The Obama administration is determined to tighten gun regulations and background checks, and to add hundreds or thousands of veterans to a list that will prevent them from buying guns for sport, personal protection, or simply for pleasure because “guns are dangerous and can fall into the hands of criminals and terrorists.” At least that is the purported aim. Many of these people will lose their Constitutional right to own a firearm without any due process. And the real secret is the long term objective, which is to confiscate all guns from law abiding citizens, whether that takes months or years.
The irony is that while the Obama administration has been working overtime to take guns away from any number of Americans (and we are talking tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands), the Justice Department, under the direction of Attorney Eric Holder, launched a program called Fast and Furious early in Obama’s first term that placed thousands of guns in the hands of criminals, including exceedingly violent gang members, with the purported purpose of “tracking” them to Mexican drug lords, thus allowing Mexican and U.S. police to arrest and incarcerate these criminals. The end result, however, was that the Justice Department lost track of virtually all of the weapons, with a few notable exceptions.
So while Obama is doing everything possible to take guns away from law-abiding citizens, he was handing hundreds of high-powered weapons to criminals and other bad guys.
How does that make sense?
See where Fast and Furious weapons ended up, page 2:
Curt, Slightly different situation and of course people leave out all the facts of a situation which would change ones viewpoint and the severity of the situation. Reagan’s aim was to free american hostages, so what hostages is the obama administration trying to free, or what peace is he trying to bring by underhandedly selling confiscated firearms and arming an enemy that we have been at war with since bush????????
I got your back Shery , and you are right don’t be intimidated by them ,nobody else is.
Ramon Castellanos fast and furious was just another code word for “gun walking” program started in 2006.
But it doesn’t matter when it started, this story is bull

That doesn’t make logistical sense. Why would they transport a semi auto gun from america, across the Atlantic, when it would be quicker and easier to transport a full auto from goatfuckerstan across the Mediterranean?
RTFA. Then comment.
No big shocker there
School kids can get guns easier than a book
