Another attempt to take away your rights label you as a terrorist and take away your rights to buy weapons to protect yourself from our government.

Lautenberg concerned about our security!
I believe there is another motive ... that we just don’t see due to his sleight-of-hand and the smoke and mirrors.
Guess we’ll see it when it’s too late.

Heck, we’re all already labeled right-wing extremists... Next step - we’ll be on the watch list and prohibited from buying firearms.

That’s so when the BOLO is issued for the suspect de jour, they can be listed as Armed and Dangerous.

Gun purchases must be approved unless federal officials can find some other disqualification of the would-be buyer
Money line right there...100% disqualification is the goal.

According to recent DHS reports, not supporting abortion or gay marriage makes you a terrorist threat and hate group.
No guns for you!!!!
To: FromLori
People on the governments terrorist watch list tried to buy guns nearly 1,000 times in the last five years, and federal authorities cleared the purchases 9 times out of 10 because they had no legal way to stop them, according to a new government report.This is the same "terrorist watch list" that wouldn't allow a sitting U.S. Senator to board his flight because the name T. Kennedy was flagged as a terrorist. So does this mean Tom or Travis Kennedy can't buy a gun (let alone fly)?

plans to introduce legislation on Monday that would give the attorney general the discretion to block gun sales to people on terror watch lists.Wonder how many names are on the Terrorist Watch List, and if it is like most government databases as far as information quality.
Did you ever wonder "who's list" your name is on?

Lautenberg thought process:
The government doesn’t adequately enforce existing laws pertaining to terrorism, abuse of guns and criminal behavior.
Criminals and terrorists don’t obey the laws we already have pertaining to use and abuse of guns (that’s why they are called criminals and terrorists).
Law abiding citizens observe the law and rarely use guns in illegal ways.
Many judges show more empathy for convicted criminals than their victims and they show low respect for the law in sentencing violent criminals.
The Obama adnministration is more concerned with labelling honest, law abiding, patriotic Americans as terrorists than it is with releasing releasing real terrorists from prison so they can try to kill more Americans.
Therefore - LETS PASS MORE GUN CONTROL LAWS.

Lautenberg is a senile old fart who has no business being in the U.S. Senate. He’s a pathetic joke.

Lautenberg is a senile old fart who has no business being in the U.S. Senate. He knew it when he retired however since his seat was being lost to a Republican, the old "party before country" kicked in and he came out of retirement to save the party.
True, those from New Jersey?

Agree 100%, but that also describes about 87.5% of the Senate and House, demo and repub. (would Boxer, Feinstein, Waters, et al, be “fartresses”?)

Madam Boxer would be something all on her own...

Another attempt to take away your rights label you as a terrorist and take away your rights to buy weapons to protect yourself from our government. You named it. Not even a conviction necessary, no due process of law.
When they came for those on the terrorist watch list
I did nothing, because I was not on the terrorist watch list...
America -- a great idea, didn't last.
