Call me crazy but personally I wouldn't want to live where I felt the need to pack a gun under my suit at a wedding or a funeral, American's are loosing their minds.

Next thing you know they're gonna be disrespectin' the Sunday Truce! Ain't nothin' sacred anymore?

A funeral shooting in Atlanta ....I know it would be cliche but you have to wonder if there is gang activity involved in this case. Atlanta is a high crime city. Too bad there aren't more details in the article.

Luckily the people attending the funeral had the means to protect themselves ....only slaves can't protect themselves.

Well obviously not as 2 are dead and 2 more wounded.

"A House oversight committee voted Wednesday to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt, marking an escalation of the long-running dispute between Republicans and the Justice Department over internal administration documents related to Operation Fast and Furious."

"The 23-17 vote to hold Holder in contempt of Congress came as President Obama on Wednesday morning invoked executive privilege of certain documents related to the controversial botched gun-trafficking sting."

Hmmm, you got something to hide Obama?

Even if he authorized it, he's only doing what pretty much every president has done before him.

Yup other presidents have done it and he's just doing what other presidents have done. Kind of makes him a bit of a hypocrite considering he was criticizing this same thing back in 2007. I guess the biggest difference between now and the one he criticized in 2007 is that in 2007 it was only about some judges being fired vs now which is supplying criminals with weapons which have been linked to the killing of an American border patrol officer.

This also smells a little fishy considering back in March he said he didn't know anything about the Fast and Furious operation and just saw it on the news...if that's the case than why does he need to exercise executive privilege now? Also why weren't they claiming executive privilege for the past 18 months or so of the congressional investigation?

Every politician will criticize their predecessor doing the very thing they'll do later. Politicians will never change.

Politicians are dishonest, hypocritical, lie and flip flop? Next thing you're going to tell me is the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
