Here is an interesting article, with some theories
A Fast-and-Furious Smoking Gun: Were Obama and Holder Trying to Touch Off a Civil War in Mexico?
possible explanations.
..#1 the anti-gun Obama administration deliberately wanted American guns planted in Mexico in order to demonize American firearms dealers and gun owners...
...#2 is that the CIA ... feared the los Zetas drug cartel was becoming too powerful and might even mount a coup against the Mexican government. So some 2,000 weapons costing more than $1.25 million were deliberately channeled to the rival Sinaloa cartel, which operates along the American border, to keep the Zetas in check.
Scenario #3: The ATF arms the Sinaloa cartel
The State Department arms the Zetas (The U.S. Direct Commercial Sales program is run from the U.S. State Departments Directorate of Defense Trade Controls)
The combination helps fuel a full-blown civil war in Mexico
Civilians start streaming north to safety
The resulting humanitarian crisis is used as a lever for a mass immigration event with hundreds of thousands of undocumented Democrats entering the U.S. seeking asylum.
It's as good an explanation as any I've heard -- and certainly consistent with the mindset of the Holder and Obama duo: the ends always justify the means.
Now all we need is maps of programs in other states. TX, FL, IN, CA, NM come readily to mind, but I wouldn’t be at all surprised if GA, SC, VA, PA, and other “gun-friendly” states would also show hits.
Its always easy to know when the current administration is lying - they’re talking ! The Obama Administration is still sticking to its “limited hangout” meme ! Its Friday “document dump” on OFF (of which this map is a part), is akin to a polluter dumping into the stream in the wee weekend hours hoping no one will notice until the real stench is diluted and most of the sh** washes away !
Great thing about the “new media” of the internet is it runs 24/7 - and perhaps even picks up on the weekends - meaning someone’s always watching these “late nite dumps” !
And - completely irrelevant to this thread - (or is it ?) former White House staffer/OA member Van Jones announced an “October Offensive Against Capitalism” Thursday .

It's still shocking to me that she doesn't get stifled for this reporting. If she keeps on, I hope she wins a Pulitzer.
Bk.
Looks like a whole lot of Mexicans and American citizens are gonna get their eyes opened very wide by this scandal. Mexicans have all been played for fools, while Americans were being stomped on by the jackbooted thugs in DC.
This map was probably intended as supporting documentation for ratification of the UN Small Arms Treaty scheduled for a vote next year.
seems like a fine time to “get guns off the streets of America,” doesn’t it?
Input needed. Have now started a new ping list called BORDER WARS since so many of these stories are starting to intersect and overlap. I would like to keep the Gunwalker threads separate. Let me know if you want on the Border Wars list. It will NOT be the same as Gunwalker, though they might overlap occasionally. Please ping me to any articles you think fit in this catagory. Thank you.
It’s not proof. Interesting correlation which must be investigated with Great suspicion, but not proof.
A given gun may have been straw purchased, sent south, then the perp apprehended later for some other reason. When the gun was found in Mexico and reported as having USA markings, a search of records reveals the buyer, and the connection is made and marked on the map accordingly.
I don’t believe that was the case in many instances (methinks the Obama had to have given his approval), but it is a viable alternative and shows the map does not constitute legal proof.
Thanks Kaslin...excellent info
The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Ping!
