Jeh Johnson: Gun Control Is Now 'Part and Parcel of Homeland Security'
Washington Free Beacon ^ | June 14, 2016 | David Rutz

Posted on 06/14/2016 9:04:51 AM PDT by Zakeet

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said Tuesday that passing gun control laws is now "part and parcel of homeland security" in an interview on CBS This Morning.

In the segment which was flagged by Politico, Johnson said this was the first time he had vocalized such a belief publicly. President Obama and congressional Democrats have made a renewed push for gun control laws in the wake of the Orlando terrorist attack on a gay nightclub that left 49 people dead.

So he is saying that his department is declaring war on the American people.

Is that what we’re paying him for?

A major government official publically announcing a policy to abrogate the rights of free American citizens. Rights that are affirmed by the Bill of Rights no less.

Tell me why we should not already be in a shooting war with these people.

It was George W. Bush that created this monster of an Department...that has been worse than useless in its so-called mission. And now it has been turned into yet another leftist tool in the effort to turn us into Europe.

FU Bush...for the millionth time I am reminded what an unmitigated disaster you were as president.

The ‘Peter Principal’ is alive and well. We failed with our efforts so give me more power.

Jeh Johnson: Is it too much to ask that you just do your job and STFU about your appalling ignorance about the 2nd amendment?

Let’s all pause for a moment and say....

THANK YOU, GEORGE W. BUSH!

(big /s obviously)

When you created the Orwellian term “homeland security” and this massive, leviathan bureaucracy, you KNEW that one day it would fall into the hands of Leftist Democrats.

Need we remind “Jeh,” whatever the hell that is, that the biggest terrorist attack in U.S. history, both in terms of loss of life and property damage, was committed without the use of One. Single. Firearm.

I just started re-reading the first book in the trilogy because I was reminded of the stadium massacre in the story.
