    Default Back door attempt at gun control

    In an back door attempt at gun control Eric Holder has suggested “Lets track gun owners with smart gun bracelets”.

    Naturally, he's doing it under the guise of "gun safety" and "common sense reforms."

    The Attorney General has stated that gun tracking bracelets are something the Justice Department (DOJ) wants to “explore” as part of its gun control efforts.

    When discussing gun violence prevention programs within the DOJ, Holder told a House appropriations subcommittee that his agency is looking into technological innovations.

    The Justice Department has requested $382.1 million in increased spending for its fiscal year 2014 budget for “gun safety.” Included in the proposal is $2 million for “Gun Safety Technology” grants, which would award prizes for technologies that are “proven to be reliable and effective.” Of course this exploration with be at the cost of tax payers, of which many are gun owners.

    Funny how Holder is concerned about tracking the guns of Americans, yet failed to track 2500 AK-47s and .50 caliber rifles that the Department of Justice sent to violent Mexican drug cartels between 2009 and 2010 and is still in contempt of Congress for his stonewalling and failure to cooperate with the Oversight Committee Investigation into Operation Fast and Furious.

    I think the appropriation committee needs some insight from outside the belt way on this matter.

    When are people in this country going to wise up and realize that it is not just about the second amendment but also the first and the fourth and that is what should be consider went you go to the voting booth.

    In regard to the above post saying it is being discussed else where. No it's not. I have followed that thread all day and the big discussion over there is Palin and her bracelets.

    This tread is in regards to Holder in front of House appropriations subcommittee asking for an increase in the DOJ's budget to "explore' the possibly of using bracelets.

    To be honest I think that Palin going on about her bracelets side tracked what was really important which was Holder at that committee meeting.

    Hey, did you see Sarah Palin said about the bracelets?

    "Eric, you can replace my identifying bracelets with your government marker when you pry them off my cold, dead wrists," Palin then added.
