Holder is a lying punk! Those weapons are not coming from the US. They are coming from all over central and south America.
Hell...Chavez built an AK plant in Venezuela and has already said he was going to spread those weapons in Latin America to “help” the people.
Why is it OUR job to reduce the bloodshed in that sewer called Mexico? If the @$$holes at the border would do their job, guns wouldn’t be taken into Mexico. We’re already spending a fortune trying to handle Mexico’s poverty problem, I don’t think our Second Amendment rights should be trampled to stop THEIR bloodshed problem.
Yes something definitely stinks about all this.
Obama will seek these 4 elements in a gun bill
1. An expanded HR 45, gun owner licensing. All gun owners will have to have these licenses, even owners of facilimie weapons (AKA Airsoft and BB). Licenses will only be granted if the records of the applicant are clean (This includes misdemeanors from decades ago). Licensees will be required to hold $1 million in liability insurance. Possession of otherwise permitted weapons (See #3) without license is a felony.
2. Ammunition accountability... All ammo will be required to be microstamped and will be taxed $1/round. All non stamped ammo will be required to be turned in or thrown away. Possession of non-marked ammo is a felony. This part of the act also bans “Cop Killer” bullets.
3. Expanded “Assault Weapons” ban— This includes most all semiauto rifles, anything that can be “Bump Fired”, Semiauto handguns, and Semi-auto shotguns. It also includes pump-action shotguns and “Sniper Rifles” AKA your deer rifle. The AWB will also require people with “Prebans” to register their guns as Machine Guns, and that the tax stamp will go up to $10,000 per weapon, or turn it in without compensation...
4. Expansion of the Lautenbach amendment: Removes “Domestic Violence” as disqualifier to gun ownership, inserts any misdemeanor as disqualifer... Anyone with a misdemeanor on their record will be prohibited from owning a firearm. This includes DUI and traffic offenses, and offenses decades ago.
There you have it in a nutshell...
Holder is an idiot and not fit to hold the position he is in.
Also, if a ban is instituted, I’m cutting the Government off. No more guns for them from my company...

Yeah. Sure... Banning assault weapons HERE will do a LOT to help curb the violence in Mexico... /sarcasm
The Leftist agenda has always included the total disarmament of Americans as a prelude to further encroachments on civil liberties and the eventual imposition of a Marxist regime. They’re determined to succeed bit by inexorable bit, utilizing specious reasoning and outright lies.
Some reason Mexicans couldn’t buy FAL rifles or whatever Imbel is making these days in Brazil??
Is there something wrong with Holder’s memory? AWBI, along with Hillary Care led to the congressional elections of 1994, making it the most memorable Phyrric political victory in recent times.
Maybe Holder just isn’t that political. But it’s for sure the folks who picked him out are. Right about now they are probably shoving a rolled up gym sock in his mouth and putting duct tape over it.
I don’t think this guy is anything but a front guy for Obama Justice. Somebody without Senate approval will be pulling his strings in the background, just like Holder did with Janet Reno. The real players in this administration won’t have fancy titles like USAG.
Mexico, the last time I looked, is in MEXICO. Regulate the damned BORDER! For heaven’s sake! Not guns!
It’s striking that Holder’s verbiage betrays gross ignorance of the subject. “Cop killer bullets”? he doesn’t know what the hell he’s talking about - and that’s really bad for an attorney general.
Using the logic that banning guns in the US will help reduce bloodshed in Mexico ... then banning spoons from Canada will help reduce obesity in the United States.
