In announcing his plan to sign an executive order that would deny issuance of gun permits to individuals on the U.S. government's “no-fly” list, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy is once again positioning himself, and so Connecticut, as a leader in pursuing sensible gun restriction policies. And what could be more sensible than denying a person, judged so risky that he cannot get on an airplane, access to a deadly weapon?

| Apparently, the writer has no clue about the 5th Amendment. |

"judged" by who ? Not actually adjudicated, so guilty until proven innocent ? Welcome to Amerika !
I'm sure some antigun government official would like to place the entire membership of the NRA on the watch list that nobody knows why they're on. Apply it to foreign nationals if you want to, but US citizens are SUPPOSED to have some rights !! |

| Publish the names on the no fly list. What is the secret? Maybe lawsuits for denial of due process? |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
