        ACLU also argues that the Collins amendment could create an even broader watchlist: https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/aclu-opposes-latest-effort-to-bar-those-on-terrorism-watch-l?utm_term=.htXrDE2JOk#.swXYrgN324 …pic.twitter.com/fs6PfvDNkC

        I’m a big fan of the @ACLU but I’d like to see what their proposal is instead of them just knocking down others.

        supports due process before restriction of rights. Google is freely available.

        I’m fine with that and I agree but what specifically do they suggest.

        Well, their job is to defend civil liberties, not solve gun violence. Their proposal is due process for watch lists.

        I guess I should read the Collins amendment first. Regardless I’m a big fan of ACLU

        Essentially, it's hard to find out why you're on a list and dispute it. So using that list to restrict access to guns is unjust.

        They also don't support using "no fly lists" for govt to restrict rights to travel without due process.

        @evanbernick That should be surprising to zero people.

        True, but good to see anyway. Consistency is refreshing.

        They're into broad definitions of civil rights. It's kind of their thing.
