There is a lot of talk of creating an agency to prohibit terrorists on the no fly list from obtaining a gun. A simpler alternative would be to include them in the database that prohibits felons from getting a gun.
The danger with this or any other approach is how could anyone trust Obama or, God forbid, Hillary with the power to control this list?
First of all, all Muslims would still receive special treatment via a hands-off policy from the White House, as evidenced by the recent editing of the 911 call from the Orlando shooter and the group most likely to commit terrorism would still be protected.

However a new list of conservatives and others with opposing views could now be branded as domestic terrorists. High on the list would be Dinish Desouza, members of the NRA, the pro-life movement and individuals who oppose abortion and anyone who believes that marriage should be between a man and a woman, and also those wierdo heterosexuals who believe too much emphasis is placed on LGBT for political reasons.
Visibly absent from this list are black radical groups like the Black Panthers, Black Lives Matter and radical black activists whose lifeblood only starts pumping when they incite racial hatred and division, because without racial chaos they cease to exist.
Also absent are radical groups like MoveOn.org, who organize riots disguised as protests to incite hatred and violence against others choosing to express their freedom of speech.
If you doubt this then you must have been living in a bubble the past seven-plus years.
