A Star Chamber proceeding to strip a basic Constitutional right is a non-starter.
He also said that those who are the list wrongly need to be removed from the list.
If terror suspects have any constitutional rights, then they have the right to a gun or many guns or high caliber guns. Either they have ALL constitutional rights or they don’t. Period!
I’m curious if the Southern Poverty Law Center can add names to the No Fly List.
He DID make a point of insisting people have a way of addressing being on the list improperly, a roundabout way of saying “due process”.
Pick battles carefully. This isn’t one that helps win the election war.
Trump did piss poor on gun control. he could have mentioned she is against Stop and frisk yet she is for universal background checks and virtual stop and frisk no fly lists for gun purchases?
Also could have mentioned she is targetting blacks for gun control cuz she has the same KKK racist legacy.
On Chicago violence he could have mentioned gun control being ineffective and cities that do well with no gun control, even if accross the border from Ciudad.
I think he was unprepared on the issue. What the hell did the NrA tell him? This is fross incompetence.
whatever.
1. there are numerous reports that there’s no good way to get OFF that list (in case you’re put on it by mistake, such as Senator Kennedy and several more well-known people were)
2. if someone’s a terrorist, he should be tried and executed (or at least returned to Krapistan) and not just put on lists
No! This tells them they are on the list and complicates law enforcement’s job. If they are on the list take the appropriate action. Either deport, charge or put under surveillance until you can charge them.
He booted this answer.
There is no due process for anyone on the list incorrectly.
He did say something about helping people get off the list, but I am still against denying citizens rights without due process.
>>He should have at least added “due process”.<<
Worth repeating.
DUE PROCESS DONALD!
Furthermore, wanna win over black males from 18 to 55?
Knock it off with “Stop & Frisk”. It is blatantly unconstitutional w/o probable cause.
[Trump’s knees buckling? He should have at least added “due process”. ]
He mentioned the need for a process to be able to get taken off if on mistakenly toward the end of the exchange, but go drowned out in talking or cheering.
He did.
Didn't want to sound lax on security but he did mention those who were wrongly put on the lists getting assistance to be removed from them.
He did say that he’d be in favor of due process for those who are on the list who should not be.
I want to remind Trump that we don’t take constitutional rights away with one little guy wearing a visor in a back room and putting names on a list!! That is absurd denial of due process.However ,I am smart enough to realize that if he says that people on lists cannot be deprived on constitutional right or the Media will say “ Trump supports terrorists on no fly lists to have guns!!” He played defense well here like the foreign born obama issue ( which he is foreign born as hell) . But Trump has bigger fish to fry so as long as he realizes that the List” crap is patently unconstitutional denial of due process — I’m. fine with the game.
Notice that he *did* add in something about making sure people on the list really belong there, and making it easier for those who shouldn’t to get off of it.
Actually, they are wrong.
Trump supported the NRA position that those on terror watch list shouldn’t have guns, but that citizens must have easy access to correcting mistakes on the watch list.
The ability to easily correct mistakes is the issue.
Not giving guns to suspected terrorists seems like a no-brainer, and the NRA agrees...provided you have the corrections issue fixed.
My rights are not negotiable.
The already in place Background check should catch that ,but you have to stop giving Muslims a Free Pass
He made “due process-like” noises but the problem is that a secret list of suspects can never be revealed without compromising sources and methods.
That’s why any terror watch list should only be used for investigative purposes, not for population control measures like preventing us from flying or buying guns.
A secret list that must remain secret is fundamentally incompatible with due process and it’s a problem that can’t be fixed.
