Was this bill introduced before or after we white, christian, ex-military, conservative patriots were determined to be a terrorist threat?

Janet Napolitano has already informed us who the terrorists are. You know, you gotta watch out for those Tea Party types, they're dangerous. And nevermind about the Jihadi training camps on our own soil.

Looks like National Socialist Democrat Party doesn’t give Rino’s rear end about due process or any other of our rights.

Exactly. Due process is out the door unless you want an abortion.

“The biggest attack ever on America was conducted by islamic persons using box cutters.”

I’d suggest the War of 1812 was at least slighlty bigger and Pearl Harbor was more damaging, as it destroyed the core of the Pacific Fleet.

How about “the biggest recent attack”?

He fought for and loved this Country. It breaks my heart to know he is up there looking down and seeing that Country torn asunder

Or the Civil War? Or termites?

The Civil Was wasn’t an external attack.

You do remember we were actually INVADED by the British Army, right? I’m just pointing out that stating that this was the biggest attack ever is not only granting too much power to our enemy, but ignores quite a lot of history.

“The Civil Was wasn’t an external attack.”

We can argue semantics all day. On Dec 24th 1860 South Carolina declared it’s independence from these United States. The exact same legal way that the US had declared independence from Britian. Legally, the south formed a new nation. An excerpt:

We, therefore, the People of South Carolina, by our delegates in Convention assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, have solemnly declared that the Union heretofore existing between this State and the other States of North America, is dissolved, and that the State of South Carolina has resumed her position among the nations of the world, as a separate and independent State; with full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to do all other acts and things which independent States may of right do.

Adopted December 24, 1860

My original point was/is that the single greatest death toll/attack on US soil was carried out with box cutters. Now the congress critters want to restrict our freedoms with guns because of that? Ridiculous..

This will get squashed hard if it passes. It is denial of rights based on suspicion without any due process.

Then it’s By all means – the NSDP wants to destroy any rights explicitly laid out in the BOR, but maintain those rights created out of whole cloth.

The world is certainly turned upside down.

My grandfather always said another Civil War was coming. I’m glad he isn’t around to see it coming to pass.

Maybe coming a lot sooner than later.
