WASHINGTONA high-powered rifle lost in the ATFs Fast and Furious controversy was used to kill a Mexican police chief in the state of Jalisco earlier this year, according to internal Department of Justice records, suggesting that weapons from the failed gun-tracking operation have now made it into the hands of violent drug cartels deep inside Mexico.
Luis Lucio Rosales Astorga, the police chief in the city of Hostotipaquillo, was shot to death Jan. 29 when gunmen intercepted his patrol car and opened fire. Also killed was one of his bodyguards. His wife and a second bodyguard were wounded.

Nothing to see here move along..........
At this point, what difference does it make?
Another notch in the fedguv’s belt.

Who in the Congress gives a hoot ?? It is not getting in the way of their corrupt lives.
It wasn’t lost. It was given away by Holder and Holder’s people.
A high-powered rifle lost in the ATFs Fast and Furious controversy...
No, it wasn't so-called "lost:" it was delivered to Mexican narcotics gangsters, (and I assume the proceeds of the transfer ended up in the coffers of the Democratic [sic] party, though no one seems interested in following the money.)
Cue the ugly leftist woman with cankles:
“What difference at this point does it make?”
Why don’t they also report on the, “No busts in return for intel”-arrangement that Holder struck with the Gulf Cartel.
They’d give us detailed info on the loads and routes of rival cartels, which we would then bust big-time. And then all the loads of the Gulf Cartel would get through.
So we’d look like these incredibly good enforcers, when in fact the US Government was just a PARTNER with a cartel.
Which was why those other targeted cartel guys killed our Customs guy down there —they viewed him as a de-facto MEMBER of the Gulf Cartel.
That's kind of a technical question and I apologize if it's already been addressed in the past with the Clinton Death List and I missed it or just forgot.
High powered? Like .50 BMG?
LOST? None of those guns were LOST! They ended up exactly where those POS’s Obama and Holder wanted them!

If I commit a crime and someone else is killed as a result of that crime, what do I get charged with?
Paging the FBI, paging the FBI. Oh, what am I thinking, you’re probably already reading this anyway. How bout you earn your keep G man!
Boom
How many more must be crucified because of the
abdication of the US Congress???
How many more must be shot from Fast&Furious weapons
from the DO"J" because of the abdication of
the US Congress????
How many many will DIE being shot out of the air

the US Congress????
