Now, Richmond critics are charging that Project Exile unfairly targets blacks and fails to distinguish between big and little offenders. Now compassionate conservative George W. Bush is using the presidential bully pulpit to spread Project Exile nationwide. Given the past record of rogue federal alphabet agencies like BATF, DEA and the FBI, these fears may well be justified. Bush also is asking for the hiring of more than 100 new federal prosecutors dedicated to gun cases. Central to the Bush plan is a federal-state partnership to prosecute gun crimes.
Some federal judges are dubious.
Even before passage of Bush s plan, other jurisdictions are considering adopting the same approach, or perhaps already have. The U.S. Attorney for the Western District has implemented the project in Roanoke. Statists like Schumer, Brady, Armey and Bush supporting expansion of this horrible plan does not surprise me in the least. Not only is it not unexpected, I expect worse in the future. I thought Moses was supposed to lead us to the Promised Land.
