That is an absolute crock.
It was the NRA who blocked banning terrorists from the no buy list
/----/ And for good reason. Apparently the gun grabbers didn't consider all of the facts.
In a letter this week to Attorney General
Alberto Gonzales, NRA executive director Chris Cox said the bill, offered last week by Sen.
Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J.,
"would allow arbitrary denial of Second Amendment rights based on mere 'suspicions' of a terrorist threat."
"As many of our friends in law enforcement have rightly pointed out, the word 'suspect' has no legal meaning, particularly when it comes to denying constitutional liberties," Cox wrote.
In a letter supporting the measure, Acting Assistant Attorney General Richard Hertling said
the bill would not automatically prevent a gun sale to a suspected terrorist. In some cases, federal agents may want to let a sale go forward to avoid compromising an ongoing investigation.
