DC Bar Counsel punts Holder ethics complaint amidst conflict of interest concern
This is especially relevant and worrisome as [DC Bar] President Williamson made his strong personal feeling known in his inauguration speech, when he declared “Eric is a dear friend, and this nation is truly blessed to have a lawyer of his superb ability and exemplary integrity serving as the Attorney General.” [More]This afternoon's Gun Rights Examiner column asks what's the use of having cronies if you can't rely on cronyism?

Limited City
Another member, Jessica Negron, had a 23-year-old son named Darren who had dealt drugs in the past but was trying to get his life in order after a few run-ins with the law. He sometimes carried a gun; his mother found this out when she tried to mediate a dispute between Darren and another guy who said he was afraid Darren would shoot him. But he was apparently not carrying the gun when he visited an illegal liquor store on a January night in 2011. He was shot once and died. [More]Dang.

Outside of Capitol Hill and the ATF, analysts and activists were outraged, too. “If this is what the administration means by holding the decision-makers accountable, it’s fair to wonder what they’d consider ‘justice’ for the Terry family and other victims of Operation Fast and Furious to look like,” said gun-rights advocate David Codrea, who played a key role exposing the deadly federal scheme from the beginning. Codrea is one of many activists hoping to see wide-ranging criminal prosecutions of those involved in the scandal. [More]Well, one of a few, anyway.

An Interesting Dilemma for NRA

If he does not drop out, will NRA dare back--and by that I mean endorse and financially contribute to and send out mailers on behalf of--this candidate with "an 'A' lifetime rating"? Especially considering they gave Claire McCaskill an "F"?
Or will they, as so many are doing, either keep a low profile, scale back, or abandon him altogether, out of political considerations that have nothing to do with his stance on guns?
If so, what happens to that "single issue organization" mantra their apologists employed to defuse criticism over Harry Reid?

Unlikely trafficker cited in Shipley case given inexplicably lenient sentence
That a Mexican national, who helped arm some of the most dangerous killers on the planet should receive the same sentence as an American with a long and spotless record of service to his country, and one whose conviction relied on documented prejudicial hysteria and a seeming blind eye to what the law actually says about collectors vs. licensed dealers, is inexplicable enough. This is especially perplexing since the criminal complaint shows Lopez voluntarily confessed to many of his activities after being read his Miranda rights, without an attorney present and without demanding a deal. What’s perhaps even more baffling is Lopez’s background, which has disappeared as stale from the news website that reported it, but is preserved in a book about Mexican cartel crime.

Conspiracy indictments indicate sanctioned gunwalking, government lies
“Even though Lopez told the ATF that he trafficked the Barrett #20488 to Mexico, that firearm is not listed in the indictment and Lopez has never been charged with trafficking [it]. This is because if the ATF charged Lopez with trafficking that Barrett to Mexico, the ATF would have to provide discovery materials that would prove the ATF knowingly allowed that gun to ‘walk,’” the source explained. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes a conspicuous absence. And, of course, more lies.
