    My mom grew up under an authoritarian regime in Syria that used secret lists to deny rights. Shameful that some in Congress demand same.

        Putting someone on no-fly list without due process and infringing on someone's right to keep & bear arms without due process are both wrong.

        Improving the no-fly list is bipartisan. Suggesting people on it should get guns is an R idea.

        Twitter makes tone and intent hard, mistakes are made (harder still when mixed in with so many others who are D/R partisan trolls)

        Agreed. It can be such a great communication tool, but it has a massive troll problem (which rightfully makes ppl defensive)
