Lautenberg is no surprise, but King wants to become governor. He's an idiot!

Looks like more and more “Henry Bowman’s” are going to be popping up.

The names of these laws are getting sillier.

‘Dangerous Terrorists’ - to quote Jack Nicholson, is there another kind?

“some members of Congress are again using fear of terrorism to implement a gun-control agenda”

Not surprising. Look at what they’ve accomplished by flogging fear of global warming, which is a lot less real than terrorism. Liberals don’t believe in women’s rights, environmentalism, gay rights or any other device they can use to accumulate concentrated power in the government; they’re all just a means to an end.

Am I on it yet?
I keep trying and maybe some day I will make the list.
Every good citizen should be on this list. We want to assure that the government "fears" (respects) it's citizens.

For legislators like Lautenberg and King, who apparently have absolute faith in unelected government officials to make the right decisions for the right reasons at the right times (and never be required to explain those decisions)...

These men do NOT have "absolute faith in unelected officials to make the right decisions...". They WANT unlected officials, chosen by them and their cronies to HAVE unlimited power to do THEIR bidding. It has NOTHING to do with "right decisions for the right reasons at the right times" and EVERYTHING to do with bringing about a totalitarian form of government in this country (run by people who think like they do).

Lautenberg has been hard at work on it for DECADES.

“If a person were to be refused “permission” to purchase a firearm or explosive...”

That’s how the Left sees it... the 2nd Amendment is only so enforceable as far as they give “permission.”

So, couple Janet Nappy’s list of “domestic extremists,” and you’ve got your ready-made enemies list. In addition to this, watch for a “Gun-Control Czar” position coming to an administration near you.

The only problem is, once you are on it, it is a federal crime for a gun dealer to sell you a gun.

You mean a “Firearms Safety Czar”, right?

I wonder if they will be able to sieze the firearms you already own?

...and they’ll use existing lists to relieve you of anything you have - NFA owners in particular.

The mafia dons used a similar method to avoid prosecution for conspiracy to commit murder.

Our govenrment: Soon to be the mafia writ large.

I agree. I sincerely hope I am on the Kenyan Muslim Marxist’s watch list. Every patriot should consider it a badge of honor to be on Hussein’s enemies list.

would empower the U.S. Attorney General to deny a person the ability to exercise their Second Amendment rights to purchase a firearm.

Good, that will trigger the end of this tyranny. Let's just get it over with. People know once the touch the 2nd amendment they have nothing left to lose except their freedom.
