Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin said on MSNBCs Morning Joe that the right to due process, guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment of the US Constitution, had made it difficult to pass gun-control legislation denying those on the FBIs terror watch list the ability to purchase a firearm.
The firewall we have right now is due process, the West Virginia senator said. Its all due process.
In the aftermath of the Orlando terror attack, which claimed the lives of 49 people, Democrats have renewed calls for legislation aimed at blocking individuals on the terror watch list from being able to buy a gun. Republicans have argued against such legislation, contending it would be wrong to strip citizens of their Second Amendment right without being convicted of a crime.
Manchin noted that the FBI did everything they were supposed to do, but had no way of blocking the Orlando attacker from purchasing a firearm. snip
He added: But due process is whats killing us right now.

This DemonRAT lied when he said he “will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” Well, if he is too lazy to live by his oath, he should step down and let someone more willing.

But due process is whats killing us right now.

No, idiot, it’s the refusal of those in power to acknowledge that Islam has been at war with everyone else on the planet since 622 A.D.
That damned Constitution is all that is standing in the way of liberal totalitarian utopia.
Plus privately owned firearms.
Due process is the bedrock of the labor movement and job security for members of our engorged bureaucracy. I wonder if any are making the connection.
Congress is what’s killing this nation. The vast majority should be hanged in public for the destruction they’ve caused.
We need term limits.. ONE and DONE and they should convene once or twice a year or during a time of war as needed.
Next is the Presidency.. a billion dollars + to get elected in itself is a crime.
Refusing to fight an international war has its consequences. Enemy attacks cannot all be stopped by way of good police work alone. Terrorists (assassins) are sneaky and suicidal. That’s what they do. Real warfare toward the goal of destroying the enemy’s will to fight in his own land is not an appealing way, but it’s the only way.
Manchin’s peers in both political parties agree with him in more ways than one.

Since Manchin doesn’t like due process, let’s move directly to his hanging.
In other words, he supports passage of the bill.
I'm disappointed...but why am I not surprised?
Actually if you pull a play out the Islam Handbook and just give him his way just this time ... a “One Time Mulligan” we could piss in his grave tomorrow Guilt Free.
This is what it’s really about.
“Due process” is in the way of the tyrannical dictatorship liberals have been craving for.
Once they get it, the trains will start to move.
Wrong again dimocrat. Muslim murderers are what is killing us. And the first most evil party in American history are bringing them into the country as fast as they can and are impeding all efforts to stop them.
“due process” as a ‘firewall’ to action?
BS. Typical Libtard BS. Proof that liberalism is a mental disease.
>>Yeah, that effing Constitution needs to be repealed. /s
“just a piece of paper”.
How did that happen?
Ike tried to give us a clue...
