Reps. Nita Lowey (D-NY) and David Price (D-NC) offered an amendment to the Commerce, Justice, Science (CJS) Appropriations bill that would have given the U.S. Department of Justice authority to block suspected terrorists from purchasing firearms and explosives.
"Terrorists are knowingly exploiting our laws," Lowey said, citing American-born al Qaeda spokesman Adam Gadahn.
The amendment was defeated in the House Appropriations Committee by a 19-29 vote.
"Americans expect our government to keep guns out of the hands of felons, domestic abusers, the mentally ill, and terrorists," Lowey said in a statement. "A suspected terrorist cannot board a plane but can pass a background check to buy a gun. It is absurd that my Republican colleagues opposed our amendment to close this dangerous gap in our gun safety laws."
Similar legislation has been proposed - and defeated - before. The National Rifle Association claimed in 2011 such proposals were "aimed primarily at law-abiding American gun owners" and "sponsored by gun control extremists."

If our terror trained police and federal officers aren't allowed the means to inflict terror and violence, then how the hell are they to deliver us to the NWO, the Global Police State? Their dream of a new tomorrow? Hopefully better than the Disney version, but a terrorist has gotta start somewhere don't they? If they can't dream it up, then we'll strip that personality and insert it for them and see if they aren't dancing to the new tune very soon.
C'mon everyone sing: "Tomorrow, tomorrow, there's always tomorrow, tomorrow's a day away!"
Vote for a Better Tomorrow, free guns and glutten for everyone!
