This will work out well, Part 2.

Gun Digest points out that “terrorist” is undefined and has been expanded to include gun owners.

Currently before the House Judiciary Committee, “The Denying Firearms and Explosives to Dangerous Terrorists Act of 2009 would authorize Attorney General Eric Holder to deny the sale or transfer of firearms to known or suspected terrorists—a list that could extend beyond groups such as radical Islamists and other groups connected to international terror organizations,”

Well, I’m sure he’d never misuse that power. (Just ask the Republican Chrysler dealers)

“Critics say the names of suspected terrorists could be drawn from existing government watch lists that cover such broad categories as animal rights extremists, Christian identity extremists, black separatists, anti-abortion extremists, anti-immigration extremists and anti-technology extremists.”

In effect, any group or people who someone might want to label as “extremist” or “anti.”

“It doesn’t say anything about trials and due process,” Larry Pratt, executive director of Gun Owners of America, told Fox News. “This is one of the most outrageous pieces of legislation to come along in some time. It’s basically saying, ‘I suspect you, so your rights are toast.’”

Like the list of people too dangerous to be allowed to fly, but not dangerous enough to arrest? The one with all the mistakes on it? Right.

The bill’s Constitutionality was a big question.

Ya think?
