My husband is a strong believer that the 2nd amendment. He says it was meant to protect from a government out of control. He says there is no way the administration was allowing the guns to cross the border so later the liberals could blame US gun dealers/gun owners and use as an excuse to take guns from US citizens. Does anyone know if there is any evidence at all to back this up? My husband says he does not like obama/liberals, but seems to side with them over me every time we have a discussion. I worry he's listening to a friend who says he's conservative, yet makes too many remarks that are liberal views.

I don't understand your husband's argument “it was meant to protect from a gvt out of control”. What does that mean? The DOJ did indeed know this was going on. Even if you just google the subject plenty of facts come up re: the DOJ’s involvement. There have even been a few e-mails that tie the inception of Gunwalker to the WH. If you have the time and interest, spend an hour and just start reading. Do a search here on FR...there was one great post that pretty much boiled everything down. Sorry I don't have a link to that. A little search will give you plenty of info to GIVE TO HIM. Let him read the info, then pass it on to his “friend” for his opinion. I've done this and it opened a few eyes.

The thing that I find the most damning is the 2 year old video of Mr. Obama assuring the wife of James Brady (Brady law) not to worry that more isn't being done re: gun control...That he was working on something “under the radar”. That says it all for me....Although of course this is “proof”...if you look at all the evidence that is coming out...It makes sense.

I do wish Issa would put this in 4th gear. If Whitewater and Water Gate deserved a special investigation...surely, with the loss of life involved, this does.

What the author and many people still have not added into this story is the fact that the BATFE was having their own agents also purchase firearms themselves that were being given/sold to known criminals.

This clearly shows the intent was to move the weapons into the criminal hands.

Also, as has been evidenced, allowing the same criminal (who failed background check) to come week-after-week into a gun store where he was buying 20+ firearms at each visit also shows the program had no controls whatsoever.

Finally, and most curious, was Obama’s statement to gun control groups in a private meeting that he was working on gun control “behind the scenes”. This was during the time the Administration was complaining about the flow of firearms into Mexico from the United States...the same time the BATFE was allowing all these sales to go through.

The government was dumping American-made guns on the US/Mexico border so they could cite the prevalence of American-made guns on the US/Mexican border as proof that they needed to shut down the sale of guns to Americans.

There is NO other explanation that makes sense. And they didn't give a good goddamn who got killed with those guns, especially south of the border (where at least 200 civilians have been killed by these guns so far.)

If Mexico wasn't a thumb-sucking US dependent, they would consider it an act of war.

Let him read *this* and *this.*
