I think the main takeaway is "due process". If you're on the terror list, or the no fly list, there is no trial, you're simply deprived of some rights you used to have, with no recourse. I've had to deal with the DMV, and you get sent to many confusing places and have to spend many hours trying to extricate yourself from them. With gun control, it's the same thing. "The list is a state secret". They won't tell you how you got on it, and won't tell you how to get off, and there's no due process where you can plead your case in court. The fact that you have to fight a Kafka-esque bureau to acquit yourself of something you've never been convicted of should raise the hackles of everybody involved.
