I was just listening to his leaving speech, and he said his biggest frustration while in office was after seeing the horror of Newtown CT, being unable to get any "common sense" gun control measures passed. My Q would be, what "common sense" gun control measures that his office would have wanted to see passed that would have prevented Newton or a future Newton?
He invoked a highly emotional topic to get people's mind in the "it's for the children" mode then offered nothing that would impact the risks of another Newton. Proposing laws that wouldn't have any impact on risks of Newton type shooting but would impinge on 2A/Conts Rights of law abiding citizens will (shocker or shockers) tend to get rejected.
But, push for measures that might prevent another similar shooting, went ignored as "gun nut" options developed by the evil NRA and gun industry, etc, etc.
It's not rocket science Mr Holder.
