You don't want people like Lois Lerner in charge of that.

Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump is reaffirming his stance on potentially restricting individuals on the terror watch list from being able to purchase firearms, a week after the worst mass shooting in U.S. history.
"We have to make sure that people that are terrorists or have even an inclination toward terrorism cannot buy weapons, guns," Trump told ABC News Chief White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl in an interview to air Sunday on "This Week."
Asked by Karl if his position is that those on the no-fly or terror watch list should not be able to purchase a gun, Trump responded, "I'd like to see that, and I'd like to say it. And it's simpler. It's just simpler."
In a tweet Wednesday, Trump announced he would meet with the NRA to discuss banning those on the terror watch list or no fly list from buying guns.

Aren't conservative groups considered terrorist now days?
“We have to make sure that people that are terrorists or have even an inclination toward terrorism cannot buy weapons, guns,”
**********************************************************
NO, that headline is wrong, typical media twits and their lies....
The above is what Trump said...
Yes, and what sort of people have an ‘inclination towards terrorism’?
I believe Trump knows the answer to that question.
Trump is a populist. Get used to these kinds of statements.
“Aren’t conservative groups considered terrorist now days?” Only the right wing extremist branch of the conservative groups. Oh. I guess that’s the new definition of conservative. Somebody needs to take Donald aside and ‘splain why this is NOT the road to take on this issue. Secret lists made up by invisible govt entities is NEVER a good idea.
In the full quote Trump also said that there are people on the watchlist who shouldn’t be there and their rights should be respected.
Thanks for clearing that up, I figured as much.
Ok then, which amendment will you repeal, the 2nd or the 5th? Other than that, see ya in court or on the battlefield. Terrorists don’t get to make our laws Mr Trump, now don’t you have a wall to build or something?
NO, that headline is wrong, typical media twits and their lies....
The above is what Trump said...
This is textbook gaslighitng. They will twist any fact and try to create confusion about Trump trying to depress conservative support for Trump. I thought they were going to be about the abortion issue but apparently the never Trumpers have settled on using 2A to campaign for the Butcher of Benghazi.
What part of the Second Amendment does Trump not understand.
“We have to make sure that people that are terrorists or have even an inclination toward terrorism cannot buy weapons, guns,”
We have to make sure that people that are terrorists are dead, jailed or deported. Buying gun is not an issue. That statement makes no sense.
...or have even an inclination toward terrorism cannot buy weapons, guns — same deal. They need to be deported, not told they can’t buy guns.
This is really a dumb statement. Doesn’t really even make sense.
Sorry, but it is.
“Aren’t conservative groups considered terrorist now days? “
He addressed the problem of lists this morning on face the nation.
What are some things you think Trump has done well?
Prosecute, jail, kill, or deport terrorists. Letting terrorist roam the streets with a promise that they won’t be buying guns is IDIOTIC!
Trump, wise up!
Who decides? Post the list? Appeal? Put all Muslims on it? How about what remains of Bundy’s family that is not already in jail? And any member of La Raza?
Do you really believe that Syrian refugees and Somalian immigrants have second amendment rights? Are you a Hillary supporter?
You don't want people like Lois Lerner in charge of that.
No need to apologise. The articke is 100% BS. Watch the full interview.
Get ready. The never Trumpers and deluded Cruzers think they have found a space space in the 2A issue to attack Trump. So they are twisting any “fact” they can find and piling on big time. The intent is to depress conservative support for Trump and throw the election to Hillary. How principled and conservative of them.
Do you really believe that Syrian refugees and Somalian immigrants have second amendment rights? Are you a Hillary supporter?
I personally am outraged the goat humper in Florida had his Constitutional right to buy body armor violated.
Just one follow up question, Mr. Trump, if you know who the terrorists are, why are they walking around possibly buying guns instead of in prison? Why are sex offender lists published, yet the names of those who might walk into a church, a night club, a movie theatre not published as well?
They are Americans or they are not. I don’t want them here at all.
