Gunalizer — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 02:38:34 +0000

South Carolina Republican Representative Trey Gowdy tells us that the Department of Justice was aware of Fast and Furious and gun-walking tactics long before a “demonstrably false” letter was sent to Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley. Holder should go.

Issa Threatens Eric Holder With Contempt

You’re reading it right. Darrell Issa is threatening Eric Holder, the U.S. Attorney General, with contempt if he does not cooperate with the Fast and Furious investigation. Meanwhile elements of the media and House Democrats attempt to cover up the administration’s mess with excuses. You can’t ignore a contempt charge.

Illegal Mayors’ Propossed Record Checks Ineffective

Gunalizer — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 18:56:39 +0000

Much can be said about the effectiveness of the license to carry laws across our nation. They work and they work well empowering citizens to hold the upper hand against violent crime. There’s no secret here. With the nation having experienced debunked cries of “blood in the streets,” anti-gun groups such as Mayors Against Illegal Guns are still waging a war, against gun rights despite the reality of the benefits. A case in point of one of the worst examples is New York City’s recent and continual violation of the Second Amendment, via arresting and prosecuting legal gun owing Americans, as they pass through the City’s busy airport.

An article by Glenn Harlan Reynolds makes it clear how states should maximize the honest citizens’ ability to defend themselves. Stricter gun laws do the opposite.

Handgun permit-holders, it turns out, are a very law-abiding group, as you might expect from people who are willing to undergo a background check and training. (A recent study found that mayors belonging to Bloomberg’s group have been arrested at a much higher rate than Tennessee handgun-carry permit holders, for crimes ranging from perjury and embezzlement to child sexual assault. But there’s no background check for politicians.)

Fast And Furious Friday Night White House Email Dump

Gunalizer — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 05:26:20 +0000

The White House has decided to do another email dump. This time it’s clear, that Holder’s office knew very shorty after the death of Agent Brian Terry, that Fast and Furious firearms were involved. NPR has posted the chain of emails, involving then US Attorney Dennis K. Burke to Monty Wilkinson, aide to Eric Holder. These emails are not good news for Eric Holder. Though remember this is all released by the White House. You can bet there’s a motive.

According to Darrell Issa, Patrick J. Cunningham, Chief of the Criminal Division in The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Arizona, creates a “major escalation of DOJ’s culpability” in the Fast and Furious investigation, because he’s pleading the 5th. Read Issa’s letter.

Arizona To Investigate Fast And Furious

Gunalizer — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 05:44:31 +0000

Arizona lawmakers are planning to launch their own investigation into Fast and Furious. That means the Holder DOJ coverup and silence may not work out so well. State charges can stick as well as federal ones. We can only hope that Arizona is not pressured into folding in the face of federal pressure.

F&F: US Attorney’s Office District Of Arizona Head Subpoenaed

Gunalizer — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 18:28:22 +0000

The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee has subpoenaed the top official in the US Attorney’s Office for the District of Arizona. The Chief of the Criminal Division, Patrick Cunningham, is required to appear in front of committee on January 24, 2012. This is to be expected when you don’t cooperate. Would he make a good possible scapegoat?

Tennessee Gives Warning To NYC On Common Sense

Gunalizer — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 05:39:41 +0000

This is good. A warning to New York City and Michael Bloomberg. Looks like the government of the state of Tennessee is really concerned. Hopefully New York City exercises common sense and justice in Meredith Graves’ case.
