If an FFL sells a firearm to a straw purchaser whom porbably has a bogus ID of a real person with real numbers, how in the hell will the ATF trace the weapon? If the weapon goes South of the Border how in the hell will the ATF trace the weapon even if it was bought by a straw purchaser whom actually used his own ID?

This is a bogus operation that is actually aimed at second amendment rights. I truly believe that the ATF (at the top) wanted these arms to be used in crimes and thus try to pass laws that infringe on second amendment rights.

The ATF has the blood of the border patrol on their hands.

If this did not go to the top of the ATF, Holder would have already thrown an underling under the political and legal bus. No supervisor in the ATF that is in his right mind would launch an operation like this without approval from the top.

Legally any supervisor that did this could be prosecuted and in jail for the rest of their lives. Five years for each count would be about 8000 years in jail. Unless the supervisor was absolutely insane, this goes to the top i.e. Holder and or Obama.

Most of the weapons that are used in crime in Mexico come from third world arms dealers and stolen weapons from the Mexican Military. They are already full auto and would require no modifications.

“Legally any supervisor that did this could be prosecuted and in jail for the rest of their lives.”

The same goes for Ron Horiuchi in the Weaver case. Following orders is no defense, at least it wasn’t at Nuremburg or Me Lai. The only people that get away with these things are people working for Democrats.

The ATF knew full-well that nobody was going to reveal the actual serial numbers of firearms found in Mexico....when has that ever happened?

Therefore, once a large number of Mexican firearms were being traced back to the US, Holder and Obama would have their case for more gun control.

Yes, a few dealers would squeal about the straw purchases, but the ATF, DOJ and MSM would portray them as part of the problem, as unable to prove their case (no serial numbers) and ignored by the media.
