Eric Holder co-signed the amicus brief in support of DC's ban on the use of any firearm for self-defense in the home.
Our future chief law enforcement official?
From 2007, but important to note now.

...former U.S. Deputy Attorney General Eric Holder said weakening the gun law "opens the door to more people having more access to guns and putting guns on the streets." So, what's your point?........................ An armed society is a polite society....Robert Heinlein..........

Tough Fecal Matter, you jackasses. It enables people to defend themselves, their families, and their property. What a bunch of ignorant putzes!

"As an FFL I can only imagine what the ATF is going to be like for the next for years."I certainly don't envy you one bit, knowing what's coming. You guys better make sure every i is dotted and every t is crossed on any and all paperwork dealing with firearms. I'm glad you guys are out there.
BTW, how long is it taking to get brand new AR15s these days? I've been hearing that it's taking several weeks.

Earth to incoming AG Holder: Guns have always been on the street, and will continue to be on the street no matter how many laws are passed banning them.
Criminals know how to get guns, legally or otherwise.
Law-abiding citizens, on the other hand, look to the government to protect their precious 2nd Amendment rights to defend themselves and their property against criminals.
Do your job, Mr. Holder, and stand up for the good citizens of this country!
Don't stand in the way of the Bill of Rights!

To these puke liberals, the Constitution is just a piece of paper that gets in their way to control the people.
They're Nazi's and they want what Hitler wanted.

***overturned a gun-control law by declaring that the Second Amendment grants a person the right to possess firearms.***
No no no no, it doesn't work like that!
The Founding Fathers recognized that there was a pre-existing right and duty to have arms for defense, with no questions asked. The Second Amendment is a natural right, not something granted to us by government.

The area where the President of the United States lives now has less restrictive firearms laws than where I live.

I heard on FOX news that Washington D.C. has the highest ratio of citizen to cop in the country - one cop for every 58 citizens.
Perhaps if they allowed their citizens to have guns - even a few - the need for so many dollar consuming cops would drop!!

I heard on FOX news that Washington D.C. has the highest ratio of citizen to cop in the country - one cop for every 58 citizens. I wonder if they're counting just DC cops, or the myriad of officers from the Federal alphabet agencies who seem to spend half their time messing up traffic in the District?

Now you know this is hog wash. Holder fully supports pointing guns at children. I saw the picture. Really I did!
