4. Not all Democrats are in favor of "no fly, no buy"

Sun Jul 10, 2016, 02:43 PM

Jul 2016

I am a Democrat and I would vote no on a "no fly, no buy."

Sorry but I feel it's a bad proposal that is unconstitutional. And I don't like the idea of the government creating a secret list that removes constitutional rights with no due process of law. To me, that's something I could not accept. So if I were a member of Congress, I would vote no on this. And I would be urging my representatives to vote no on this.

You need to get rid of the 2nd amendment first.
