the BATFE lost track of about 1400 out of 2000 weapons that they sold to criminals through this program.
How about this for a common sense gun law... don't arm the cartels.

How many arrests happened due to this failed program? What happened to the program and the investigation? No one was found to be blamed for all that mass, or is it classified as top secret due to National Security Interest?allisji wrote:the BATFE lost track of about 1400 out of 2000 weapons that they sold to criminals through this program.

The Justice Department should have been investigated by an independent prosecutor. Just saying.

They put $ millions in dollars and untold thousands of man hours into this. No doubt directed from DC, not a local rogue op as they have tried to say.
If the documents and disk drives that tell the story have not been lost yet, they will be.

The BATFE couldn't keep track of guns it forced legal gun dealers to knowingly break the law to sell. These guns have been responsible for the death of at least one American LEO, and untold others. But this same group is going to be responsible for ensuring criminals can't get guns by keeping track of you and I if we sell one of our guns to a friend. Good luck with that!!

How often do you see liberal failed policies no matter how blatantly wrong get prosecuted, for that matter how many times do you see liberals getting prosecuted for breaking the law (hillaries server & e-mail fiasco, her husbands indiscretions, Benghazi, Fast and Furious or any of obummers numerous other screw-ups) if a Republican did this they would already be in jail.

Fast & Furious and Benghazi are the two BHO scandals where I would most like to see justice done, once and for all.

Yeah when POTUS give executive immunity to the AG so that he doesn't have to testify, and no one seems to care there is definitely a problem. Just let the AG resign, as well as your Secretary of State, your director of the IRS. How many scapegoats are left?

Next, wish to get the Russian version skip Dushka 12.7mm and go straight to 14.5mm ZPU-4's round bottle opener.SA_Steve wrote:This past Christmas Santa brought me a 50 cal round made into a beer bottle opener. It IS massive.
