2016 just keeps getting weirder. After Donald Trump caved on gun rights and indicated support for restricting ownership base on the federal government’s various terror watch lists, the NRA has also seemingly given in on the right to due process. That alone is enough to make the situation bizarre, but the fact that the American Civil Liberties Union still opposes such a measure pertaining to guns is quite stunning.

“There is no constitutional bar to reasonable regulation of guns, and the No Fly List could serve as one tool for it, but only with major reform,” ACLU National Security Project director Hina Shamsi said. “The standards for inclusion on the No Fly List are unconstitutionally vague, and innocent people are blacklisted without a fair process to correct government error.”

The ACLU is not taking a strong Second Amendment stance by any stretch of the imagination, but it is taking a strong Fifth Amendment stand to protect potential gun owners’ right to due process of law. Compare that stance to the rather troubling statement released by the NRA yesterday:

“Anyone on a terror watchlist who tries to buy a gun should be thoroughly investigated by the FBI and the sale delayed while the investigation is ongoing. If an investigation uncovers evidence of terrorist activity or involvement, the government should be allowed to immediately go to court, block the sale, and arrest the terrorist.”
