Christopher Orr added,
Are you familiar with the sordid, civil liberties-destroying history of the "terror watch list"?
Not advocating for or against list. Merely saying that if it keeps you off a plane, it should keep you from buying an assault rifle
So you're saying its power should be broadened to infringe on even more domains.
Abstract "broadened" "power" means nothing. If you want to argue for rights of sick people to buy assault rifles, then go ahead.
Inclusion on the terror watch list doesn't indicate that a person is "sick."
The terror watch list should not be used as an instrument for preventing the acquisition of rifles. That's my position.
I don't pretend to gauge merits of terror watch list. Only saying that gun-purchase penalties should pre-date flight penalties.
If the list is inherently flawed, which it is, then meting out any penalties on the basis of it is wrongheaded.
Preventing the acquisition of rifles can be achieved by legislative and other remedies that don't involve legitimating this List.
