Interesting take...

...at the Charlotte Gun Rights Examiner, on AG Eric Holder's call to ban semi-auto rifles:

yet while Sarah and wheelchair-bound hubby Jim performed a heart-rending duet for the 1996 Democratic National Convention …
Sarah: “We can eliminate random gun violence. And we can preserve the American dream for all of us. But please, don't do it for Sarah and Jim Brady.”
Jim: “Do it for all our children.”

… the best Holder’s tin ear can muster is: “Do it for Mexican drug lords.” He avoided those words, of course, saying instead: “I think that will have a positive impact in Mexico, at a minimum.”

BWAAAHAHA! Do it for the Mexican drug lords! Seriously though, that's pretty much the long and short of it, as we see Holder took the, um, coward's way out, not even mentioning the possibility of legalizing the drug lords' goods thereby taking the obscene profits out of the drug enterprise. As for Sarah and Jim Brady, I never knew that the Democrats had such a tin ear themselves that they'd have allowed those blood-drinkers within ten miles of the DNC podium after what happened in the 1994 elections. And if you read that nauseating speech, you'll see they, like their acolytes, don't mention anything about keeping those people locked up who allegedly can't be trusted with guns. I wonder why that is? Honestly it wouldn't surprise me if the reason was that, like a lot of people who call themselves "conservative Republicans," they'd rather keep the prisons full of nonviolent drug offenders. You know, for teh childrenses...
