The No-Fly list is just another big joke, I have a freind that had a 1 year old daughter that wanted to see her grandparents so they was going to fly from DFW to her grandparents well when they got to the airport the 1 year old's name was on the NO-Fly list and it took them 3 years to get it removed at a very costly and time consuming expense, so tell me how does a child get their name on a no-fly list when they have never been out of the country and their parents isnt on the list.

You brought up a good point about losing the entire BoR, not just the 2nd, but I extrapolate it a bit farther...


If you take away ANY of the 10 in the BoR, you essentially nullify the entire Constitution, IMNSHO. The BoR was required to be added before the Constitution was ratified. Without the BoR, the Constitution would never have been accepted or implemented. It was essentially the framers' admission that they left some things out they should have put in. You can't take away a particular Article, and you can't take away one of the BoR, either. Anyone who wants to remove one of the Original 10 is an enemy of the Constitution of the United States.

Seriously, if some people in this country want to do away with the Constitution and start over, then we should put it to a vote - and I guarantee when the new Documents are forged, there won't be 50 states in the Union. And I'll be heading to one that supports the intent and spirit of the one we have now.

Couldn't have said it better, TR!

The no-fly list is a joke. I know a guy who was a sergeant in the Air Force, with deployments under his belt, by the name of Martinez who was on the no-fly list.
