Trump affirms backing gun ban for those on terror watch list
Washington Examiner ^ | June 18, 2016 | John Siciliano

Posted on 06/18/2016 8:56:11 PM PDT by ConservativeTeen

Donald Trump reaffirmed his stance on restricting individuals on the terror watch list from being able to purchase firearms, despite Republican objections.

"We have to make sure that people that are terrorists or have even an inclination toward terrorism cannot buy weapons, guns," Trump told ABC's White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl in an interview that will air Sunday on "This Week."

Trump supporters are conservative, in deed. They didn't need to hear the "Consistent Conservative" mantra, ad infinitum.
Now, as a Trump supporter, it doesn't make me warm and fuzzy. I can consider it as a first marker for some negotiation but I'd rather not.

"all that matters is that you supported Cruz, so your arguement, no matter how factual, is invalid."

I think I'm beginning to understand.....If you support Senator Cruz, truth is irrelevant.

7. you refer to undocumented immigrants as illegals

re: Regarding the so-called 'satanic gesture'

The picture posted by FReeper mac_truck in his post #280 is NOT at all 'satanic', the fact is, that is the accepted sign language gesture for "I LOVE YOU", it is used every day by millions of people to convey their love, affection and caring for others who cannot understand spoken speech.

THAT applies to the gesture of little finger up, index finger up, thumb extended to the side. Now as for the gesture where the thumb is NOT extended, but only the little and index fingers are UP, that too is NOT satanic, despite the efforts of some to suggest it is, or to employ it in that capacity, THAT variation stands for 'Hook 'Em Horns!', a greeting and part of a cheer used at the University of Texas at Austin.

So forget this nonsense about 'satanic symbols', it isn't about the symbol and how it is perceived, it is about the content of the person's soul and what is inside them.

Now c'mon people we've got a war to win here (see my tagline).

That’s a ridiculous comment.

It was not an ad hominem. It was not pro Cruz.

It was purely policy oriented.

Get over it. Trump’s the man, but he’s not God.

Cruz is back in Texas and is no threat to Trump at all.

Why is a US citizen even on the No Fly list in the first place? Shouldn’t this be for terrorists, illegal aliens, and anyone we do not want coming to American? Americans? Charge them with a crime if there is a crime to address.

I’m guessing you never read the short story. In it, Anderton has read the three reports.. The initial report of the murder of Kaplan, the second report where he runs and Kaplan uses the false prediction to overthrow the government and institute martial law, and the third where he kills Kaplan to prevent that from happening.

The story was much less a warning and more about choosing the lesser of two evils. Anderton decided that killing a man and himself and his family being exiled off planet was better than Kaplan’s authoritarian future.

The better connection is the secret enemies lists of Hoover. This is just a new variation on a very old system, and one I’m sure the Dixie Mafia will judiciously use should Bill Clinton get a third term as president.

I just now working through the thread. I hadn’t seen your comment re Jesse James when I posted.

Can anyone explain why the smears claiming that Trump is “down with a Satanist,” have not been deleted?

I think that you are on the wrong forum. Since you support Hillary Clinton, and the Democrat Party, you need to to Democrat underground.com

Seems to me the state can’t even get profiling and border security right, which seem pretty common sense to me. Lets see them act like they really care about the safety of citizens for a while before we give them the benefit of the doubt to use secret lists to restrict guns, in my opinion.

Trump should know this, it’s not that hard.

‘Does it bother you Ted Cruz ostentatiously claims to be a pious Christian for political gain, made millions and self admittedly gave nothing to charity?’

It’s not the fact that Cruz admitted to giving zero to his home church; It’s the fact that he lied about why he gave zero. That is the biggest issue.

That purge has largely already happened.

Some of us took the initiative to for the most part purge our self’s from FR.

Notice you never got a reply to your irrefutable argument? Not even a childish “eat Mitt” or the like?

‘I missed how this became a birther thread’

I’d run from that topic too, if I had supported a candidate that ***claimed*** to be a NBC of the US, only to ***learn*** at age 44 that he was actually a NBC of Canada.

The bill in question is the Cornyn Bill, which places everybody on the “no-fly” list on the “no-buy” list.

The NRA opposes the bill. As does the FBI.


“Both failed in December and are likely to fail again, senators and aides said.”

You are getting your panties in a bunch only to attack Trump. It’s all campaign hot air. Trump is simply trying to triangulate the issue and get it off the table.

Ted Cruz is not the nominee.


Trump is not the nom either until the convention. You deluded Cruzlims just can’t help campaigning for Butcher of Benghazi. How principled and conservative of you.

That and the fact that Ted Cruz fraudulently made his piousness and Christianity a central plank of his campaign.
