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:
So why isn’t anyone prosecuting this? His cabinet and whomever was involved should be thrown in jail.
Treason!
Right back at you Obamatard.
Your oh so creative insult (Original much?) Doesn’t disprove my point. Not a single thing in this joke of a news piece shows any link to Obama or the fast and furious. You do grasp with your obviously limited intelligence that the guns sold by the government were not sold by a small change pawn shop dealer, right? Given the fact you actually support a lying adulterer like Trump I’d guess the answer is no. Tell you what, I’ll play your game. Exactly what in that steaming pile of dung proves that Obama and Fast and Furious were involved. Go ahead and enlighten me. I’ll wait.
If that’s true then it’s pretty damming
Sherry Edwards, I’m glad you made it 60 years without a gun. We all hope to not need a gun, but you never know when you do. Have you had to use a fire extinguisher, airbags, 911, etc? Maybe maybe not but just because you don’t feel like you need something doesn’t mean nobody does. Isn’t the liberal mantra, dont offend anyone, let everyone be, appease everyone? Unless its a law abiding citizen.
American manufacturers, that’s where the guns came from.
Well the good news is they aren’t blaming Bush!
No surprise here if true.
We are stupid? Please go buy one of these guns from our POS president and put a bullet in your dumbass head! You are part of the problem with this country.
