I mean, we're talking about a GOP that voted down a measure that would've stopped those on the Terrorism Watch List (who aren't even allowed on an airplane) from obtaining firearms. They'd rather allow potential terrorists access to legally purchased weapons than enact any kind of gun control. They're sure not going to try to stop everyday Americans from getting guns, regardless of how unfit those Americans are.

1) What oversight is there in regards to who gets on the Terrorism Watch list?
As in, what keeps it from being a "political enemy list"?
2) What does "shall not be infringed" mean to you?
