As broad and arbitrary and as ambiguous as can be. This is the type of legislation that can be incrementally expanded. They will always find someone that is terrified by scary looking guns that make loud noises.
Why don't we just outlaw all weapons. Citizens, police, military, everybody ?
If all weapons are evil let's get rid of every single one.

The GOP fears negative MSM press more than the people.
They are making a bad mistake.

Got rid of John Boehner and got Paul Ryan.
What a waste of time.
We need a new party.
The Republicans are simply statist of a slightly different flavor than the Democrats. The Republicans are in the business of selling influence just as much as the Democrats.

Of course. That is the point. Suppress patriots. Empower and encourage Marxists.

Wow! They’ve already erected a national monument to Ryan for caving. Good to see that congress can work fast when it finds something important to do. /s

My congressman Paul Gosar is a good man with a good record. I am quite lucky to have him. At one time Burnie was my congress critter. Isn't it amazing how simply lying has caused so much misery with far more to come. The whore of Babylon approaches.

It is good of Mr. Ryan to keep reminding us why electing someone like Trump is so important.

“suspected terrorists”
As broad and arbitrary and as ambiguous as can be.

With Hillary and her USSC nominees it will likely become “potential terrorists”.

Let the voters see where the lefties stand on their rights before the election. This will help the Republicans in November.
