U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio is introducing another bill aimed at preventing suspected terrorists from buying weapons, this time with a 10-year look-back provision on anyone who had previously been investigated.
The bill, dubbed the Terror Intelligence Improvement Act, would require federal agencies to coordinate efforts so that anyone who has been investigated for terrorism by any federal agency in the past decade would be flagged if he or she tries to buy a gun or explosive. There would then be a three-day delay on that purchase while federal authorities determine whether to go to court to seek a permanent injunction against the purchase. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
