With the terror watch list and the no-fly list we have no way of knowing if we are on them, or ow we get on them, and it's extremely difficult to get removed from them. If they want to make these lists part of the NICS background check system it should be a quick cross reference and alert for a possible re-evaluation of the buyer for possible terror ties. No rights denied, no rights delayed, the buyer who has not been convicted of any disqualifying crimes should be allowed to purchase their firearm and go on about their business.

Additionally should these lists actually be used to control who purchases a firearm then we MUST have a codified system which starts off from a clean slate that by law provides:
1. Notification of being added to list
2. The ability to check your own status
3, Judicial oversight (read warrant required to add a person to the list)
4. A path to correct errors along with a process to that the person on the list knows exactly why they were denied a RIGHT and added to the list.
5. A system similar to the uPIN process in NICS so that a gun buyer can avoid wrongful denials/delays.

Think of it as being something akin to your credit report, no secret lists, no secret processes, and no unchecked and unbalanced denial of rights.

Note: I do not support the system I described above, I list it as the minimum standard that Americans should accept and even then we must acknowledge that this type system will be abused. Also once we add such a measure it will NEVER go away so we have to fight it off as best we can.

Enforce existing gun laws: How about prosecuting a certain attorney general and others involved in the "Fast & Furious" scandal.

As for the no-fly/Terror/other list: No prohibition but if they want to set up a process to investigate/monitor someone on one or more of those lists when they purchase a firearm that may be acceptable depending on how it is implemented.

As for the Assault Weapons Ban: No, No, and No. At one time lever actions were considered too dangerous for sale to the public, now it's firearms that are more ergonomically correct than others.
