From 2004 to 2014, over 2,000 terror suspects legally purchased guns in the United States

The point re being against the bill because an innocent on the terrorist could be refused a buy has in itself some legitimacy (it's still a furphy in the big picture) but that doesn't offer the NRA's et al opposition to the bill any reasonableness. In fact if such a bill were passed and one was refused a gun buy that person could question their name being on the list, so seems to me such a bill being passed could help to get innocents off the list. That seems at least a mini reason why some civil liberty people could support one.
The NRA's opposition talking points are virtually 100% the same whatever the particular the discussion is about.
