I've been anticipating that some senator (Thune, perhaps) will offer an amendment for national concealed carry reciprocity to a big, "must-pass" bill.  I am just sort of wondering aloud if this could be the one.  White House has said it won't veto the measure ...

No this is the National Defense Bill, aka national security. The controversy is the new bill allows the military to arrest any citizens without due process, and right to a trial. And all they need is an excuse that the person is a "security risk"

Correct, and it's expected to pass, Obama won't veto it.  So, it's a perfect vehicle to tie national reciprocity to.  Will be interesting to watch.

The Roman Empire fell due to a large, corrupt government, overspending, an overextended military, insecure borders, and the illegal immigration of Goths, barbarians (anyone who was not educated), and religious fanatics. Sound familiar?

According to Rand Paul, and Stewart Rhodes, this NDAA bill is very bad news. I've not had the time to read through it all myself, but they bring up some interesting arguments.

Seven days worth of food?  Watertight ammo storage?  Who comes up with this stuff?  I can't understand how people who think they're so smart, could really be so very, very stupid.

This bill is so bad I wouldn't take it in exchange for national RTC. It takes walking on our rights to an entire new level.

Senator Rand Paul has a brain. I wonder what the other Congresscritters problem is?

I think this will bring back the idea of communist name calling.

That is just the type of bill he tried to attach it to 2 years ago.  It failed by 2 votes but I think they are there in the Senate now.

"The Obama administration: Erasing the line between satire and reality since January 20, 2009″

When the 2006 losses first happened, I heard a lot of GOPers say, "Good! A couple of terms of Democrats in power, and they'll overreach! Then we can pick up the pieces." I thought that's stupid; it's like burning down the house so you can remodel with the insurance money. Well, willy-nilly, the structure's definitely ablaze, a 5-alarm barnburner. Those GOPers who wanted total destruction have almost got what they want. I for one just hope we still have something to repair and rebuild once the flames are out. Six years of democratic centralism is an ugly thing to contemplate.

Paul was backed by Senator Dianne Feinstein.

"Congress is essentially authorising the indefinite imprisonment of American citizens, without charge," she said. "We are not a nation that locks up its citizens without charge."

Paul said there were already strong laws against support for terrorist groups. He noted that the definition of a terrorism suspect under existing legislation was so broad that millions of Americans could fall within it.

"There are laws on the books now that characterise who might be a terrorist: someone missing fingers on their hands is a suspect according to the department of justice. Someone who has guns, someone who has ammunition that is weatherproofed, someone who has more than seven days of food in their house can be considered a potential terrorist," Paul said. "If you are suspected because of these activities, do you want the government to have the ability to send you to Guantánamo Bay for indefinite detention?"

Under the legislation suspects can be held without trial "until the end of hostilities". They will have the right to appear once a year before a committee that will decide if the detention will continue.

The Federal government has NO AUTHORITY to pass a bill like this.

You can tie an amendment to this bill that overturns every gun law on the books, and I will not support it.

By the way... Although I disagree with nearly everything Durbin does, he's coming down on the right side of this one. He (or his staff) wrote, in part:

" We must not allow the depravity of our enemies to cause us to abandon our nation’s most fundamental values. Indefinite detention without recourse to legal proceedings is inconsistent with the principles of liberty and the rule of law that underpin our democracy.

Recognizing this, the Senate agreed on a compromise amendment, introduced by Senator Dianne Feinstein of California, that clarifies the language on detainees, excluding United States citizens, lawful resident aliens, and anyone captured or arrested in the United Sates. "
...
"The Senate and House are currently reconciling the differences between the two versions of the NDAA."

Congress has authority to pass any bill it wants. Whether or not it is constitutional is another question for our friends in black robes.

I agree, though. I wouldn't want RTC reciprocity attached to this bill, purely on the principle of the matter. No matter how much we want it, I for one am not willing to sacrifice one freedom for another.

By the way... Although I disagree with nearly everything Durbin does, he's coming down on the right side of this one. He (or his staff) wrote, in part:

" We must not allow the depravity of our enemies to cause us to abandon our nation's most fundamental values. Indefinite detention without recourse to legal proceedings is inconsistent with the principles of liberty and the rule of law that underpin our democracy.

Recognizing this, the Senate agreed on a compromise amendment, introduced by Senator Dianne Feinstein of California, that clarifies the language on detainees, excluding United States citizens, lawful resident aliens, and anyone captured or arrested in the United Sates. "
...
"The Senate and House are currently reconciling the differences between the two versions of the NDAA."

(emphasis added).




So what does this mean?   Have we had a case of chicken little syndrome when all along it hasn't applied to US citizens?  Because  if it is true that it does not apply to us  and only applies to POW's then  I'm not apposed at all.  It would merely make formal what we have been doing all along.

I think that Lou is the only person who understood the point of my post.

But anyway ... carry on.

Sorry - I meant no disrespect, GF.

I can split the posts that dont directly relate to the reciprocity into another thread if you'd like. ..be more than happy to.


ETA: I think I now see your point. Reciprocity would draw an obama veto?

From your link  


There is a great deal of confusion about this bill, with some incorrectly interpreting it as not affecting American citizens. There is also confusion about the very dangerous legal precedents that this bill seeks to codify and bolster


So my question is,  is this why Obama originally vowed to veto it?,   and then

From the text I quoted...............

"Recognizing this, the Senate agreed on a compromise amendment, introduced by Senator Dianne Feinstein of California, that clarifies the language on detainees, excluding United States citizens, lawful resident aliens, and anyone captured or arrested in the United Sates. "


And now that they agreed on an amendment that makes it CLEAR that ANYONE captured or arrested in the US is exempt that he now lifted his veto threat. I can't belive what I'm about to type,  but this may just be the best thing Obama has done his entire time in office.   ( threten to veto the bill in it's original format that is)

Some have said its posturing by Obama, and that he may even sign it anyway.

Its both... US citizens are excluded in one section, but another section has wording that gives the president an "option". Stewart covers that in the link I provided. There's a video there too, if you have broadband.
