Leader Of Dem Sit-in Was On No-Fly List Himself

[rightwinger]

In the rush to take our guns, the hypocrisy by Democrats is glaring. Democrats think that love will protect us from a terrorist attack. Obama just released another terrorist from GITMO, most of which have gone back to terrorism, yet he and the Dems want to use an attack, the cause of which can be directly linked to the White House, as a reason to take away our rights. All of this screaming and yelling over a bill that will not save one single life.



Rep Lewis Was Once On The No-Fly List He Wants To Use To Restrict Gun Rights

Democratic Rep. John Lewis was erroneously put on the no-fly list he now wants to use to restrict gun ownership for U.S. citizens.

Lewis staged a “sit-in” at the House of Representatives Wednesday to call for a law barring people on the federal no-fly list from purchasing guns. But Lewis himself was erroneously put on the list at one point for an entire year, meaning he would have been unable to buy a gun had his new proposal been law.

Several different gun control measures have been circulating in Congress in the wake of Omar Mateen’s June 12 shooting spree at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida. One of the proposals would ban anybody on the federal government’s no-fly list from purchasing a gun. In the House, Lewis has become a champion of such a rule, leading an occupation of the House floor to demand a vote on the measure.




Lewis may view the no-fly list as a good vehicle for stopping terrorists from getting weapons. But terrorists wouldn’t be the only people hindered by Collins’ proposal. In fact, if such a law had existed a decade ago, Lewis himself would have been victimized by it.

Press accounts from 2004 to 2008 reveal that Lewis’ name somehow ended up on the federal no-fly list, and remained there for years despite his best efforts to get it off. In 2004, he claimed he was stopped 35 to 40 times in a single year by airport personnel who tried to keep him from flying. Presumably, if the “no fly, no gun” law had been in place then, Lewis would have had even more trouble buying a gun than he had getting on a plane.

Lewis isn’t the only prominent person to have trouble with the no-fly list, as Sen. Ted Kennedy and singer Cat Stevens also claimed they were mistakenly placed on it. Their experiences illustrate one of the chief criticisms of the no-fly list: That it can limit individual rights while giving individuals very limited power to fight back.

According to the FBI, the current no-fly list has about 81,000 names, although only a few hundred of them are Americans.​

Beyond that, Conservatives accused Lewis of being a communist, a race baiter and agitator

That was before they crushed his skull on the Edmund Pettus bridge in Selma

John Lewis is an American Patriot and still attacked by the right just like 50 years ago

Lewis is the one doing the attacking. He's busy trying to take away our rights this time. Not the other way around.

After 15 mass killings in the last 7 years, Lewis, like all Americans, is sick of Congress refusing to do a thing about it

Let me know when they decide to do a mass suicide with guns they smuggle in.

Your inability to have your fantasy toys does not upset me

We have 2.5 million filling our prisons..
More than any nation on earth

And yet gun related crime has declined while the amount of guns has increased. It's not gun crime that's putting them in prison.


Using federal government data, University of Michigan and American Enterprise Institute economist Mark Perry last year measured the gun homicide rate against the number of guns per person from 1993-2013. As the number of guns per person rose from 0.94 to 1.45, the gun homicide rate fell by 49 percent, from 7 to 3.6 per 100,000 people.

Also using federal government data, the Pew Research Center reported last year that non-fatal gun victimizations have fallen from 725.3 to 174.8 per 100,000 people from 1993-2014. So all gun-related crime is falling, not just gun homicides.

The United States seems to be recovering a large chunk of the civility obliterated in the tumult of the 1960s and ’70s, suggesting (as do global historical data) that human-on-human violence is predominantly a product of culture, not technology. The U.S. homicide rate more than doubled from 1963-1973 and remained high for the next 20 years. In 1973, the rate was 9.4 per 100,000 people; in 1993 it was 9.5. Although we will need more time before we can know for sure, this spike in homicides appears to have been an historical aberration. Since 1993, the homicide rate has collapsed and it now hovers around its 1962-63 level.

In 2014, the homicide rate was 4.5 per 100,000 people, less than half the rate in 1995. The last time it was that low was 1963, when the rate was 4.6. The median age in the United States is 37, so for the average American alive today the odds of being murdered have never been lower — even though Americans possess millions more firearms than they did two decades ago when homicide rates were higher....

America Is Awash In Guns, And Crime Is At Record Lows

Gun related crime has gone down significantly since the 90s
It has gone down in states with strict gun rules and states with lax regulations

It has gone down because the crack wars of the 90s ended. Stop pretending it is because you have more guns

The data prove that more guns haven't increased crime, bub. So, Fuck Off Fascist.

[thereisnospoon]

Please stop referring to AR15s, etc etc as "war weapons" it's dishonest political jargon and does nothing to further the solution to our very obvious problem.

I have FOUR fully automatic assault rifles. NONE of which have ever murdered anyone. PROVING conclusively that weapons are not the problem. The person pulling the trigger is.

PROVING conclusively that weapons are not the problem. The person pulling the trigger is

Came up with that one on your own did ya?

Cars are not a problem, it is the people driving them
Guns don't kill people, it is people with guns that kill people

Just because there is a human element doesn't mean you don't place restrictions on both the human and the object

Logic dictates that you focus on the source of the violence, not some inanimate object.
However, your illogical approach is to drain the oceans because sometimes people drown.

Logic dictates that a gun is a tool a criminal needs to do his job. Separating a criminal from his favorite tool is appropriate

Punishing law abiding citizens as a desperate means to prevent crime is no way to govern.
The real problem is that the punishments for crimes committed with guns are far too light.
We are the only civilized nation that coddles criminals. We give them second, third, fourth and beyond number of chances.

Your inability to have your fantasy toys does not upset me

We have 2.5 million filling our prisons..
More than any nation on earth

And it's silly to believe that prison over crowding is a reason to not punish the evil doers.
Looking at this issue logically, we have far too many people incarcerated for seemingly minor offenses. Heck a person can get ten years in prison for stealing as little as $100 of merchandise. Federal sentencing is more harsh on things like mail fraud and racketeering. I say let those convicts work for the people. Let them build roads, clean parks,. and other menial tasks. Instead let's get the violent criminals, the murderers rapists, child molesters drug king pins, drunk drivers who kill, and of course those that use firearms in the committing of felonies,. Let these people take their place.
We're patting ourselves on the back by incarcerating people out of frustration.
Fantasy toys.? Thanks for using that term. Now you've exposed yourself as a gun grabbing liberal opposed to the ability of law abiding citizens the right to self protection.
Your entire response is invalid.
Like it or not, and you don't, right to keep and bear arms is sacrosanct. It isn't going anywhere. Tough shit

Then perhaps law enforcement and the FBI should have paid more attention to the many warning signs that were reported. And perhaps SJWs should cease attacking people as RACISTS who report suspicious people who are not White Christian Males. PC Intimidation is as much to blame here as Islamofascism.
