Trump affirms backing gun ban for those on terror watch list

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."

Given a chance, I suspect the NSA will see every Freeper gets put on the list...

...

Absolutely, or once the crooked politicians see that a list can be used to nullify the Constitution, they’ll come up with more lists.

You never got over your first 2016 primary love, did you, nick? LOL! :)

Well, here we are, 255 replies and over 6 hours later with no reply so I guess he/she couldn't deny the plain words from Trump.

Well, here we are, 120 replies and over 9 hours later with no reply from ConservativeTeen about who he's voting for, so I guess he couldn't deny his plain love for Hillary.

Et tu, T-Bird45?

You're wrong.

The Usual Suspects are bubbling up on this thread like brown trout from a plugged septic system.

[kiryandil]

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

Looks like the recent Cleveland machinations are stirring up hopes in the bitter Texan clingers... LOL! :)

You’re too late. We’re on to the games of selfish and unpatriotic Loser Cruzers. You and your candidate stand with violent communists while your fellow FReepers are physically assaulted and have their Constitutional rights violated. That just proves once again that the Cruz cult was never about the Constitution, principle or conservatism.

Man! Was there a full ted moon out last night?

Dumped angry fat chicks?

[Mase]

Yup. Kinda feelin’ left out.....

It doesn’t matter. He represents “nationalism” and “American First!” He could endorse Marxism-Leninism and some conservatives would cheer him. Hey . . . at least they’d be “American” communists!

[Turbo Pig]

You illustrate my point, exactly. Thank you.

[T-Bird45]

And yet you dance around the obvious again, deflecting all the way. How about a simple admission that Trump is not the perfect and much-ballyhooed candidate of recent months on FR and does have feet of clay? Or is that a mouth of clay?

There's a lot to like about him. Like many, I especially admire his approach to handling the media and non-PC pronouncements that get the media in such an uproar. He plays them very well.

That said, I've seen no evidence that Trump has given great thought to this issue and the goals of his opposition. He also gives evidence of squandering the NRA endorsement without giving any thought to that, either.

Have no fear, kiryandil, Trump will get my vote in November. And your go-to accusation about anybody having doubts about Trump's tactics being a Hillary voter is a total non sequitur and non-starter, IMO.

[kiryandil]

This thread smoked a lot of the old cruzers out of the woodwork.

It has NOTHING to do with the posted article, and EVERYTHING to do with getting a sucker-punch in on Trump. :)

Since truth is irrelevant to you, what matters?

Bad idea.

Trump: “...or have even an inclination toward terrorism...”

I find it interesting that after reading the first 80-90 comments in here, no one has pointed out the most insidious part of Trump’s comment. The phrase “even an inclination” rises to the level of thought crime.

This is how you get to neighbors reporting on neighbors, and kids reporting on parents. Worse, this is how you get to people lying about you and suddenly your rights are demolished.

Those of us who’ve been against Trump from the beginning, and still are, are not in the least bit surprised by his latest rambling, however. Not in the least.

For those of you who have been sucked in, enjoy your rationalizing efforts, but get used to having to do it regularly between now and November (or July).

Comey is head of FBI,not CIA.

[FreeReign]

If due process is added then it should be doable.

We already have due process in an existing system. See the US Constitution and the US justice system.

[Undecided 2012]

I’m not surprised at all. I knew he was hard left. I hope Trump wins so I can watch those here on FR flip all over the place with his leftist positions. GO TRUMP

I support putting all criminal terrorist Muslims on a watch list and getting them stripped of all their rights. I also support making terrorist nations get banned from entering this country. No more rights to guns or anything else. I don’t support the banning of guns or gun control. I support stopping terrorism.
