So it turned out to be a trumped up case, for political advantage, afterall.

I wonder how those people get their two years back. They should write a book about the political corruption that put them there.

It was and is a trumped up case. The FBI is rapidly becoming a more and more corrupt organization whose members will sell their souls to impress the political appointees in the Justice Department. I have absolutely no respect remaining for them.

Meanwhile they drop a case against the Black Panthers that was a lock.

Most amazing is that it was a black female Clinton appointee that acquitted them and beat the heck out of the FBI in the process.

But the left will still point to the arrests as 'proof' of right-wing militias.

An important part of the Fast & Furious debacle was the willingness of the FBI to compromise the Instant Background Check system:

For the plan to succeed in the goal of assuring that criminals got guns, they had to make sure warning flags were digitally overcome. In that way, they could make sure the high-powered guns went to super bad folks (murdering narco King Pins), instead of good folks.

You paid for that.

The shootout in the desert, where the poor Border Patrol got killed —how did the bad guys know to intercept them at exactly that place, to pull a rip-off?

Because the FBI TOLD them they’d be there, right then.

Almost forgot —the FBI also made sure the 3rd gun (maybe the murder weapon) disappeared. Cuz it belonged to their guy.

This is totally aside from years earlier burning down a church they knew was full of people. And, uh...shooting in the head a lady they knew was carrying a baby.

That stuff, yeah.

Lessay we went back in time 30 years and I walked up to you and foretold that stuff to you —wouldn’t you call an ambulance for me? You’d consider it fanciful, you’d think me nuts.

At the risk of being flamed, I’m a New Yorker and I’ve followed those jihadi cases coming out of Queens. These things seemed, then and now, to be LEOs,local and fed, entrapping some jerks. These militia guys were set up and i’m sure some of these so called jihadis were entrapped as well.

Not to spoil the moment, but they're a hell of a lot better off than anyone at Ruby Ridge or Waco.

Everything that these people are doing is related to gun control. Whether it is Fast & Furious or several beer filled loud mouths in a bar, all of the schemes are for one purpose and that is to grab the guns. Fortunately, many of the goons are so incompetent that even Slick Willy judges turn them loose.

Thomas Piatek, Tina Stone, and Michael Meeks were arrested as part of an FBI raid because of their involvement in plotting an anti-government revolt.

The very government that arrested them is unable to prove that they committed a crime even to the level required to satisfy another branch of that same government, yet their guilt is here described as if it were commonly acknowledged. D'oh!

If these were Black Panthers or Islamists, it would be “alleged involvement”.

I wouldn’t pop any corks yet. Chances are those weapons have either been destroyed, disappeared or even if still in existence, rendered inoperable.

Under this administration, any gun outside of government hands is considered reprehensible. Look for some major foot dragging.

They are owed recompense for the harassment.
