Tyrant Eric Holder says his biggest failure was not passing gun control

  47 Comments
Eyes Open Report

In an interview Monday night on CNN’s “The Lead”, Eric Holder explained that his biggest failure as Attorney General was the inability to pass gun control legislation after the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Connecticut.

“I think the inability to pass reasonable gun safety laws after the Newtown massacre is, for me, something that I take personally as a failure, and something that I think we as a society should take as a failure,” the former Attorney General said.

Throughout Eric Holder’s public career he has been quite an advocate for gun control.

He infamously stated during a 1995 speech that it was necessary to “brainwash people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way.”

After the Newtown shooting the Obama Administration pushed for Universal Background checks but a bipartisan bill to enact such a measure never made it out of the Senate.

The gun control efforts were highly sought after by the White House despite the fact that the active shooter in Newtown, Adam Lanza, did not own the gun he used to kill 20 people at the Sandy Hook Elementary School. Lanza had used a registered weapon owned by his mother.

    Eric holder is such a bum

  • trigon500

    It’s much more difficult to pass gun grabs if they’re based upon theatrical hoaxes like Sandy Hoax.
    SH failed in that more Americans now own mil pattern rifles & ammo than before.

  • Ebol Aidsars

    Like you said, Eric, we all failed this one. We’re supposed to lose our minds about one person dying of ebola in America, but when a bunch of schoolchildren get murdered we’re supposed to shut up. And it’s especially rich that the NRA rubes probably use your comments about brainwashing against you.

  • Ed Ski

    Eric Holder’s Job- since he does not seem to know what it is- is to enforce existing law (which he does not do!), NOT write his own laws and attempt to force them upon Americans. In this case he is attempting to usurp the constitution, which he swore an oath to defend. That proves he is: neglegent of his job duties, and a traitor. And his ‘fast & furious’ program makes him accessory to murder of federal agents and US citizens, as well as providing material aid to terrorists, in this case mexican drug gangs. there is actually nothing good about Eric holder, it is ALL BAD.

    What do these scribe/lawyers not understand about the clause that “These rights shall not be infringed”.

    But he couldn’t prosecute the Too Big Too Jail or The Too Big Too Fail who caused the 07/08 collapse.

  • Ed Ski

    I am sure glad you mentioned ebola, because it was made by and released by a USA DoD weapons lab, and the US government owns a patent on it (Ebola- google it if you don’t believe me!). And it is mutating so no vaccine can protect or prevent it’s spread. By the way, the CDC is NOT a government agency, it is a private corporation!

  • ddearborn

    Hmmm
    What part of his oath to protect and defend the Constitution doesn’t he understand. Perhaps he should read up on what defines a traitor.

  • Ebol Aidsars

    Mr. Ed Ski, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic
    things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent
    response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this page is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may Allah have mercy on your
    soul.

  • Ebol Aidsars

    You really think that was a hoax?

  • Ed Ski

    it appears you are nable to perform a simple google search:

    yes, it most definitely was a hoax. again, do a simple google search for sandy hook hoax.

  • Ed Ski

    You were proven wrong: every point i mentioned is backed up by facts, something you are unable to do! nor were you able to prove my statements ‘insane idiocy’, as you claimed. Nor have you proven my sources incorrect in any way. 3 strikes- you are outta there!

  • Ed Ski

    you are unable to debate with facts, so you resort to name-calling. the first giveaways was the sandy hook memorial website appeared days before the shooting hoax- that fact alone confirms is was faked. but i am happy to do the google search for you since you cannot perform one yourself:

  • Ed Ski

    you can’t have it both ways- you asked for proof- i gave you plenty, but you ignored it- meaning you ran from the debate. then when i suggest you seek the truth yourself, you run from that, too. i am sensing a pattern here, you unable to debate, and resorting to running and name-calling instead of facing the facts.

  • Ed Ski

    OK- i am asking you to prove your assertions:

    prove i am insanely idiotic.
    prove i was rambling & incoherent.
    prove i was speaking irrationally.
    and prove Everyone here is now dumber.
    otherwise, you are merely name-calling.

  • Ebol Aidsars

    You cited infowars. That’s all I need to know about you.

  • Ebol Aidsars

    Sure

  • Ebol Aidsars

    Do your own research ;-)

  • Ed Ski

    You failed to prove even one of your bogus claims, whereas i have proven each and every one of mine. I am glad to see you are admitting utter defeat in debate. Wasn’t hard to expose your ignorance- you did all the work.

