Hmmm... 1. Define the Conservative base as terrorists.

2. Remove "terrorists" rights by not allowing them to fly or buy guns.

3. ???

I do not think this legislation has much chance right now, but a number of far left organizations and legislators seem to think it is a good idea.

You are putting the pieces together.

Liberalism is not always transparent.

as of now, they don't even have to tell you why you are on the list...

What she really wants is to ban everyone who flies in an airplane from owning a gun.

Presumably, McCarthy doesn’t have to worry about a “no fly” ban as her broom quietly waits in the corner ...

This is a BS idea. The list is ostensibly arbitrary. Denied rights without due process.

With Zero and his staff pushing it, it might get done with an executive order.

Check out the video directly related to the subject!

I guess they found the clause “shall not be infringed, unless one is on a list created by incompetent people in a department yet to be created”

My congressional representative, who doesn’t even have a clue where her hometown is anymore, never met a water pistol that she didn’t want banned.

You can bet your bottom dollar that this is something snakey repackaged in the form of this bill. If this bill is read in its entirety, you can bet that it has hidden bombs in it. Hopefully, those bombs will be discovered and this bill killed.

If these people are on a no fly list, then why are they not rounded up and deported in the first place?

So we’ll be allowed to profile gun owners but not Muslims! Sounds just like an idea from the looney, gun-grabbing left! Oh, wait...

A Zogby International Poll last month found that 69 percent of 3,967 registered American voters only supported a move to prohibit people on the no-fly list from buying a weapon if they have previously been convicted of a crime. On the other hand, 20 percent said anyone on the list should be prohibited.

Once you start infringing, there will never be a firm endpoint.

America -- a great idea, didn't last.

Oh, good plan. Expand the erroneous and ambiguous list compiled by incompetents so that it can injure more people in more fundamental ways than it did before. Your tax dollars at “work”.

FYI: The 2nd Amendment is SELF-incorporated to all government entities at every level. It is MORE ABSOLUTE than the 1st Amendment, or any of the others, because the wording forbids not only CONGRESS, but ANYONE from infringing on it. The 1st says “Congress shall make no law...”. The 2nd say “shall NOT be infringed!” Period! End of debate!

You gotta know the liberals have an ulterior motive here. It's the first time in my recollection that they actually want to deny terrorists of rights.
