From the start of these “US guns are going to Mexico!” reports I’ve wonderered if the ATF had approved the transfers knowing where they would end up. Kinda floored to find I was right.
Who will do that? The spineless disappointment GOP congressmen? No. Law and order will break down first.
Arizona. With authorization from Headquarters.
Start with William D. “Bill” Newell who was the SAC (Special Agent in Charge) and Deputy Director Melson.
As long as everyone is silent on that inactivity, who REALLY is to blame?
I write my congressman. He tells me BS like increasing the debt is “responsible”.
I often say the people get the government they deserve.
I think I’m in a minority in this country. I don’t expect it to get better, based on who inhabits this country.
Now that I think a bit more about this, I wonder if they broke a State law or only federal.
If only federal, General Holder’s JustUs Department will never prosecute it.
Don’t worry Chuck Grassley is on the case and will hold private hearings. LOL...Im sure that’ll resolve it all. I must agree though, there should be firings and prosecutions leading to substantial jail time. Would also be great to shut the ATF down completely. However, we live in a cock-eyed world in which Congress will huff & puff and dither around the edges claiming victory only to see this sort of thing repeated.
bump
Here it comes...the poor, downtrodden ATF needs MONEY AND POWER!!!!! And any Republican congressman voting AGAINST this is in favor of the murder of Border Patrol agents!!! Has anyone seen the FACTS to support the LA Times’ claims??? Or are we just supposed to BELIEVE it is true? More importantly, why are Border Patrol agents armed with rubber bullets...or no weapons at all??? Why are Mexican drug gangs operating at will inside the US, with nothing being done by the White House??
It's got the smell of a cover story.
I'm just guessing, but I'd say Zippo is shipping guns to the “Revolutionaries” in Mexico and they plan on doing in Mexico what they have done in Egypt.
Curious if that long touted civilian army of Obama’s is actually brown skins opposed to brown shirts. Crazy I know, but the thought occured to me as I read about an American Government agency (BATFE) exposed in the act of actually supplying weapons to subversives of another country adjacent our own, and reflect on the lack of border security, and lack of will to secure the border by this Administration.
Everything I see this Administration involved seems anti American. Everything.
Thanks.
“Something about this stinks.
It’s got the smell of a cover story.”
Now, who would think that the reporters in the LA Times would spin a story to protect their favorite government agencies..../S
Nah, they work sometimes .... the DemonRats who'ver been politicking this are the ones who need to be defanged.
And branded and deported, under pain of death, for their attempt on the People's liberties.
Got caught handing the Iranians plans for a nuclear triggering device simply claimed it was an undercover CIA operation gone bad.
I’ve got a feeling Zippo is doing the same thing with arms shipments to Mexican Revolutionaries. The guns start popping up, just claim it's an ATF sting operation gone bad.
I don’t like the political aspect of this action.
If the DHLS hadn’t sent out Jan to tell everyone that the nasty gun dealers were responsible for ALL deaths in MX, it would be different.
Then to find out the BATF was actually involved in the guns going to Mx. NO this is unacceptable. And just think if Border Agent Terry hadn’t been killed we may never have known what they were up to.
The story was leaking out before Terry was shot. Unfortunately his death put a large focus on it.
