Then Obama blamed guns, which is like blaming forks for the obesity epidemic.
This administration could not run a church bake sale. It spent $2.1 billion on an unworkable Obamacare website, but somehow it wants to convince you that having one more technical gun law on the books would have kept this from happening. Keep in mind, these folks can't even keep terrorists on the "no-fly list" from legally buying guns. And the "G-hottie" terrorist wife got into our country by giving a false address on her visa. |

"these folks can't even keep terrorists on the 'no-fly list' from legally buying guns."
A misleading criticism. Apparently it has dawned on practically no one that doing so would facially violate 5th Amendment due process protections.
Without due process resulting in either a conviction or adjudication of mental incompetence, no fundamental right can be denied. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
