    "...it's time to question laws that senselessly expand the concept of self-defense and sow dangerous conflict in our neighborhoods." When I heard the above earlier this week from Mr. Holder at the NAACP meeting in FL, I was not shocked.

And Mr. Holder and President Obama will continue to make it clear. And most of the public, including too many republican gun owners, will continue to deny what they see is happening right before...
