Trump affirms backing gun ban for those on terror watch list
Washington Examiner ^ | June 18, 2016 | John Siciliano

Posted on 06/18/2016 8:56:11 PM PDT by ConservativeTeen

Donald Trump reaffirmed his stance on restricting individuals on the terror watch list from being able to purchase firearms, despite Republican objections.

"We have to make sure that people that are terrorists or have even an inclination toward terrorism cannot buy weapons, guns," Trump told ABC's White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl in an interview that will air Sunday on "This Week."

“No, my position is that Islam is a religion of peace, and Muslims have no inclination toward terrorism.”

Really...

I am very sad over the political climate. Trying to avoid arguments about political candidates. I don’t like any of them.

You’re welcome, Chris.

For any who may be haunted or tormented by past sins, this thought may provide profound healing:

God’s Love is GREATER than all our Sin.

That thought is amazing. It fills the heart with with deep gratitude.

When He forgives us, he purifies us. He makes it just as if we have never sinned!

If He truly washes our sins “as white as snow”, and wipes our slate “clean”, then in gratitude, are we not duty-bound to honor Him by refusing to allow our minds (and sometimes Satan) to replay, or remind ourselves of past sin?

I would still distrust such a process given how many rabid leftists are in government right now.

Not voting for someone who coddles Muslims would be a start.

all we need is someone like roberts to come along and make sure that a preemptive no gun list would be constitutionally settled law based on pro trump comments on sites like FR after trump announces support for such lists.

Hopefully folks won’t succumb to temptation and give people like roberts cover that they could use against citizens.

:-(

I didn’t intend to insult the host - I wasn’t aware he was a Trump fan. I have been disillusioned with the political circus since Ron got 1% of the vote in 2008. I don’t believe any candidate we are permitted to vote for answers to we the people. The system is global now. Calling trump names is all in good fun - his name in papers and on news sites is almost as omnipresent as BLM or lgtbq. Just venting because I get annoyed with the saturation coverage. But my bet is dead serious. Thanks for being cordial.

No problem : )

You know, I was “late in the game” coming to understand a lot of what RP’s positions were and why much of it I actually agreed with.

There is NO doubt in my mind that he was cheated out of votes AND DELEGATES, along the same lines as what they are doing to DJT.

You are spot on, it IS a global system now. So many of us have had their eyes opened at some point (a flower blooms when it is ready~ha!).

We don’t know what the future holds but can pray and believe that God is in control, and it will work out as He wishes.

Thanks to YOU for responding to me in that same cordial manner, Dirt for Sale. It has been a pleasure.

Be well, FRiend.

Step 1 - Ban gun purchases by anyone on the watch list.

Step 2 - Put everyone on the watch list.

No, it's the way I describe Lord Foul's acolytes, and as far as I am concerned, some, mind you not all or even many, but some of Trump's supporters behave the same way, attacking and insulting those that don't think exactly as they do.

You use painfully immature phrases and images in just about every post.

Congress will have the Peoples' backs on this.

Congress??? You mean Mitch McTurtle? Schmuck Schumer? Nasty Pelosi? Paul Ryno?

Seriously???

Trump needs to get his head out of his butt on this.

I think there are about 3 Senators and a handful of Representatives that I can actually trust on this.

'Trump replied, “If somebody is on a watch list and an enemy of state and we KNOW it's an enemy of state, I would keep them away, absolutely. Trump also said Obama should resign if he is unwilling to label the attacker a "radical Islamist", a term the president, in response, said would only serve to alienate and antagonize peaceful Muslims the world over.' http://tribumagazine.net/2016/06/trump-to-discuss-terrorism-watch-list-no-fly-ban/

If somebody is on a watch list

I'm more interested in who creates secret government watch lists than I am in the people listed on them.

I do NOT trust politicians and I trust bureaucrats even less.

Trump is wrong on this one.

Are you willing to hold his feet to the fire?

If all Trump’s comments are taken together, what he wants to do is deal with known enemies of the US. [The emphasis on ‘known’ was Trump’s, not mine.] People are whipping themselves into a frenzy by persuading themselves Trump wants to disarm most US citizens. Nothing could be further from the truth. He was to deal effectively with Muslim terrorists, period.
