print“Fatally flawed.” “A colossal failure of leadership.” “Deadly miscalculation.” “Flawed assumptions.” These are some of the euphemisms used by America’s governing traitors to finesse their crimes against the people they swore to protect. A gang going by the acronym ATF—the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives—watches over and gives cover to Mexican gangsters and their local gun-runners, who later use this ATF immunity to gun down innocent Americans.
Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry was killed by weapons purchased under the umbrella of an ATF gun-running operation called “Operation Fast and Furious.” When good guys like Agents John Dodson and Lee Casa questioned the practice, they were ordered to “stand down,” or confine their activities to “surveillance.”
I oppose regulation of firearms; I advocate throwing the detritus of humanity—the gangs and the cartels of Latin America—out of this country.
A decadent society is one where the law prohibits local militia and farmers from firing on trespassers, but supervises the arming of the gangs that would kill these very farmers and other innocents. That’s a decadent society right there. This is who we are.
Another sign of a corrupt culture: Law that encourages enforcers to touch and fondle the sexual organs of its citizens, but forbids the same force to ask, inquire—verbally, using words that waft into the ether—if a suspicious-looking ruffian, loitering around a kiddie’s park, is in the country legally.
A society has atrophied when it cannot sharply distinguish non-noxious speech (asking a ruffian for ID) from a noxious assault (TSA terrorism).
This corruption is becoming obvious for all to see but it is encouraging to hear people like Randy Kelton of Texas, who rrecently toured Australia, sharing his militant but lawful approach to tackling the dysfunctional officialdom that allows this corruption to flourish.
The only method I can see to really get the attention of all our government entities, politicians, and bureaucrats is to take a page from Ghandi’s manual “sit on the tracks and stop the train” or recreate “the day the earth stood still”.
The Ship of State must correct its course or we will sink into the depths without life boats or jackets to save us as a nation.
Madam Clinton of the house of Foggy Bottom went to the border when the border wars began and stated that the guns were being imported into Mexico from the US. She failed to mention at that time that the guns were part and parcel of the US Government aid to the Mexican Army and police, who turned around and sold the guns to the bandits. (Sigs have a high resale value) So the ATF had to rectify the matter by starting their own export- guns/ import crime in order to make the Secretary of State justified. They are only loyal servants operating under ‘flawed assumptions’ but their heart is in the right place, honestly.
Hey, Robert, I wonder if the ATF filed the proper EXPORT paperwork and, if not, are they liable for the Fines & Penalties associated with violations? BTW…Whoever directed them to do this should be liable as well. Do you think POTUS will take the appropriate action in this matter or does the Big Machine only shut-down and fine young ladies selling lemonade for charitable purposes?
The more that comes to light regarding “Project Gunrunner,” the more outrageous it becomes. Given how the project fulfills the craziest of statist mythology regarding American gun culture, one has to wonder if it was also the beginning of a false-flag operation.
Take, for example, this business of literally hundreds of assault rifles trafficked through a long-established gun show here in Phoenix. I have been to scores of gun shows over the years, and I have never seen stockpiles like that. Even further over the top was an arms deal involving a number of Barrett 50 caliber rifles. Such rifles list for thousands of dollars, and I have never seen more than one of them in a room at the same time anywhere.
Questions have arisen elsewhere, on famous “Conservative” talk shows, wondering why any firearms dealer would ever participate in this scheme. The answer is quite simple. All firearms dealers must obtain a license from ATF in order to sell their wares. ATF can audit a dealer’s records at anytime, much the same way the IRS works. You play ball or you get squashed.
Here is another article on the debacle that goes into more detail on the program:

There is also a question as to how a bunch of paper-pushers whose primary purpose de facto registration and tracking of American firearms, their vendors, and their suppliers, and arson investigations have managed to begin playing International Intrigue. Someone must have seen one too many Mission: Impossible movies. The truth, of course, is probably worse, and definitely not a laughing matter.
There is also the Mexican end of this deal, which seems to be pretty quiet on all this. Getting all that to go through the border must’ve exacted one heck of a “mordida” (bribe for my fellow gringos living outside the Southwest). I wonder who paid for that? Maybe I should not wonder.

Last week it was boys selling lemonade, they are equal opportunity oppressors. Remembering a line from somewhere- “Paperwork, we don’t need no stinking paperwork, we’re the Fed.”
