And what, praytell, Mr. Holder, is a “government militia?” A militia is, by definition if I recall correctly, a group of citizens who arm themselves and are ready to defend their land/country. The Minutemen were a MILITIA. Governments have ARMIES.

This piece of crap needs to be stopped at all costs and any Republican who votes for his confirmation should be targeted for defeat in their next election cycle.

Re: “militia”

People in the 1700’s and 1800’s USA did not have:

-One gun a month limits on purchases

-NICS background checks

-CCW cards

-Require ID for ammo purchases

The notion that the 2nd A is limited to “militias” is a specious one by the left. There were no limitations on ownership of firearms until the late 19th Century.

That is a little fact that libs conveniently forget.

Any Republican who votes for Holder needs to be recalled. Why wait?
