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."

I’d prefer we deport every Muslim in the country over denying a single American gun rights.

If Trump lives to be 150 years old, and wins two Presidential races, he'll still be forgotten long after James Madison is still remembered.

Never was, Never will be a #NeverTrumper. Nor a Mitt supporter. But you keep on breaking your wind all over the forum. Everybody knows what sort of person you are.

Keep fighting the primary and it just reminds everyone why Ted Cruz lost.

Whether it is a gotcha question or not is of no matter. A person who stands on their conviction on 2A takes the heat and fights back. Anyone who has the most basic of constitutional precepts understands this. I’m starting to think we are about to receive another OTJT (on the job training). It hasn’t worked thus far. We don’t need another and furthermore I’m quite frankly tired of hearing from his surrogates translate for me “what Trump really said was”
He is trading very thinly

I don’t care what they agree with, and do not tell me what I am, and what I am not.

If abortion is illegal, then women who have abortions are committing a crime.

If abortion is murder, then women who have abortions are accomplices to murder.

If a man convinces a woman to have an abortion, and that abortion is illegal or is murder, than that man is an accomplice to a crime and/ or to murder. That is my crime. I am guilty of this.

The victim is the baby. My victim was my baby.

Do not tell me something other than what I know to be the truth.

I didn’t read any of that other crap you posted.

Lisbon1940 said: "It would be better for 100 terrorists to obtain 100 AR-15s each than for one law-abiding American to be prevented from exercising his Constitutional rights."

Absolutely. The "no-fly" list is an abomination. If a non-citizen can't be trusted, deport them. IF a citizen can't be trusted, watch them and be prepared to defend from any attack. Anything else threatens to send us into a political death spiral.

You can't deny the "slippery slope" argument while sliding as quickly as we are.

We should also eliminate the prohibition on possessing guns for released felons. We have built a monumental bureaucracy with FFLs that is worthless. If a person can't be trusted to own a firearm, they should be in prison or an institution for the incompetent.

It is only an illusion of choice, that much is clear to me. I was a Ron Paul supporter. Everybody shit on the small, truthful old doctor that knew the problem and how to fix it. These clowns can go stick their fingers up their butts and twirl. It is a fictitious la la land and one is dumber for participating in it.

Yours is simple. Donalds agreeing with an idea that can be twisted into anything, maybe not while he is president but.....someday FReepers could be declared terrorists, Christians, etc. It’s a Pandoras box.

You expect your candidate, Hillary, to do better?

Stuff it, Jenny.

I'm on record as a Trump voter.

I'm also realistic about his governing philosophy -- or absence thereof.

So let’s say Hillary had said those very same words.

I doubt we’d look past it now would we?

Do you deny that Hillary describes Trump as exactly the sort of person that the poster I was replying to says should be deprived of life, liberty, or property?

Depriving American Citizens of their Constitutional Rights without due process is evil, precisely because it is FAR more likely to be used against us than it is to be used against Mohammedans.

2A is very important to me. Therefore, I am not going to take one comment from Trump and spin it in the worst possible light to the benefit of Hillary Rotten Criminal. Until proven otherwise, Trump deserves the benefit of the doubt. We are in a historic struggle for future of this country. Any aid and comfort to the rampaging Demofascists right now is certainly not principled or conservative.

I’m sorry, but not here, Tamar, not on this site. You are in someone else’s “living room”, in their “house”. Do you visit someone’s house and defecate on the floor? Of course not!

Jim has made it clear he does not want you to trash Trump or his supporters here. He/Freepers do not have to earn your respect. RESPECT on this site is respecting the OWNER’S wishes.

If you don’t think you can do that, Jim has told you to TAKE IT ELSEWHERE.

I know these are blunt words, Tamar, but reality here is respecting Jim’s rules:

His Place, His Rules.

Thank you.

hahaha. Nobody here gave a damn about this list until it could potentially impact white people.

News flash. Innocent people have been put on this list with no due process for a 14 years now.

Nobody has taken me up on my wager in the several weeks it has been up. I think the trumpeters know deep in their hearts that this is all a load of bull crap and the results are foregone. If the Kill’s Trump card won that would be misogyny and misogyny has been band from the land. Kill had to wait in line behind a half negro before the puppeteers would grant her her most ardent wish. Do you really think the evil wench of arkancide fame is going to belly up to an orange tele tubby now? I scoff openly at you!

I hope he does. I agree with Trump on many things, but I am not certain that he understands the level of distrust that exists between Americans and the government.

I do not support increasing the power, capability and reach of its machinery, because that machinery is used against us and no one else.

It is also my understanding that the NRA also supports this no buy if you’re on the list scenario, which is also disappointing.

The answer to the problem of islamic terror in our society is to remove islam and everyone associated with it from our society permanently.

islam is our enemy, not our civil rights.

However, that being said, I still support Trump. There is no other path.
