Should those who oppose TSA excesses be ‘prohibited persons’ for gun ownership?

Hagmann’s information, if confirmed, presents a new danger in light of the government‘s predilection for blacklists, and the stated goal of the anti-freedom camp to use those lists to prohibit gun purchases. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner column looks at yet another potential for discouraging those pesky, presumptuous protesters who dare challenge the lawgivers.

Share the link? That is, if you don't think it will make your name end up on some list?

Too bad that "extremism" allegedly perpetrated by a citizen objecting to violations of their rights is now a tool used by our "masters" to relieve us of even more rights.

Doesn't matter to me if the memo actually went out or not; we know it's their attitude anyway. Someone seeing a hard copy WOULD help wake up the Slumbering Herd, though. Or else one day, people will be arrested and "disappeared" for balking at those machines at the train and bus station, the mall, movie theaters, HOSPITALS...
I know people are as tired of me referencing the Nazis as I am of having to do it, but... remember, evading THEIR tender checkpoint ministrations meant execution then and there. There was a war on then, too.
We know our government-employed neighbors are capable of it.
Of course any checkpoint is worth squat if a team of terrorists comes armed, shoots those running the machines and doing the patdowns and the few airport police who protect them, grabs a pilot out of the lounge or the corridor and storms down a jetway. Then they have a plane anyway. I'd hate to think that would happen, but you know it's occurred to them.
No, this isn't about preventing another 9/11. It's about dumbing liberty down. Argument of tyrants, creed of slaves.
