Eric Holder: Maybe lawful gun owners should have to wear electronic bracelets to use them

Maybe I should have to put my boot up Holder’s ass to straighten him out.

Chump.

[MrB]

Yeah, that would be a good place to “prove” them out.

Any government agent at any level must have a tracking bracelet matched to his service side arm in order for it to operate.

Just when you think they can't get any more Orwellian, they do.

Maybe they can build in a dog detector, just to make their job a little easier.

[I want the USA back]

As I’ve said. They want to take guns from honest, law-abiding non-violent people and deliberately leave them in the hands of violent criminals.
Did I say deliberately?

[logic101.net]

Forget about innocent until proven guilty.

[MrB]

As someone else suggested, when the operator pulls the trigger, the bracelet will communicate back to some central authority that decides on an ad hoc basis as to whether to allow the gun to fire or not.

It might take a few minutes, but if it saves one life, it’s worth it.

I’m sure LEO and FedLEO will go along with this because they think it’s a good idea for the rest of us.

Ok...TEST it first on Holder and this Admin security details

[FlingWingFlyer]

All of the “jingoistic” freedom garbage in America has got to go, right Eric? We need to be more like the old Third Reich or Soviet Union, right Eric?

[MrB]

You’re referring to one facet of “reparations”...

[Slyfox]

Making lawful gun owners wear electronic bracelets is called the epitome of black self-determination.

[from occupied ga]

I think he should test this for 20 years on police and armed fedeal bureaucrats.

"Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against... We're after power and we mean it... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted – and you create a nation of law-breakers – and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with.”― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged, 1957

I think we should be tattooed on our wrists with the serial numbers of our weapons and marched onto trains bound for the showers.

Come try to put one on me! He needs to be impeached right now.

Nothing like the feeling of having your life dependent upon the whims of an electronic circuit and a battery that was installed after sitting on a warehouse shelf for 9 years.

[CrazyIvan]

I used to laugh at clever sarcasm like this. Lately I cringe and think don't give them any ideas!
