Gunwalker ping.
Mike V. has been doing great work.
Great article. Yes, we know that Obamajaad ordered it and funded it with Stimulus money.
Also evidence is starting to trickle in that those same dollars are sending guns to terrorists in Libya.
The BATFE needs to hang for this. Maybe not the foot soldiers, but those giving these illegal orders need to go.
Carter’s Country was the model to be used by Obama and the MSM.
Carter’s Country is a chain of sporting goods stores around the country that sells firearms.
Do a search for “Washington Post and Carter’s Country” and you will find that the media (WaPo) was doing the BATFE’s bidding by lambasting Carter’s Country as the source for weapons flowing into Mexico. This continued through a series of “investigative” articles that were nothing more than BATFE lies printed verbatim by the WaPo.
Of course, the WaPo story was picked up by papers all across the nation.
Carter’s Country was dragged through the mud as the primary source of firearms in Mexico until their attorney proved the stores were actually cooperating with BATFE on every case and were only allowing sales to proceed when the BATFE told them to do so.
The WaPo printed a 1 paragraph statement that was buried.
This shows how the BATFE could work with gun stores behind the scenes to sell firearms to straw buyers while blaming them in public for the “iron river” of guns flowing into Mexico and that an unquestioning MSM would run with the story nationwide.
Probe reveals that the U.S. agency running the 'Fast and Furious' anti-gun-trafficking operation didn't know about the alleged FBI informants. Congressional investigators are looking into the matter. 
Suspected members of the Zeta drug cartel are arrested in Guadalajara. Weapons also were seized. (STRINGER/MEXICO, REUTERS / June 17, 2011)
Oh don’t worry. The lefty msm will try to smear Perry with this. Even though it was a Obama Administration op to make a case for gun control. Interestingly, they picked a large chain to set up.
Would not put it past the BATFE to intimate that lack of cooperation could have negative effects on their business.

Yes, there was a story of someone being stopped with a load of guns traveling south in Texas, just out of San Antonio. Those on the thread thought the whole thing was very suspicious...a lot of guns and the car happened to be stopped...
Carter's Country only has 4 locations, all in the Houston area. I have one close enough to my house to hear their range fire from my back yard.
you know we have gunwalker in Florida right? You can search posts by Joe Brower, he has pinged a few this past week.
Yeah. I add Castaway to the keywords on the gunwalker posts. The Nachum List link has all the Gunwalker articles that have been posted to FR. That’s why I have the three links to each ping.
The first is Codrea’s explanation of misconceptions. The second is all the articles, (and there are plenty,) and the third is a summary explanation of the different facets of Gunwalker.
Sorry. The third link is VIDEOS from the gunwalker scandal. Geez. Heat’s getting to me, I think.
HA! Well at least you aren’t blonde!
