In world news (America), it would be a breach of an American's constitutional rights to be refused the sale of an assault rifle just because they were under investigation by the FBI for suspected terrorism.

Aside from the whole "everyone having access to assault weapons and concealed carry handguns being utterly fucking stupid" argument, this is exactly as it should be - not being afforded your rights on the basis of unchecked arbitrary shitlists is about as unconstitutional as it gets.

I get that, it just seems absurd that someone on a no-fly list would be allowed to buy an assault rifle.
