The senator behind the Assault Weapons Ban bill and a House Republican have teamed up for new gun-control legislation — to ban terrorists from buying guns.

Why not just directly ban the terrorists themselves? That’d be much more effective than just banning them from having guns, right?

It should be VERY easy to see where this is going – given the number of times the Government refers to “right wing terrorism”:

Muslim Group Cites Biden as Referring to Extremist Violence ‘in the Name of the Bible’
http://cnsnews.com/news/article/patrick-goodenough/muslim-group-cites-biden-referring-extremist-violence-name-bible

(CNSNews.com) – A U.S. Islamic advocacy group says that Vice- President Joe Biden, addressing a White House summit on “countering violent extremism (CVE)” on Tuesday, referred to right-wing extremists and supremacists committing violence “in the name of the Bible.”

Ohio National Guard Training Envisions Right-Wing Terrorism

Documents from an Ohio National Guard (ONG) training drill conducted last January reveal the details of a mock disaster where Second Amendment supporters with “anti-government” opinions were portrayed as domestic terrorists.

Put that in place and anyone on the right who wants a gun will be excluded from getting one.

“”Trying to conflate fear of terrorism with the liberal agenda to gain control over gun ownership.””

Yeah, I know where she’s coming from. We watched her operate as our Senator for years until the day we said “Take this state and _______ it” and bugged out of the state in 2006....She was a nightmare when she got to the Senate and has been one ever since.
