I'm wondering if that was the policy for Gun Runner and not for Fast & Furious.
This is precisely what I was warning about in my original post......they will confuse the issue so it becomes "too complex" for the public to follow it.

Don’t know for sure, Erik. But I thought I read that it was the Bush era policy. Haven’t been able to pin it down. But if the Bush policy was to not let guns cross the Border, it makes sense that it was Gunrunner. Agents would know when the guns were getting close to the Border.
