An enemy combatant is captured by the military engaged in warfare. Any US citizen enemy combatants have been transferred to the United States. Enemy combatants receive a trial.
There is no relationship, none at all, to being put into a terrorism database.
I am engaging in no double standard at all. In fact, you have no idea what you are talking about because you are bringing up two completely different things and saying they are the same.
Habeas corpus (/ˈheɪbiəs ˈkɔːrpəs/; is a legal action or writ by means of which people can seek relief from cruel imprisonment. The Suspension Clause of the United States Constitution specifically included the English common law procedure in Article One, Section 9, clause 2, which demands that "The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it."

they did not pass a gun bill because not 1 of them was a total bill that made sense.
Other reason is our politicians are too divided by ideology to work together and get a bill that makes sense passed.

not only does it fail in it's objective, it's created violence & gangs & poverty while filling our jails and bogging down our courts
another great example of bureaucracy at it's finest
In Switzerland almost everyone from 20-34 is required to have an automatic firearm, which is more deadly than anything you can legally own in America, in their homes, yet their gun homicide rate is lower than ours.
In Israel, all able bodied people are required to give 2 years of military service and they can take those military grade weapons home with them at the end of the night, yet their gun homicide rate is lower than ours.
The problem in America isn't guns, it's culture.
Two writers at Slate came out against this. Even Gawker came out against this, and Kevin Drum at Mother Jones came out against this.
When the FBI Director, the NRA, ACLU, Gawker, Slate, and Mother Jones all agree on something, maybe you should ask yourself if it really is a good idea you're supporting.
