A Senate sponsor of a defeated compromise on expanding gun sale background checks says he'll consider changing the measure to add people on the government's terror list to those forbidden from owning firearms.


It was unclear which list Manchin was talking about. The government has investigated hundreds of thousands of people for terrorist ties, though not all are guilty and only a few are on a "no-fly" list.



Could this be the Christian list, the home-schooler list, the Tea Party member list, the NRA member list, or some other list?

Manchin is an idiot, pure and simple.

This doesn't even seem innocent, not for one second. There is no due process relating to the "terrorist watch lists." Limiting or denying someone's rights without due process is blatantly unconstitutional, and against everything this country is supposed to stand for.
