest of your rights good bye.

100% nefarious intentions.

This is the same crew who've imported more than 500 Syrian refugees JUST THIS WEEK ALONE, IN THE WAKE OF THE ORLANDO ATTACK JUST FOUR DAYS AGO.

No president would do this unless he had EVIL intentions for the America.

if a Republican-controlled Congress cannot stop this, we are truly screwed

The GOP is a joke. Its not a political party; its just a club that is only interested in being elected to comfy jobs. We are already screwed.

The fact that you are defending that scum bag Romney in any way tells me that you have no idea about what you are saying. How was Romney different from Obama? How exactly? They both appointed liberal Constitution hating judges and they both forced health care on their constituents. Now, how about gun control. Actually, Romney beats Obama here because Romney signed gun control legislation as governor. Obama just continues to salivate over his chance. So your boy Romney is an even bigger hunk of shit than Obama and you jump up on your soap box to chastise those who could not, indeed would not, vote for an asshat who has an even worse track record than Obama? Shut up and educate yourself first.

I could see a no-fly list of foreigners who shouldn’t be allowed to enter the country. Others might be foreign nationals in the U.S. who should be deported. “U.S. Persons” with Constitutional rights should not arbitrarily be put on some secret list.

Not content with hiring terrorists as security guards with affirmative action, Obama doubles down on his ethnic cleansing Mugabe Rwanda agenda, getting to pick through the DHs who can get guns and who cannot, redistributed. Just like the IRS picked and chose who was to be a Sorros like 501c.

So thanks to campaing finance reform and this illegal grab on executive picking, we are getting closer to civil war. Obama/Lynch should be impeached

The lroblem is Obama picks the foreigners or “refugees”. He should not have the right to redistribute guns according to his political affiliations

Patriots and Boy Scouts will be on the no-fly list.

The Obama Brotherhood and other America hating muslims will not.

Why are people on 'no fly' lists or terror watch lists allowed to live in our neighborhoods?

They have to live near you. The elite in DC don't want them near them or their children.

Let’s see now...the Constitution says we have a right to bear arms...it SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.

The Constitution does NOT say we have a right to ride on airplanes.

Cloaking a Constitutional, guaranteed, right inside of a civil Priveledge that can be revoked by law, is unconstitutional. I’m no lawyer, but it seems watching a few episodes of “Perry Mason” would teach that.

This would never make it through an honest Supreme Court.

I want to see a law passed by Congress that will make it mandatory for any person working for the federal government in ANY capacity to wear an “A” (for administration) or designate “AH” (Adam Henry), on their clothing. We could even reserve the “AH” for the people like Lynch and Johnson. This would give US an “additional tool” to identify those who are willing to carry out orders detrimental to this country! They don’t care what they do as long as it looks like they’re actually accomplishing something! No matter how stupid/ridiculous!

If they know those who are suspected terrorists THEN for goodness sake, do something about it! Refuse them permission to fly!!! How absurd. How about if they just want to leave the country? HA! They wouldn’t want to take action against a “suspected terrorist” without due process but they sure won’t mind taking action against legal gun owners without due process. In the meantime, demonizing them will suit their plans.

I hope you all called your senators today. We were called by the NRA this afternoon with a plea to call ours. I couldn’t imagine GA senators voting anything but NO on gun legislation but who knows - stranger things have happened. I called and was able to leave a message for both of ours.

“”The amendment gives the Justice Department an important additional tool to prevent the sale of guns to suspected terrorists by licensed firearms dealers while ensuring protection of the department’s operational and investigative sensitivities,” department spokesman Dena Iverson said in a statement.””
