I've been wanting to post about this in TSB but haven't yet; mainly because I am lazy.

The Obama admin told lies about guns going to mexico, so they take this operation and turn it into a give guns to criminals free for all to create the truth. meanwhile, LEOs and citizens are being killed due to this administration. how obama and holder, among others, aren't being called out and people demanding action is astounding. if people wanted bush tried for war crimes, then certainly obama and his cronies should be tried for these crimes.

from what i understand they operation was pretty handcuffed by higher ups, the guys there wanted to follow guns/people/make arrests but higher ups said no stay back

7/13/2011 4:28:28 PM

^yep.

agents were instructed either to not trace/follow guns or to stop after a certain time or distance (when actually following).

it's not a conspiracy. obama makes up bullshit about guns going to mexico. atf investigates; can't find shit. all of a sudden, obama is quiet and the atf starts this "sting" operation. then when agents get fed up and killed, they revolt. then the obama administration fires the loudest whistler blower and tries to discredit him. now the admin is all like "we didn't know about this". bull fucking shit. and what do we have now? an unconstitutional invasion of our rights by the ATF's mandate that multiple firearm sales be reported to the feds. the ATF doesn't even have this authority.

well i dont know about any direct link to obama making calls but i did watch the agents in the operation talk to congress (cspan about a month ago) and could see how visibly upset the agents were about the ridiculousness of how they had to stop following the exact people they were looking for in a "sting" operation

ps i also watched the follow up by John Stewart about the report being blacked out for some reason
but CSPAN is like my lima beans, got to eat them, and the daily show is my dessert, its not good for me but i enjoy it

Yet another example of how the government intentionally creates violence and chaos so they can come save the day with "pragmatic solutions," i.e. taking away liberties.
