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 |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
