Surprise: Eric Holder supports more gun control

If you watch the mainstream media, you probably didn't hear about this one. You might need two layers of duct tape before reading this story.

Holder tells Senate committee Justice Department supports more 'gun control'

In unmistakably clear admissions before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Nov. 18, Attorney General Eric Holder signaled strong administration support for additional "gun control" edicts.

Law Enforcement Alliance of America, the only national law enforcement organization to oppose Holder's confirmation, issued a press release warning:

Drawing reasonable conclusions from what Holder publicly said, we now know:

Holder wants a national, permanent gun registration system administered by law enforcement. A registration of honest citizens that have cleared the federal background check for gun purchases with those records permanently retained by and shared among law enforcement.

Holder wants new federal authority to prohibit any person on the federal watch list (reported to be 400,000 names) from buying guns and supports confiscating guns from those on the list who possess them.

I held off on bringing this release to the attention of Gun Rights Examiner readers because I wanted to corroborate the claims--which, unfortunately, the official transcript of Holder's prepared remarks, posted on the Justice Department website, do not.

So I contacted LEAA and spoke last night with their Chief Operating Officer and national spokesman, Ted Deeds. He told me they were reporting on remarks made during questioning, and sent me a transcript of the appropriate segments of AG Holder's testimony:

This was coincidental with the Hood shooting.

He is the epitomy of how much of a low life a public official can be. If not for Obama he;d be parking cars,, This is his attempt to raise hell due to the Ft Hood tradegy and he can;t let one that horrific go to waste. We'll need to be very wary of what comes out of DC in the weeks to come.I wouldn't put it past Congress to try and slip it into the Health Care package,,,,,

I think that is already in the "health scare" bill. Holder has been a dirtbag for a really long time. He was one of Janet Reno's lackeys.

There is something in the health care bill pertaining to gun owners. I think it has something to do with higher insurance rates for gun owners from what I heard. Who knows what else will be added. :roll:
