    A Muslim ban wouildn't have helped much at Fort Hood or Orlando.

    It seems like there is a pretty easy workaround the Muslim ban:

    "Are you Muslim? Check 'yes' or 'no.'"

    "No."

    They could just do like a lot of conservatives do and pretend they're Christian.

    You wouldn't know a fact if it bit you on the ass.

    Sorry, but the vast majority of gun deaths in America are from every-day life in liberal cities, not mass shootings. And that's where the gun control folks are really aiming.

    RE: legislation, building on top of an already Constitutionally flawed construct makes no sense. It seems pretty obvious that the "no fly" list could be redesigned as a "no fly, no buy" list that would pass Constitutional muster if it had an adequate system to protect the due process rights of people on the list, including: notice that you're being placed on the list; reason(s) and basis for being placed on the list, and the ability to seek redress before a neutral arbiter.

    You're a real peach. I am well aware you and your cronies don't want a real discussion. Go work on your Latin. It makes you look so smart.
