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:
Go and try to buy a gun one time and you will see that you can’t just walk in and walk out with one. Everyone must pass a background check, and any gun shop that wants to retain its FFL will not let you walk out the door with your newly purchased firearm without demonstrating the proper handling of one. Also there is no such thing as an assault rifle, there are semi-automatic rifles, lever action rifles, bolt action rifles, break action rifles, rolling block rifles, trap door rifles, and the list goes on.
If this is true France had better bring Obama, holder and high ranking members of ATF up in charges through interpol.
France should indict holder and Obama on aiding a terrorist attack
i know one thing Sherry Edwards shouldnt have a gun. She clearly knows nothing about them.
Well, well, well…
All these articles go back to anonymous sources at Judicial Watch. With the eastern European black market awash with full automatic weapons from various conflicts, I highly doubt a weapon bootlegged out of Phoenix was used.

Stop drinking the Kool aid sherry!
If you think Australia is such a great place go live there, you’ll be begging to come back! I’ve been told this by people who live there!
“Fast and furious” was begun under the Bush administration. Eric Holder did not even know it existed until an American DEA agent was murdered.
Time to revisit and investigate Holder’s and the administration’s ongoing disaster called “Fast and Furious.”
