Holder Threatens Kansas Over New Gun Law

[OldCurlyWolf]

A well written, concise letter that lays it all out. Good job by the Kansas AG, including pointing out the hypocrisy of the current administration in picking and choosing what to enforce.

NOT the AG. The KS Secretary of State.

That was a great response! Love it! Holder can take a long walk for all I care.

I was mightily impressed and heartened by that response letter from Kansas Secretary of State Kobach. I made sure I contacted him via email to let him know that. When someone shows steadfast leadership, no matter where they are in this nation, we should do what we can to bolster those efforts.

You can betcher bottom dollar the Kansas AG was consulted in this letter.

This is great stuff.

Incrementalism works both ways.

Kansas isn't the first state to do this. Has he made similar threats against the others?

Not that I have heard of. That is why I found this interesting. Almost immediately after it was passed / signed, the feds fired off a letter. Then again, perhaps they have warned other states and those states decided it wasn't worth publicizing.

Kansas's last governor is Kathleen Sebelius, a hardline leftist, and current member of Obama's cabinet (Heal & Human Services). My guess is that this new law passed over some stiff opposition from the same folks that elected her governor, meaning that the forces of Mordor still have a significant presence in the state. If Oklahoma or Texas were to pass such a bill, I doubt that Holder would waste time trying to send them a letter which he knows full well will just end up burned in an ashtray. Maybe he thinks Kansans will back his play.

Hard to understand how the likes of Sebelius and Napolitano are elected to governorships of states as red as KS and AZ.
