6. More people in love with Bush/Cheney generated lists that skips due process?

I wonder how many of the folks applauding using the Bush/Cheney list to stop firearm purchases will object to using it to block voting and travel under "President Trump"?

The "Terrah Watch list" was started by Cheney and Bush and included such threats to our safety and way of life as Edward Kennedy, (similar name blocked him from boarding a flight at Logan).

No way of knowing who is on the list, how you got there, no way of having your name removed.

The same list that was abhorrent under Bush is suddenly beloved because they think they can use it to hamper gun purchases.

Nothing like selective moral outrage.
