So you guys really want to give up your guns now? The stage is being set. It's like the old fashioned "general search warrant" or "writ of assistance" of the past.

You seriously cannot think of any situation where taking out an American citizen might be absolutely vital? The idea that you cannot is a bit scary to me.

As asked before, won't all the gunnery experts just shoot down the drones?

What is the address of the Republican National Headquarters again?

“It is possible, I suppose, to imagine an extraordinary circumstance in which it would be necessary and appropriate under the Constitution and applicable laws of the United States for the President to authorize the military to use lethal force within the territory of the United States.”

Doesn't this remind anyone else of the period 1861 - 1865?

Actually, reading that earlier on aol news...made me nervous. Isn't this the beginning of where the right to bear arms are to stop tyranny from our own government? And does this not sound suspiciously like that could be the plan down the road eventually? It sure does to me. I'm pretty sure I don't like it. At all.

We are truly doomed if peoples ideology has become so rigid that we can't even come together on something like this and denounce it.

If only Republicans knew that all Pro-Gun supporters, including people like myself, that only post on the internet are on Terrorist Watch Lists, they would be more afraid of this.

If only Democrats knew that all Occupy Wall Street organizers and identified participants were also on the Terrorist Watch Lists, they too would be more afraid of this.

Since I am both an Occupy Wall Streeter and a Pro-Gun person, I get searched rather hard when I go to airports and questionnaired. At least the feds respect me enough to build me my own FEMA coffin.
