Actually I was born and raised there but that isn't why I said CA and NY it's because those 2 states have the highest populations they control the majority votes. My point was both of those states are over taken by Liberals who want to ban firearms if this country was ruled by 51% of the vote that is how it would be. Lucky for the rest of us we have something called the constitution which doesn't allow 51% to have absolute rule.
Lets talk about the no fly list while it sounds like great plan you ban all these guys from buying firearms it won't stop one act of terrorism. First of all again if a person is bent on killing he is going to get someone else to do a straw purchase for him he and his straw purchase friend aren't concerned with breaking any laws because they are going to be meeting Allah soon and it won't matter.
There have been several people who for some reason gotten their name stuck on those no fly lists and found it to be very difficult to get them removed. There is no due process here where people that are denied a firearm due to a conviction they have been though the due process system. We don't need more stupid laws that are going to have zero effect.
Did you read the article? Are you really kicking about the idea that people on the no-fly list should not be allowed to buy guns? I
The same no-fly list which included that dastardly terrorist mastermind Senator Ted Kennedy and various other government officials and members of the military?
In 2004, a Washington-bound United Airlines flight from London was diverted to Maine after officials discovered Yusuf Islam, the singer formerly known as Cat Stevens, was on board. Islam was denied entry into the U.S. and made to return to the U.K.
Did you read the article? Are you really kicking about the idea that people on the no-fly list should not be allowed to buy guns? I realize that Al Qaeda bombed the World Trade center using just utility knives, but I would be far more likely to back down if someone pulled a MAC-10 on me than a box cutter.
The no fly list is another way to deny law abiding citizens their right to own gun. Anyone can be put on the no fly list. You don't even know, you can't find out why or contest why your on the list. You don't have any recourse.
The Obama Derangement Syndrome brigade is at it again, ignoring (or clueless of) the fact that President Obama is issuing executive orders at the lowest rate of anyone since the first Presidency of Grover Cleveland - which ended in 1889.
The issue isn't the number of executive orders. It's their use when Congress has decided consciously is doesn't want a certain field of concern regulated, or regulated the way Obama wants. Issues such as the Iranian "deal," immigration, global warming and guns are areas where Congress has decided not to act. That may be a good, or bad decision but not one warranting executive orders.
Civil rights was different. JFK used executive orders where the ground was covered by Constitutional amendments, some legislation and court decisions.

This is how I picture people who continually pronounce Obama as The Worst President Ever:
