Well, lessee. Potential illegal military training includes

Martial arts training
Firearms training
Reloading
Blacksmithing
Boy Scouts
Most engineering training

All they have to do is decide that they don't like your "group." I wonder if it is retroactive? If I got my firearms training in the Boy Scouts (thirty years ago!), and President Hillary! decides the Boy Scouts are terrorists, does this make me a guilty of "providing material support" for terrorists?
This is pretty silly. Unfortunately, it is about par for congresscritters.

Bingo!

Now, I doubt they'd pick the BSA. I doubt they'd pick the NRA...it's too darned big. But, what about the GOA? What about some of the other RKBA organizations that are a bit smaller and have less political clout?

What about all those other organizations that are a bit on the fringe? Those are the ones that are the most likely to be targeted by an unfriendly administration.

They're all over the place. I can see it now. Why, there are Freepers who hint at civil disturbances here all the time. Maybe FR might be targeted.

There are many reasons to oppose this legislation. The liberals have some, and so do conservatives. It's a bad bill.
