3. Simple solution, just open the super secret "Bush/Cheney Terrah Watch List" to due process

I'm not saying print it on the front page of the morning NY Times, but for interested parties just make due process available.

If your name appears on the list, just provide the basic due process rights you are entitled to as a citizen, to correct misspelled names, mistaken identity (a la Ted Kennedy and others) or other issues. Provide a way to get off the list and at the same time explain how you got on the list, in general terms.

If your name is on the list for good reason (FBI, NSA, CIA etc. watch list for good cause) fine, ban their ability to fly, rent a car, buy a gun, vote, et. al.

Why is that such a complex thing for people to grasp?

If you do, that cuts away any and all support the NRA and ACLU has for using the list.

Just funny how many supposed progressives suddenly love the secret list created by Bush/Cheney when it's applied to Gunz?
