    “Are you now or have you ever been in a terrorist organization”

    They’d never think to lie right? Like, that’d be illegal something terrorists are very concerned about, and yet for some reason that question is on immigration, security clearance and gun sale background checks.

    I’m quite sure there’s a heightened background investigation for immigrants, but I like to make fun of the existence of that question.

      Wildly speculating but… Having been a member of a terrorist organization may not itself be illegal. But submitting false sworn statements could be.

        Well submitting false sworn statements definitely is illegal so you may have a point. Especially since it includes the “have you ever” part, instead of just currently.

      Probably end up with a lot of dumb fucks going “Hell Yeah I am, Brother! Trump 2024!”

      So… you may think it’s stupid, and lets be honest, anyone who answers "yes’ is pretty freaking stupid.

      but there are plenty of absolutely dumb-as-shit people. Why not leave it in there and let some of them sort themselves out.
