After the December shooting in San Bernardino, CA, President Obama stated in his weekly radio address that it was “insane” to allow suspected terrorists on the country’s no-fly list to purchase guns. Shortly after, Senate Democrats introduced a measure that would have restricted anyone on the federal terrorism watch list, also known as the no-fly list, from being able to purchase firearms in the U.S. The measure did not pass after Senate Republicans voted down the measure.

No, flying laws should be separate from gun laws.

Depends on why they are on said list.

Depending why they are on the list

Why is said person on the list?

No, and free Nick Fuentes!
Deleted3yrs3Y
No, and I don’t trust this administration’s definition of who a terrorist is.
@8Z65MKR3yrs3Y
they should not be banned but they should be checked way more than the every day citizen

@8P6PWZP4yrs4Y
Yes, but only if they are a convicted felon.
@8P6PWZP4yrs4Y
No, and full-auto machine guns should be legal.
@8NYT9XV4yrs4Y
No but it depends what reason they are on the no fly list
@8TCG4TJ4yrs4Y
@8H4DF7B4yrs4Y
Only if the person has a psychological condition other than anxiety, depression, or OCD and/or if they have committed a violent crime. And improve accuracy and include due process
@heatherdvdprincess3yrs3Y
No. The no-fly list does not only include violent people. There have been people put on the no-fly list simply for being Christian missionaries. It is worked out later by lawyers, but the fact that this happens shows that making no-fly equal no-gun expands opportunity for discrimination.
@7W3SBDC4yrs4Y
Yes, if you are deemed too dangerous to fly, you are too dangerous to own a firearm.
@7PTCG383yrs3Y
Yes, but strengthen and ensure that the no-fly list screening process includes due process
@7PTCG384yrs4Y
Yes, but continue to improve the no-fly list screening process for accuracy and include due process.
@7PTCG384yrs4Y
Yes, but continue to make adjustments to the no-fly screening process for improved accuracy and include due process
@7PTCG384yrs4Y
Yes, but continue to improve the no-fly list screening process for accuracy and include due process
@7PTCG384yrs4Y
Yes, but continue to make adjustments to the no-fly screening process for improved accuracy and include due process.
@7PTCG384yrs4Y
Yes, but include due process and continue to improve the no-fly screening process for accuracy
@7PTCG384yrs4Y
Yes, but include due process and continue to improve the no-fly list screening process for accuracy
@7PTCG385yrs5Y
Yes, but prioritize improving the list screening process for accuracy and make sure that due process is included for both those added to the list and already on the list.
@8FPLGKD4yrs4Y
Yes, but the "no-fly list" should first be amended to include due process and fair trial.
@8JG6P8B4yrs4Y
They should have to go through a whole process and tests to get a gun and ammunition if they're on the "no-fly list".
@8L3W9MQ4yrs4Y
I believe just because they cant fly doesnt mean they cant buy guns.
@8LGDJZH4yrs4Y
I think that guns should be illegal for citizens to own.
@8PMF46F4yrs4Y
Depends on the gun and depends on the reason a person would be on a no-fly list. This is a case-by-case circumstance for the courts to decide.
@8PHSP7Y4yrs4Y
Yes, but allow an appeals process
@8TQ6P9Q4yrs4Y
Dont support the no fly list generally
@8TWB9FX4yrs4Y
Yes, but the no-fly list screening process should be improved for accuracy and includes due process. Also, if the government considers you too dangerous to board a plane you should not be able to buy a gun.
@8WMXBZM3yrs3Y
yes unless its for a weird reason you can be on no fly list today for not real reasioning
@8Y2PZNR3yrs3Y
No, because they may not be on a no-fly-list for something that might relate to them using a gun for crime
@93DHP4B3yrs3Y
Yes, if inclusion on a no fly list is through due process.
