There’s been much focus since the Orlando nightclub shooting on finding new ways to prevent terrorist events like it from happening again on U.S. soil. The U.S. House has been particularly focused on the issue, even during summer recess.
While radicalization and homegrown terrorism certainly need to be stamped out, and the House proposals seek to do that, they’re also concerning for those who care about due process and the rule of law.
Democrats have proposed an outright ban for those on terrorist watch lists and the country’s no-fly list from purchasing firearms. It’s an explicitly unconstitutional proposal.

TO REMEMBER |
| "Let us contemplate our forefathers, and posterity, and resolve to maintain the rights bequeathed to us from the former, for the sake of the latter. The necessity of the times, more than ever, calls for our utmost circumspection, deliberation, fortitude, and perseverance. Let us remember that `if we suffer tamely a lawless attack upon our liberty, we encourage it, and involve others in our doom.' It is a very serious consideration...that millions yet unborn may be the miserable sharers of the event." --Samuel Adams, speech in Boston, 1771 |
