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."

They now view members of this government as a fifth column You're probably not going to like the next one much either. Either it will be significantly worse, or a whole heck of a lot worse.

I read the story at that Lubbock link. Man oh man that was sure a clusterf*ck in the extreme. No match to any of his guns and no sign he even fired any of his guns. At the least he was released with no charges...the home owner that is.
I don't know what the follow-up was, but that ol' boy should be livin' large off the city after that hog shoot.

He (Mueller) says with his grandchildren going to college, he hopes "those campuses will be weapons-free." I wonder what grandpa would be saying if his grandkids were on the campus of Virginia Tech on April 16, 2007 ?
14 1/2 months ago and he has forgotten all about it?
He needs a brain scan his memory chip is fried!

Here's a fact for you, Mueller, you incompetent control freak:
weaponsgovernments harm people, and more often than not they harm the people carrying themwhose rights they were established to protect.

Mueller, Mueller, Mueller. . .Aren't you the same Robert Mueller who wouldn't listen to Colleen Rowley--then tried to stab her in the back for being a whistleblower trying to stop the deadliest terrorist attack on U.S. soil in our history. . . .
Don't hope that your children's campuses will be weapons-free--
Virginia Tech was weapons-free, moron.
You say weapons hurt people? Why haven't we banned the cars which kill 50,000 of us a year? Are you wussy Woody Allen menaced by your toaster?
The average homeowner has murdered fewer citizens than Lon Horiuchi, Bob-O.
Why couldn't you bozos get Ted Kaczynski in seventeen years?
Why did you fixate on Jewel (and for that matter Hatfill)?
Why did you cover up TWA 800?
Why did you not act on CI Howe's tip and hit Elohim City--why do you continue to cover the tracks of Strassmeier and the Iraqi?
Did your oath exempt you from preserving, protecting and defending the parts of the Constitution you don't like?
Got any more Robert Philip Hanssens in your agency, Bob.
This is it? This is the big leagues? A citizen calls 911 and after routing through all the levels of law enforcement we get a castrati falsetto a la Tiny Tim tip toe through the campus because there's nobody lawabiding to protect you?

Mueller believes that only trained government agents should have access to deadly firearms.

Mueller is responsible for the FBI courting Islamists like CAIR and PC and diversity rules that has permitted the FBI to be infiltrated.
He is a loser.

In Saddam Hussein’s Iraq, only trained government agents had access to deadly firearms.
In Robert Mugabe’s Zimbabwe, I would guess that only government agents have access to deadly firearms.

This is exactly what I would expect from Mueller.
He’s always been a thug. That’s why Bush appointed him.
