One of the most disgraceful screeds that I've seen from the idiot MSM presstitutes in a long time!

They would never abuse a law to deny gun owners access to weapons.
Sorta like they’d never use a law designed to restrict importing foreign machine guns to block the importation of Garands...

the fact is we have only a handful of Republican co-sponsors.”
The question is why are there ANY republican co-sponsors?
Who are they?

So there is nothing crazy about thousands of terror suspects running around, only that they’re able to buy guns?

France has strict gun laws and yet these ISIS nuts seem to have no problem getting their guns.
Guess facts do not matter when it comes to educating people or doing hit pieces.

You can tell when the premise of a screed is dishonest. It defines the “potential impact” of some “loophole” without ever defining the actual loophole up-front, in order to paint idiot readers into an emotional corner.

Lucky for us the refusegees have been thoroughly checked so none of them will be terrorists. They will not need guns. They can peacefully study their holy documents in peace and quiet of their mosque./s
I wonder how many will be out to get Obama?

The law essentially gives the Attorney General the authority to bar anyone he/she claims to believes might be involved in terrorism from owning guns and the authority to keep such decisions secret.
It would subject the 2nd Amendment rights of every law abiding American to the whim of the AG while not preventing a single terrorist from obtaining guns.
To: cripplecreek
cripplecreek, you are precisely correct.
They show virtually no concern about the THOUSANDS OF TERRORIST SUSPECTS here domestically, yet wish to sensationalize on firearms.
This mainstream media coverage is even more low-class than their typical low-class behavior.

Well, there is that whole Constitutionally protected right thing. This law would effectively usurp that. It would allow the government to take away that right based on some nameless / faceless flunky's analysis and dropping your name onto a list. A list that by the way you can't see. A list that you don't know how to get on (or more importantly stay off of). A list that the procedure for getting off of if placed on there in error is both ill-defined but no-doubt time consuming and expensive.
Gee, and they wonder why we oppose this law? Secret lists, stripping rights away... That is the stuff of the Stasi and KGB, not America.

Agitprop 101.
Every one of the people described here had to pass a federal FBI NICS check.
So if any "blame" is to be laid, it is at the feet of that agency, and, by extension, the federal government.
I guess they don't mention that, huh?
It's also necessary to point out that these 'terror supsects' are running around inside our country because that selfsame federal government refuses to rein them in, and in many cases brought them here.
So many "inconvenient truths"...

Since jihadists are waved through, and the TSA roughs up nuns and crippled children in wheelchairs, the no-fly list is useless anyway, except as a way of oppressing US citizens.
