Jeb Bush: No-Fly List Not Accurate Enough ‘To Use For Restricting Gun Rights’
Jeb Bush argued that if an individual is being tracked by the FBI, “they shouldn’t be able to get guns…but the no-fly list is a much broader list, it’s not an accurate list to be able to use for restricting gun rights for law abiding citizens.”
Appearing on ABC’s “This Week” with George Stephanopoulos on Sunday, the former governor argued, “If you’re tracking someone who you believe may be a terrorist, of course they shouldn’t get guns. The FBI has that capability right now. Asked by Stephanopoulos if he was “okay” with terror suspects who pledge allegiance to ISIS being able to buy guns, Bush explained, “I don’t think it is appropriate.”“If we’re tracking them and the FBI know that someone is in our country and they are tracking them, they shouldn’t be able to get guns for sure,” Bush explained.
“But the no fly list is a much broader list, it’s not an accurate list to be able to use for restricting gun rights for law abiding citizens.”

So, it's too much of a risk to allow this person, after going thru a metal detector and a security screening, to get on an airliner. But, letting them buy guns,,,, no big deal.
There is something wrong here.
I guess it's no mystery why no one likes Jeb.
