[QUOTE="Billybob, post: 2020925, member: 1294"] The Justice Department of the Obama administration decided one year ago, as his reelection effort was getting underway, to ignore proposals that would have allowed the backgroundcheck system for gun procurement to be more comprehensive.... At the time the study was finished, Attorney General Eric Holder was under investigation for his part in the Fast and Furious scandal. The Justice Department, already under attack, had no wish to stir up any more animosity with gun owners.... Christopher Schroeder, who headed the study, said: We have identified ways to improve the effectiveness of the background check system that we concluded would be positive and constructive and help meet the presidents objective of keeping more guns out of the hands of dangerous individuals. Im hopeful that some of these can move forward and actually be implemented. It didnt happen. And it didnt happen for political reasons. So while the President and his allies push this week for heavier gun control laws, its worth noting that he had the opportunity to take the very steps he will now claim are vital. And he didnt do it.] [url]http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/12/16/Justice-Department-Aborted-Plans-For-Background-Checks[/url] [/QUOTE]
