    I'm waiting for some liberal nut to report me for flying the flags I do: US, POW/MIA and Don't Tred on Me. Will add the PA and Army flags once we get the flagpole rigged.

    Where did you get your flagpole and how much did it cost if you don't mind me asking? I'm looking for a pole that can fly two flags and they are all expensive.

    ^^this, according to the DHS all gun owners are potential terrorist.

    Watch lists are only good if they are watched... How many times did the FBI ETAL, investigate and then REMOVE Mateen from their "lists"???

    I smell Dark Ops. And Mateen is looking more and more like the Administration's "wind up toy". :mad54:

    Agree. And I suspect the only reason we haven't all been carted off in the night by now is that the lists haven't been watched.

    You are making me wonder more and more, and I am thinking of changing my flag to a pant suit.
    I'm not watching any news tonight!

    Talking to son in law last night. How hard would it be for FBI to take terror watch list and flag those names in NICS? At least it would cause a delay for someone on the list and they could be looked into further if trying to purchase a firearm. The San Bernardino couple used a 3rd party straw purchase.

    Ours was <$100 from Walmart (Annin pole) and we use 16 of the 20 foot length. No problem w/ 2 flags, though I do take it down in super windy weather.

    Thanks. I've seen those but wasn't sure how it would hold up. Now I know. Online outfits want want an arm and a leg.

    Certainty this would never be abused, I mean they would never, ever, put everyone on a terror watch list except for the leadership cadre of the Demonrat Party, would they?

    They are flagged. The FBI currently receives an alert if someone on the "watch list" buys a gun. What they decide to do about it is on them. In the last 10 years, 2,477 alerts were received by the FBI as a result.

    You're assuming that they're already IN NICS.