  • Ed Ski

    LOL! keep running! i love it!

  • Ed Ski

    No, i did not say ‘do some research/. what is said was: do a google search if you do not believe me. That means what I stated as fact is easily verifiable. but you declined to verify, meaning that you are afraid your know-nothing opinion will easily be proven wrong. As it was.

  • Ebol Aidsars

    ok

  • Ebol Aidsars

    Infowars said President Obama was the global leader of Al Qaeda. And you still trust them.

  • Ed Ski

    first off- you have not proven your claim- you merely claimed so-and-so- said.
    second- what does your alleged claim about obama have to do with the fact that you cannot prove your claims about me here on this list? what i am seeing is you still running from debate by continually changing the subject.

  • Ed Ski

    Mr Ebol aidsars: Obama has broken each and every campaign promise he made- and you still trust him. Looks like you have no leg to stand on in your argument, ebola-man. And further, when you claim alex jones said so-and-so, in fact he was reporting the news, he is doing his job. the news was: FBI whistleblower Sibel Edmonds documented that the US financed ISIS, as well as the FSA- both terrorist organizations. financing a terrorist organization means Obama has broken both US and international law, as well as making him an accomplice to mass-murder and war crimes. so we have Obama: a proven liar, a mass-murderer, and a war criminal- all FACTS. anything else i can help you with today- since you cannot perform a google search for yourself, nut rather prefer to be spoon-fed propaganda by presstitutes?

  • Ed Ski

    looks like you were right- obama is the leader of terrorists in the middle east!

  • Ed Ski

    glad to see you admit that you admit you resorted to name-calling because you could not prove your patently false assertions! and as I said- i did not ask you to ‘do your own research’, i asked you ‘to perform a simple google search’. and I cannot do a google search to disprove your claims, since you made them up in your own deluded mind- didn’t you? I thought so.

  • Ed Ski

    you failed to cite any sources for your statements- I surmise that the reason is you cannot support your claims with and facts or evidence. I cited my sources- can you refute them? I thought not.

  • Ebol Aidsars

    “I thought not.”

    We know, Ed. We know.

  • Ed Ski

    we? who is we? you mean the voices in your head which you converse with!?!?!??! I thought so! your ability to debate appears to be nil. no wonder, what with your lack of sources.

  • Ed Ski

    the expression on your face perfectly sums up your inability to debate me! classic! you could get alfred e. newman’s gig as the MAD magazine poster boy- slam dunk!

  • Ed Ski

    you failed to prove the infowars article incorrect in any way. nor was that the only source i provided. according to your deluded world- anything that does not agree with you must be an unreliable source. faulty logic on your part.

  • Ebol Aidsars

    It means you don’t think, lol

  • Ebol Aidsars

    That’s not my face, genius

  • Ebol Aidsars

    If you take infowars seriously, I have no need to learn anything more about you.

  • Ed Ski

    I repeat- who is we? Your evasion of the simple question proves beyond any doubt that either you are completely alone in your opinion, or you are afraid to admit you listen to voices in your head. or both.

    and neither make you look good. you clearly lost the debate, having been unable to prove any of your claims, much less disprove mine. how does that crow taste?

  • Ed Ski

    Earth to debate loser: it is now! now it IS your face. Glad to see you admit my mental superiority. you are clearly no match for me!

    eric holder is one failure after another!

    not only did eric holder coverup his failed and dangerous ‘fast & furious’ fiasco, he also covered up a prior grenade-smuggling operation gone awry!

    “All of them!”

  • Ed Ski

    you are clearly the odd man out: not one person here agrees with your point of view- yet you mange to pretend some type of consensus by referring to yourself as ‘we’. pretty sad, my alfred E newman.

  • Ed Ski

    If you take support for the failed eric holder seriously, we need to monitor you as a threat to the community.

  • Ed Ski

    yes, s a matter of fact- they are credible sources which prove your statements erroneous.

  • Ed Ski

    Glad to see you admit your are a muslim! that explains your blind knee-jerk support for eric holder and obama!

  • Ed Ski

    I note you changed your name to attempt to evade the shame of your debate defeat!
    And way to shoot yourself in the foot- your gun-grabber agenda just handed the house and the senate over to the GOP. no wonder you changed your name and went into hiding.

    Every Gun-grabber running for office in the US was defeated:
