The 222-203, nearly party-line vote was an answer to the growing pressure Congress faces to address gun violence and white supremacist attacks — a crisis that escalated following two mass shootings over the weekend. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., a member of the congressional committee investigating the attack on the U.S. Capitol, was the lone Republican to vote in favor of the measure.

Update from this that I posted yesterday: House Democrats planning to move domestic terrorism bill following Buffalo shooting [never let a crisis go to waste]

All I can say is that I may need to move my wife and I from Thailand to a country without an extradition treaty with the US since I, asking with all other FReepers, am about to be officially designated as a domestic terrorist(lol)

And here I thought that shooting people in cold blood was already highly illegal.

Sorry about the initial comment. I guess I forgot the closing ≪ /a > tag.

Don't know if Mr Admin Moderator can correct or not.

“As we took 9/11 seriously, we need to take this seriously.”

They didn’t take an actual threat to our country seriously before 9/11, so now they are over reacting to a make believe threat.

There I fixed it.

Yeah, I’m gonna go out on a limb here, and predict that it will do absolutely nothing of the sort.

So they can pass these sort of bills in one night, but for the life of us cannot pass a bill to help the working American?

Democrats did not take 911 seriously. Most of them were blaming America, or Israel.

The FBI DROPPED THE BALL on the fella- but now we are supposed to believe that a new bill will make the FBI stop dropping the ball on the shooters? The ONLY thing it will accomplish is that now more people will be involved, and it will cost much more money to DROP THE BALL on other people i nthe future-

How do you know the FBI dropped the ball? Maybe this is exactly what they wanted.

Does it designate anyone with an American flag on their house a domestic terrorist?

Nah, they'll do that through the regulations implementing this new law.

To add, the regulation will be classified, of course, so you won’t know if you’re on the list until you try to fly or until they knock down your front door to rendition you to a DHS Black Site.

Antifa and the Communist Black Lives MatterTM are domestic terrorists. The FBI agents who staged a planned kidnapping of Governor Heil Whitmer are as well.

Didn't you get the memo? Only pro lifers, pro border, and Ultra MAGA types are included here.

Try to keep up, please!

🤣🤣🤣
