Wow........we care so much more for citizens of another country than ours.....makes me wonder if any of this is connected to the Zeta Commandos...

If we were really concerned for citizens of Mexico we should arm the everyday families of Mexico.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tossed cold water on the prospect of reinstating the assault weapons ban, highlighting Democrats’ reluctance to take on gun issues.

Attorney General Eric Holder raised the prospect Wednesday that the administration would push to bring back the ban. But Pelosi (D-Calif.) indicated on Thursday that he never talked to her. The Speaker gave a flat “no” when asked if she had talked to administration officials about the ban.

“On that score, I think we need to enforce the laws we have right now,” Pelosi said at her weekly news conference. “I think it's clear the Bush administration didn’t do that.”Outside of the dig at the recent Republican president, that phrase is the stock line of those who don’t want to pass new gun control laws, such as the National Rifle Association.
The White House declined to comment on Holder's remarks, referring reporters to the Department of Justice. The DoJ did not respond to The Hill's request for comment.

So very strange that as a gun owner I would be applauding something Pelosi said.

'sOK. As long as you're applauding the words and not the Speaker.

(that's a pun)

(just in case anybody missed it)

(or cared)

:D
