While the shooting at Connecticuts Sandy Hook Elementary School has prompted a national gun control debate, President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder will still push to allow immigrants to purchase firearms more easily.
Normally, the Department of Justices Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) requires legal aliens to live in a state for 90 days before buying a gun. The ATF does this through a rule attached to the Gun Control Act of 1968.
In June, Holders DOJ proposed to eliminate that 90-day residency requirement rule.
This rule would finalize the interim final rule published on June 7, 2012 by removing the 90-day State residency requirement for aliens lawfully present in the United States to purchase or acquire a firearm, the proposal to eliminate that requirement reads in part. The Department has determined that the Gun Control Act does not permit ATF to impose a regulatory requirement that aliens lawfully present in the United States are subject to a 90-day State residency requirement when such a requirement is not applicable to U.S. citizens.
The move to allow aliens easier access to firearms is now in its final stages.
The new rule is expected to reach its final stages in April 2013. That means it will either pass or be discarded.

At this point it has to be pretty clear what Obama’s vision of the United States is, for the future.
It is crystal clear that his rainbow doesn’t include the color white.
Leftists are hypocrites.
This isn’t fair to the ILLEGAL immigrants! They should be given free guns and ammo. Let’s call them “Obamaguns”. /s
“Friends of Obama”
Certainly with allegiance to Obama, and none to this country. These will be more of the regime’s flying monkeys.
Where does the 2nd Amendment mention hunting and fishing?
You have got to be kidding?!? Americans....the legal ones who make this country run...need to rise up and burn Washington DC to the ground. There is no fixing that wretched hive of scum and villainy. The antics of uber-racists Obama and Holder were almost comical until now.
Washington D.C. == Mos Eisley Spaceport
How many of these “legal” immigrants have fake ID?
>>Washington D.C. == Mos Eisley Spaceport
:-)
There’s just no better way to describe it.
INTERVIEW WITH DHS INSIDER
"They, I mean Jarrett and Obama as well as a few others in government, are working to create a perfect storm too. This is being timed to coincide with new gun laws."

“Legal Immigrants” = Muslims
Arming all the Somalis and other muslims he is importing
Cynical game to be sure. BUT if this is talking about people who are visiting and obeying the rules, and who were not serious criminals before doing so, then I find it hard to muster more than a “meh” at this.
Reconquista???
I makes one wonder how long an American has to reside in a State before purchasing a weapon. I can’t go to a neighboring State and buy a handgun because I don’t live in that State.
Probably wanting to get his future bullyboys good at handling guns.
