The NRA claims that they hate the terrorists as much as the next guy, but they don’t want any laws that take guns away, because that will be the first step in government taking everyone’s guns away.
Essentially what this law would do is deny weapons sales to anybody on the terror watch list. While I feel that the NRA is being paranoid in their approach, they do have a valid point when it comes to the terror watch list. The terror watch list has proven itself to be overwhelmingly inaccurate and less than reliable. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
