WendyMcElroy.com: I'm a terrorist, you're a terrorist
perhaps for legislative measures like H.R. 2159 -- the Denying Firearms and Explosives to Dangerous Terrorists Act of 2009. H.R. 2159 allows the government to deny transfer/sale of a firearm to any "known or suspected dangerous terrorist." In short, the government can deny 2nd Amendment Rights to anyone suspected of being "dangerous." No prior conviction, no hearing, no legal proof seems to be necessary. H.R. 2159 has co-sponsors from both parties, and is currently with the House Committee on the Judiciary. I have no idea if it will pass. I have a very good idea that such legislation will draw upon the preliminary definitions and framework being provided by DHS on what constitutes a potential terrorist: namely, you and me.
