CNSNews.com asked Garamendi, who sponsored a “no fly, no buy” bill in the House last December and planned to reintroduce it in response to the Orlando massacre: “Do you think the Second Amendment right will help protect Americans from terrorism? Do you think the individual bearing of arms will protect Americans from radical Islam?”
“No,” Garamendi answered. “It will not.”
“That is a fight that has to be carried on internationally,” said the congressman, who participated in House Democrats' Wednesday sit-in over gun control. “And we’re doing that over in the Middle East right now. |

What BS. First, this is a DEMOCRAT co-sponsor, of a bill that is unconstitutional on several fronts; the Second, Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments.
The Second Amendment infringement is obvious, but it is activated by the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. While the Second guarantees a fundamental right, the Fifth and Fourteenth guarantee that this right (and all others) cannot be denied a priori, without due process of law.
This bill would allow being named on the list to initially deny the right to buy a firearm, with a supposed "due process" right of appeal after the fact.
The Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments guarantee that rights can't be denied until AFTER due process, not BEFORE. |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.' The right of the whole people, old and young, men, women and boys, and not militia only, to keep and bear arms of every description, and not such merely as are used by the militia, shall not be infringed, curtailed, or broken in upon, in the smallest degree; and all this for the important end to be attained: the rearing up and qualifying a well-regulated militia, so vitally necessary to the security of a free State. Our opinion is that any law, State or Federal, is repugnant to the Constitution, and void, which contravenes this right. [Nunn vs. State, 1 Ga. (1 Kel.) 243, at 251 (1846)] |
