For the last few years, I have watched many Obama supporters point out that there has been no real attempt to ban firearms in this country, and in fact, gun rights have been expanded under his term (ala the national parks deal). There has been no shortage of contempt toward pro-2A folks, and some of the loudest pundits have labeled us as paranoid, racist, and all sorts of other less desireable names.
Then, last Thursday, Eric Holder said the following in front of congress:
This administration has consistently favored the reinstitution of the assault weapons ban. It is something that we think was useful in the past with regard to the reduction that we?ve seen in crime, and certainly would have a positive impact on our relationship and the crime situation in Mexico.
Perhaps this is nothing that anyone here didn't know, but I personally thought it was nice that someone finally admitted it on the record.
