Some recent Mexican army and police confrontations with drug cartels have resembled small-unit combat, with cartels employing automatic weapons and grenades.  Large firefights have taken place in many towns and cities across Mexico but most recently in northern Mexico, including Tijuana, Chihuahua City and Ciudad Juarez.  During some of these incidents, U.S. citizens have been trapped and temporarily prevented from leaving the area.

The murders and crime in Mexico are no surprise yet Mr. Holder seems to think our lack of a federal assault weapons ban is what is causing this crime.  Holder, speaking of the proposed assault weapons ban:

“I think that will have a positive impact in Mexico, at a minimum.” Holder added, “I met yesterday with Attorney General Medina Mora of Mexico, and we discussed the unprecedented levels of violence his country is facing because of their enforcement efforts. It’s something, as I said, that the president talked about during the campaign,” he said. “There are obviously a number of things that are — that have been taking up a substantial amount of his time, and so, I’m not sure exactly what the sequencing will be.”

Apparently our “Assault Weapons” and Grenades our shipped en masse across our border to Mexico.  Nevermind the plethora of unstable countries in Central as well as South America.  They are all coming from here, all of the Fully Automatic rifles and grenades that can legally be purchased in the good ol’ USA.  Idiots.

Here’s a novel idea Mr. Holder as well as the Obamadministration.  Instead of being pussies and blaming lack of gun legislation on violence occuring in foreign countries,  why don’t you just come out and tell the truth that you would like to take our guns away from us so there will be no resistance when you take the rest of our liberties away and enact you’re socialist agenda.  It’s worked so well in the past!

“I think it’s absolutely time to pass a standard. Now, whether it’s called the Fairness Standard, whether it’s called something else – I absolutely think it’s time to be bringing accountability to the airwaves. I mean, our new president has talked rightly about accountability and transparency. You know, that we all have to step up and be responsible. And, I think in this case, there needs to be some accountability and standards put in place.”

God forbid we practice free speech and capialism in this country.  Oh wait, capitalism has already gone away with the nationalization of our banks, guess it’s time to piss all over the 1st Amendment also.   Ms. Stabenow was asked whether we would see hearings this year in regards to the “fairness” doctrine and answered, “I have already had some discussions with colleagues and, you know, I feel like that’s gonna happen. Yep.”

It’s a shame when legislators can’t sit back and allow the free market to regulate it’s self.  What’s the big deal anyways about talk radio?  Is it the fact that the “progressive” radio stations fail, NPR for instance, or is it the fact that conservative talk radio stations profit from producing an enteraining show that listeners follow?    Apparently according to a 2007 report “”The Structural Imbalance of Political Talk Radio,” the problem is as follows:

Our conclusion is that the gap between conservative and progressive talk radio is the result of multiple structural problems in the U.S. regulatory system, particularly the complete breakdown of the public trustee concept of broadcast, the elimination of clear public interest requirements for broadcasting, and the relaxation of ownership rules including the requirement of local participation in management.”

Keep in mind these are not public broadcasting stations that host the “right wing radio”, they’re private coorporations.

In closing I leave you with this!
