FBI Chief Unhappy With Supreme Court Ruling
kwtx.com ^ | July 1, 2008 | NA

The director of the FBI is not happy with the Supreme Court's recent handgun ruling.

Robert Mueller says he tends to believe that "weapons harm people, and more often than not they harm the people carrying them."

Mueller said the high court's decision, which threw out a handgun ban in Washington, D.C., "does throw a lot of things up in the air."

Mueller said communities will now have to decide their own licensing programs.

Mueller was speaking at a convention of the International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators in Hartford, Connecticut.

He says with his grandchildren going to college, he hopes "those campuses will be weapons-free."

Grazed him...

Richard Robinson spent over a week in the hospital with his multiple-shot injuries. Last I heard he still had a bullet in his gut.

I shudder to think how this would’ve turned out if Myers was on the bench.

Ann Coulter was right! (Thank you, Ann!)

Of course!

All the globalists in high positions hate the serfs having weapons. They are expected to go to the death camps meekly and silently.

See GEORGIA GUIDESTONES for a cryptic santized wording of their global goals:

He had to be chosen as a globalist else he’d never have gotten the slot.

OR

He was informed of the dance he had to do in the job if he wanted to keep the job or keep living.

Heard this on AM news, funny stuff.

I'll wait here while the Federal Bureau of Investigation divests itself of the firearms in its collective possession, in the interest of agent safety.

Yet this moron can’t be bothered to look at the figures compiled by his own organization before he opens his big mouth.

Makes you wonder how reliable they are if he won't consult them...

`Fences, gates and guns for me, but nothing similar for thee.’

I’ve been watching the Tudors, about Henry VIII. Back then `gentlemen’ went armed with swords while the lower classes made do without swords; the nobility also treated them with barely disguised contempt,
like this: Director Muller, thou may kisseth that part of mine that crosses the fence last, contemptible hired hand, knave and villain.

Hadn't really threatened anyone, just wanted to be left alone. In marches the Sturm Troopen, who surround the house and start planning up a dynamic entry.

And that, boys and girls, is where the problem started. Faced with the same situation, I would have dialed the guy up on the phone. If he wouldn't talk, I would have sent a couple of uniforms with good bulltproof vests (and their weapons in their holsters!) to staaple a summons to his door for disorderly conduct. Then, if I still thought that the guy might be likely to come out and cause trouble (even though there appears to be no real evidence of it) I'd post a couple of uniforms there in a squad car, and go grab something to eat. The dude's not going to stay in there for the rest of his life.

Never, never never should a guy burning furniture on a lawn have led to a situation where people were willing to use deadly force against him.

BTW, are you sure about those 1,200 rounds? Seems like a lot even for a cluster like this.

I'm aware the head of the FBI isn't a Constitutional legal scholar - although he probably should be. But at a minimum he should have the ability to read plain English as it is written in the Constitution. That would at least keep him from speaking like a complete idiot on this subject.

On the other hand, based on his Three Stooges approach to his "Anthrax Case", he's not much of an investigator either - and that he should be!

I am torn between the following 3 reactions:

1) Good!

2) Who gives a shiite?

3) He needs to be fired.

One of your agents shoot himself in the foot again, did he Robert?

The purpose of the Bill of Rights is not to make government officials happy. Quite the Contrary in fact. It’s purpose is to limit what they can do, which of course makes them quite unhappy.

The man heading the FBI has a problem with the Constitution. My God, the inmates are in charge of the asylum.

For example, Houston and Dallas don’t have handgun bans.

Mostly because the State Legislature won't let them. And of course because of provision of the Texas Constitution which reads:

Every citizen shall have the right to keep and bear arms in the lawful defense of himself or the State; but the Legislature shall have power, by law, to regulate the wearing of arms, with a view to prevent crime.
Art. I Section 23. Texas Constitution.

Notice only the Legislature has the power to regulate the wearing of arms, not the cities or counties. That makes the big city police chiefs as unhappy as the Second Amendment makes the FBI director, maybe even more unhappy.
