(GunReports.com) — A C-SPAN video from January 30, 1995, shows Eric Holder advocating that people should be “brainwashed” into supporting gun control.
Holder, now attorney general of the United States, is shown on the video supporting using Hollywood, the media and government officials to “really brainwash people” into opposing firearm ownership.
Holder, who was then the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, was addressing the Women’s National Democratic Club on Jan. 30, 1995. In his speech, he held up anti-smoking campaigns as a model for an anti-gun campaign.
Video of the speech (3:29) was discovered by Breitbart.com and is linked below.
Holder explained that he wanted to use influential figures like then-Washington, D.C. Marion Barry and the Rev. Jesse Jackson, as well as widely watched TV shows like “The Fresh Prince of Bel Air” and “Martin,” to forward his anti-gun campaign. He sought to push that same agenda through public schools as well, “every day, every school, at every level.”
Holder said these resources would be the driving force behind a campaign to “really brainwash people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way.”
The revelation that Holder wanted to “brainwash” people into being “anti-gun” appears to be supported by what Congress and the American people have learned about Operation Fast and Furious.
