Got this from ABC News
I said a few days ago that this guy was an ASS HAT, he is now proving that.
Wednesday Attorney General Eric Holder said that the Obama administration will seek to reinstitute the assault weapons ban which expired in 2004 during the Bush administration.

It seems that each and every one of his appointed administration goons have an agenda all their own and I think they mirror what The Messiah wants done. Right at this moment they are voting on the so called Fairness Doctrine. And then Holder drops this bomb.
“As President Obama indicated during the campaign, there are just a few gun-related changes that we would like to make, and among them would be to reinstitute the ban on the sale of assault weapons,” Holder told reporters.
Holder said that putting the ban back in place would not only be a positive move by the United States, it would help cut down on the flow of guns going across the border into Mexico, which is struggling with heavy violence among drug cartels along the border.
“I think that will have a positive impact in Mexico, at a minimum.” Holder said at a news conference on the arrest of more than 700 people in a drug enforcement crackdown on Mexican drug cartels operating in the U.S.
Sure they arrested a bunch of drug pushers. Now what are you going to do with them? Deport them? they will be back in business by sundown.
Mexican government officials have complained that the availability of sophisticated guns from the United States have emboldened drug traffickers to fight over access routes into the U.S.
A State Department travel warning issued Feb. 20, 2009, reflected government concerns about the violence.
“Some recent Mexican army and police confrontations with drug cartels have resembled small-unit combat, with cartels employing automatic weapons and grenades,” the warning said. “Large firefights have taken place in many towns and cities across Mexico, but most recently in northern Mexico, including Tijuana, Chihuahua City and Ciudad Juarez.”
Gee, does that include the gangs, escorted across the border by Mexican Army and Mexican Police forces. The Border Patrol has reported this more than once. Perhaps if the Mexican Government would clean up the rampant corruption in the government, I would give a little more of a shit what they want. I am very tired of Mexico demanding that we do something. We had way too much capitulation by our government in the last 16 years, but especially in the last 8 years.
I have an idea, let’s scrap that silly fence idea, it would never work anyway. They have been taking lessons from the “Palistinians” with the tunnel digging. Instead, let’s build a wall the full length of the border. A hundred feet deep and a hundred feet tall and twelve feet thick. Then man our side of the border with armed Predator, un maned vehicles. Dare them to come across. What the hell, Obama is going to spend multiple Trillions of tax payer dollars. He will most likely jump all over this. Oh wait, that would cut off the supply of new Demoncrats, so never mind.
At the news conference today, Holder described his discussions with his Mexican counterpart about the recent spike in violence.
“I met yesterday with Attorney General Medina Mora of Mexico, and we discussed the unprecedented levels of violence his country is facing because of their enforcement efforts,” he said.
Holder declined to offer any time frame for the reimplementation of the assault weapons ban, however.
“It’s something, as I said, that the president talked about during the campaign,” he said. “There are obviously a number of things that are — that have been taking up a substantial amount of his time, and so, I’m not sure exactly what the sequencing will be.”
It will be very interesting to see what the Obama, Holder, Reid and Pelosi gang will decide what an “Assault Weapon” is. I have a feeling that my semi-automatic pellet gun may be illegal. Attempting to deal with the horrendous gun laws here in California is bad enough. In order to defend yourself, your family and your home when an armed intruder breaks in, in the middle of the night. You have to unlock your state approved gun safe, then unlock the ammunition safe, load your weapon, but by that time you and your family are dead.
I keep a Louisville Slugger handy at all times, they are not outlawed yet. I have proven many, many times during High school, College and The Army that I can hit a home run. ‘nough said!!!
