Still trying to pretend Operation Gunwalker never happened.
Here it comes....don’t say we didn’t expect it.
Totally predictable. And NRA says Obama’s goal in 2nd term is to disarm us as much as possible.
"Legal", perhaps, but only because Federal employees aren't considered prohibited persons like convicted felons, drug dealers, and wife beaters.
My take: al-Reuters diluting F & F while joining the left’s assault on the 2nd’s RTBA. F~~~~rs.
In 2009 alone, U.S. manufacturers sold 18,709 guns to the Mexican military, reports CBS News. About 26% of those guns were "diverted" into the wrong hands.
In other words, the cartel gets its heavy military weaponry from the Mexican military.
This has never been a secret. It just got downplayed when they were trying to convince us that the cartel was buying its machine guns, and rocket launchers, and hand grenades from Walmart's sporting goods department.

Worse Than Gunwalker? State Dept. Allegedly Sold Guns to ZetasPhil Jordan, a former CIA operative and one-time leader of U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s El Paso Intelligence Center, claims that the Obama administration is running guns to the violent Zetas cartel through the direct commercial sale of military grade weapons:
Jordan, who served as director of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s El Paso Intelligence Center in 1995, said the Zetas have shipped large amounts of weapons purchased in the Dallas area through El Paso.

“They’ve found anti-aircraft weapons and hand grenades from the Vietnam War era,” Plumlee said. Other weapons found include grenade launchers, assault rifles, handguns and military gear including night-vision goggles and body armor.
More about State Department involvement...
— has sources claiming “Obama’s man in the State Department,” (former) Deputy Secretary of State Jim Steinberg, was the State Department operative who helped Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and the Department of Justice Deputy Attorney General David Ogden formulate the strategy that led to the tactics used in Operation Fast and Furious.Steinberg took office as Deputy Secretary of State on January 28, 2009
A little more than two years later, it was announced that Steinberg's time in the Obama State Department was over. From the New York Times, 30 March 2011:
Mrs. Clinton heaped praise on Mr. Steinberg, describing him as an “indispensable” partner. “On every foreign policy challenge, big and small, he has helped formulate our policy and oversee its execution,” she wrote. Mr. Steinberg, she said, played “Oscar to Jack Lew’s Felix,” referring to Jacob J. Lew, her other deputy, who left earlier this year to become Mr. Obama’s budget director.

They call it balance of trade. I am sure the folks down south went to a few surplus auctions to get the older stuff - plus wanting to do the best to fight the Drug cartel they want the great stuff the US gun makers provide. So they ask for help from our government and get the help by being allowed to buy the stuff from the USA.
