I'd have to read the whole bill to be certain, but based solely on that excerpt I'm concerned.

Example: "The House bill would ... make it a federal crime for any US citizen to receive "military-type training" from a group designated as a terrorist organization by the US government." Okay. What's that training? "'Military-type training' is defined as training 'in means or methods that can cause death or serious bodily injury, ... or training on the use, storage, production, or assembly of any explosive, firearm or other weapon..." Focus on the highlighted text. So, hypothetically, if President Hillary Clinton designates the NRA as a terrorist organization, then I as a NRA Certified Instructor and my students could be jailed for having a Basic Pistol class.
