The latest version of the Democrats strategy of denying constitutional rights and due process in the race for a socialist utopia with them in control -- is No Buy No Fly. The contention is that anyone on the No Fly list should not be able to purchase a gun. No conviction no due process no appeal no knowledge of why you are on the list no way off the list and its all shrouded in government secrecy as is all future control of your life.
But consider this...
If someone is dangerous enough to be a danger merely as a passenger on an airplane so that they cant fly on an airplane and thats why they are on the No Fly list arent they also just as much a danger as a passenger on a bus or a boat or a train? So shouldnt they also be banned from all public transportation Amtrak and ferry boats? Should cab companies nationwide and Uber be notified not to pick this person up for a ride under any circumstances?
If they are too dangerous to ride as a passenger then they are far too dangerous to operate a vehicle. Shouldnt their cars and trucks be confiscated just in case? If they cant be trusted to drive they certainly cant be trusted to operate a boat or an airplane.
How can the person on the No Fly list be trusted around chemicals like ammonium nitrate which is used for bombs. So anyone on the No Fly list shouldnt be allowed in fertilizer and farm stores.
Hardware stores should be off limits as well because of claw hammers bolt cutters box cutters saws wire cutters knives in fact an endless list of potential weapons.
Supermarkets have to be banned from access as well because common household cleaners containing bleach and ammonia can be combined into a poison gas.
They need to be banned from sporting goods stores because of baseball bats and other weapon sources. That would also include pepper spray tasers and any self defense device that could be used offensively.
If someone is on the No Fly list they might be smart enough to use the internet. And that gives them endless access to terrorist weapons making tactics history research improvised explosives and access to terrorist groups. So anyone on the list should be banned from the internet.
If they are banned from the internet then shouldnt they have their computers confiscated and their photos posted anywhere they may have access to public computers like libraries for example?
We all know alcohol impairs judgement. I think anyone on the No Fly list should also be on a No Drink list. All alcohol should be confiscated and their names added to a bar background list of prohibited persons. Medical marijuana is definitely out.
If someone is dangerous enough to be on the No Fly list should they even be allowed to mix with the general public? Perhaps house arrest or jail is the remedy? Can we really trust that someone on the No Fly list can really be trusted with anything at all? Isnt that why we have such a list?
Isnt it the height of irresponsibility and criminal negligence for the Democrat Party to insist that anyone on the No Fly list be banned only from purchasing a gun and completely absent on all these other potential life threatening and terrorist opportunities? What are they thinking? So unless the No Fly list also includes: no private airplanes busses trains boats ships cabs Uber Lyft driving chemicals cars trucks fertilizer farm stores hardware stores supermarkets sporting goods stores the internet computers libraries alcohol bars public places marijuana and includes preventive detention then why even have a No Fly list? Perhaps it is the No Fly list itself that we should be investigating? Both the NRA and the ACLU oppose the suppression of constitutional rights and due process inherent in such a list. Perhaps it is as we all know yet another backhanded way to take guns from civilian ownership while the government stockpiles guns and ammunition militarizes bureaucrats and creates armed forces within agencies that have no business or reason to be armed. And history has taught us this trend is never a good thing.
