Defund the BATFE.
Good for him.
This has to go back to Holder and Obama. It's just to big.
First, we should refer to this program as “Fast & Furious”, not Gun Runner.
Gun Runner goes back to the Bush years and this administration (and media) have a nice way of twisting things to blame everything on Bush.
By focusing on “Fast & Furious”, it is clear that the program was started in 2009 under Obama.
The NY Times article just stops short of clearly explaining why agents questioned the program from the beginning. I think they could have been clearer that once the firearms left the store, they were incapable of being tracked except at a crime scene.
It would be like poisoning the marijuana supply in order to track the dealers.
ranking Democrat, apologized to Mr. Weich for Mr. Issa’s hostility. “You don’t deserve that,” Mr. Cummings, said, adding that the committee needed to uphold “a certain level of integrity.”
That’s odd coming from the party that doesn’t know the meaning of “integrity”.
Lets remember this whole mess would still be under a rock with its cockroaches if it hadn’t been for someone in LE getting offed as a result. Little People wouldn’t have counted. At a minimum the ATF needs to be put on a short lead. The right thing to do tho is completely disband them. In the end gun walker/fast and furious was all about giving guns to criminals so the law abiding could be disarmed. All this courtesy of the fed govt! Someones need to go to jail for a long long time b/c of it.
"Because it is extraordinarily difficult for American authorities to prosecute criminals in Mexico, lawmakers and A.T.F. witnesses questioned the rationale of the Fast and Furious strategy."
"Extraordinarily difficult for American authorities to prosecute criminals in Mexico? "
extraordinarily difficult?
difficult?
How about the US has NO power to prosecute in other nations!
What is Issa's problem with black paper? Sounds like some kind of racist to me.

I have a decent size firearms collection that continues to grow for some reason. At no time, for any of the firearms that I have purchased, was I ever asked WHY I wanted to buy it. The fact that today, there are still politicians that don’t know or knowingly lie about simple things like that is yet another reason the country is in so much trouble. As for McCarthy, she got elected due to what happened to her husband and son a long time ago. From that point on she instantly became an expert on every aspect of guns, legal or illegal. However, she is totally clueless. Somewhere on the internet is an exchange between her and a reporter, where he asked her about ‘barrel shrouds’. It was her legislation and she had absolutely no clue what it/they were, except to say that it would reduce gang violence. Pray for America.
