re: #127 Dark_Falcon

We’ve been over this one: The right to own a gun is a right that cannot be taken away without due process of law (adjudicating someone as mentally ill or convicting them of a crime requires due process, or at least is supposed to). The terrorist watch list, by contrast, does not provide for due process: People are added to it based on criterion that by necessity cannot be revealed to the general public, and once on this list there is no due process procedure for being removed from it. Thus that proposal is a non-starter.

If your Constitutional rights are designed to protect the rights of any fool to arm themselves any way they please over the common sense of not having kids shot, then your Constitution is morally and ethically wrong.
