They're laying the groundwork to declare anyone, for any reason, a terrorist, and to deny them rights under the 2nd Amendment.

There is only one legitimate Federal gun law.

Amendment II

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State,
the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Interesting, yet not “Breaking News”. Sortof like a policeman who leaves his siren on all day long, at some point, people start to tune you out if you are always on “Red Alert”.

I put it in "breaking" because NO ONE, not even the hard core 2A groups caught this. They sneaked this in, and even long-time guardians of firearms rights were caught unawares by this announcement. The "hearings" are tomorrow.

To: All

I’ve said it since the Heller decision and with the upcoming McDonald decision.

They won’t be able to outlaw guns once SCOTUS incorporates the 2A, so they will just set about turning us all into criminals. Thereby banning us from owning guns.

Its actually a brilliant move on the part of the Commies, because the courts have continuously upheld restrictions on gun possession and ownership by people convicted of certain crimes, mentally challenged or who have a “history” of violence or violence tendencies.

They will begin by adding militias to terrorist watch lists as well as placing those deemed to be anti-government on the list as well.

Once that is established then the mission creep will set in as some group buried n the bowels of DOJ sets about “defining” others as anti-government, militias and terrorists.

Its the perfect fix, one the courts will be reluctant to stop because once they do it will call into question such prohibitions as non-violent convicted felons, misdemeanor domestic violence convictions etc... who are already denied guns.

In reality, these two bills should be re-named the "Gun Owners Are Probably Terrorists Act," and the "National Firearm Registry Act," respectively. Collectively these bills strip citizens of their enumerated Constitutional Right to Bear Arms without any meaningful due process, and create a national firearms registry.

The Dims are blaming the Tea Party and Republicans for Islamic terrorist attacks again, by saying that we “harass” Muslims and have caused the to go bad.

NRA-ILA has been on this for a while. What about the states, like PA, that do their own background checks and bypass NICS?

Oh, that’s rich. On a year when 90% of Democrats will be losing their seats, Lautenberg is trying to bump the number to 100%.
