NY Post calls NRA Leader Jihadi Wayne

[AvgGuyIA]

New York City tabloid is continuing its battle with the National Rifle Association, calling NRA honcho Wayne LaPierre “Jihadi Wayne” on the cover of Monday morning’s edition for opposing sensible gun laws that could prevent terrorists from purchasing high-powered weapons.

The New York Daily News screaming headline “Nowhere To Hide, Jihadhi Wayne” on Monday morning comes on the heels of a similar headline last Wednesday reading: “NRA’s Sick Jihad.”

At issue is the NRA using their overwhelming influence with lawmakers to block a law that would ban anyone on the terrorist watch list from purchasing a gun.

The bill, known as the Denying Firearms and Explosives to Dangerous Terrorists Act, was proposed in the wake of the terrorist attacks in Paris that left 129 people in Paris dead and hundreds more injured. Gun control advocates say that a legal loophole allows suspects on the terrorist watch list to purchase guns while the same list prevents them from flying on U.S. airlines.

The bill was originally proposed in 2007, but has been blocked by conservative lawmakers who are heavily backed by the NRA.

According GOP House member and bill co-sponsor Rep. Peter King of Long Island, the NRA is opposed to any bills that might stop anyone from purchasing a gun.

“Anything which they feel restricts the use or the ability to retain a gun they’re opposed to,” King said.


I hate the NY Post for their "Click Bait" styled titles but they have a point

I am against any foreign national being permitted to purchase firearms. I personally know of no NRA member who feels otherwise. So what else was in the bill?

That said, the individual members of the NRA who have decided to exercise their 1st Amendment rights corporately are highly successful in squashing the agenda of the anti-Constitutionalists of the Democratic Party.

It's just like Citizen's United.

God Bless Citizen's United.

Yes, I dont understand why we can kill and jail people for being suspected terrorist but taking away their gun is beyond the pale.

. That's because cutting off someone's head is not in the First Amendment or the Second or any of our amendments. However, The Second amendment allows us to own guns and taking them away would be wrong and unconstitutional.

You realize there is no due process in that law….right…..no one has been convicted of anything or even charged with anything to get on that list….and once on the list you can't even find out why you were put on the list…right?

Typical left wing fascists……...

You are in error...again!

In your post you claimed, "...and once on the list you can't even find out why you were put on the list…right?"

From HR 1076, Sec 2(j)(3):
" '(b) In any case in which the Attorney General has denied the transfer of a firearm to a prospective transferee pursuant to section 922A or has made a determination regarding a firearm permit applicant pursuant to section 922B, an action challenging the determination may be brought against the United States. The petition must be filed not later than 60 days after the petitioner has received actual notice of the Attorney General's determination made pursuant to section 922A or 922B. The court shall sustain the Attorney General's determination on a showing by the United States by a preponderance of evidence that the Attorney General's determination satisfied the requirements of section 922A or 922B. To make this showing, the United States may submit, and the court may rely on, summaries or redacted versions of documents containing information the disclosure of which the Attorney General has determined would likely compromise national security. On request of the petitioner or the court's own motion, the court may review the full, undisclosed documents ex parte and in camera. The court shall determine whether the summaries or redacted versions, as the case may be, are fair and accurate representations of the underlying documents. The court shall not consider the full, undisclosed documents in deciding whether the Attorney General's determination satisfies the requirements of section 922A or 922B.' " [Emphasis Mine]

The bill provides for what you claim it doesn't!

 

[Billy_Kinetta]

God forbid an organization fights for people's rights. Bureaucrats should not be able to decide who gets what rights.

SCOTUS has upheld these types of restrictions.

No "right" is absolute.

SCOTUS says so.

You FAIL.

SCOTUS also said it has greater-than-equal power among the branches of government, and that Dred Scott and his shaded friends could not be citizens.

And that was turned over by SCOTUS. Dred Scott's 'shaded friends' has the same rights as you today I know you think that stinks.

The point was not that it was ultimately overturned, but that the SCOTUS is not infallible, and settled law does not exist.. Just because the "SCOTUS says" something is law does not make that something legal under the Constitution, and all rulings are subject to being revisited.

What a silly billy: it is settled, until the next time. And there will be no more next time when SCOTUS rules blacks are not US citizens. Sux to be a silly billy.

You make no sense. Did you pose for the picture?

Do you geniuses realize this........

--2 of the three Charlie Hebdo killers were on French Government, terrorist watch lists.....and they and their buddy got fully automatic rifles, grenades, pistols and a rocket propelled grenade....

--Most if not all of the recent paris killers who killed 128 people and injured 300 others were on French Government, terrorist watch list and at least one had already been arrested for terrorist sympathizing activities......and they got fully automatic rifles, pistols, explosives and made suicide vests....

--Normal French citizens...not on the terrorist watch lists are unable to own fully automatic rifles, pistols and explosives....

so really.........you guys want to deny normal people the right to protect themselves in exchange for NOT stopping terrorists from getting guns....right?

Sensitive and classified national security information would NEVER be made public in open court OR disseminated to those without the "need to know". The fact that a person denied the permit under the proposed bill is allowed to take their case to a Federal Court for adjudication as disclosed by the very sentence you quote is proof you are in error. Under this bill those denied a permit have the opportunity to challenge a decision of denial.
