Fast & Furious was not a "botched" operation(gunwalker)
Buckeye Firerams Association ^ | 28 February, 2012 | Sean Maloney

It's important that we clean up the vernacular being used by all involved when discussing Fast & Furious. Specifically, "Botched"; the botched investigation; the botched operation; botched attempt to track firearms that were permitted to "walk" into Mexico. There was nothing "botched" about this whole thing. We must stress the true purpose of Fast & Furious. It was a U.S.-run criminal conspiracy pursued for the ultimate purpose of dismantling the Bill of Rights!

The mainstream media are incorrectly reporting it as a "failed sting operation." In reality, Operation Fast and Furious was a huge success. It achieved its stated goal which was placing thousands of rifles and pistols into the hands of Mexican drug gangs, then hoping enough violence would spill over into the United States so that the American people would call for gun sales restrictions, or at least provide the Obama Administration with the information to impose such restriction. It worked. Guess what happens if you purchase two or more common automatic rifles within a 5 day period? The information is recorded and sent to the ATF. To make matters worse, a federal judge has upheld the rule proposed by the ATF to track multiple gun sales in Texas, California, Arizona and New Mexico.

The lawful American Citizen purchasing a firearm is being punished for the Obama administration's criminal conspiracy and illegal gun trafficking into Mexico. This is total government criminality caught on tape, in emails, on paper, and by the blood shed by Brian Terry.

The Obama Administration is trying to defend Fast & Furious as a failed "gun tracking operation." There is just one real problem with that. There were no tracking devices of any kind installed on any of the guns being sold to criminals. The Obama administration's defense of "tracking these guns" is a slap in our faces, the real purpose of Fast & Furious was to sell guns to criminals, so that enough bodies would pile up across the border into Mexico (remember the president of Mexico standing before our congress asking to restrict our Second Amendment rights) so that the government could call for restrictions against the Second Amendment.

Don’t stop calling, emailing, or writing your Congressman and Senators in support of a continued full investigation of Fast & Furious. We must demand the punishment of those responsible, including those in the Obama Administration. Giving the Obama Administration the benefit of the doubt, it may not be a crime, when an administrative agency you are in charge of unknowingly violates the law, and is responsible for killing American Border Patrol Agent, Brian Terry. But one thing is clear; it is a crime to cover it up!

Fox News and CBS first shed light on this dark chapter of government criminality, and it has been left to die on several occasions. But thankfully, the bloggers, the Twitters, Facebook, and all other forms of social media along with the NRA, Buckeye Firearms Association and countless other state firearms organizations have refused to let this die.

Don't stop! We can't stop! Brian Terry is counting on us.

It was Mike Vanderboegh of Sipsey Street Irregulars and David Codrea, the Gun Rights Examiner, who first broke this story.

Saying it was "botched" is part of the coverup.

Calling it botched is an act of misprison.

Operation Gunwalker was a murderous criminal conspiracy. It was a criminal enterprise and those who took part in it are felons.

Can’t say it any better than that. Ping.

THEY are criminals. Yet they walk free. They make the rules. And they call US criminals, terror suspects, extremist rednecks bitterly clinging to our guns and Bibles.

I don't understand why Issa doesn't demand a “Watergate” type special investigation? The questions are NOT BEING ANSWERED. Who, where and when was this operation planned? This is not rocket science....it's a simple question. Most of us here are pretty sure it was Mr. Obama (egged on by his gang of merry men) that told the idiot Holder to put things in motion to flood Mexico with guns....in order to make a big deal about the pile of bodies...in order to put forth more laws to restrict gun sales/ownership. Subverting the Constitution is treason. Barry is such an idiot he even telegraphed this when giving Mrs. Brady a wink and a nod and a comment “under the radar”....Bet remembering that little slip makes him reach for an extra piece of nicorette gum.

I wonder if Issa is up for the job of exposing this. He doesn't seem able to deliver the goods. Too bad Sheriff Joe isn't in charge of this particular investigation. We would see results.

This is exactly what all Freepers and freedom loving Americans should be doing. And blogging the Congressional and media websites. Most have Facebook or other types of posting functions. We need to keep blasting the media and government about this. Demand prosecutions. And do it in a very public way.

We are the only real journalists left in America.

You have that right.

This country would still be a colony of Great Britain if people did not wake up and finally realize their government did not represent them.

I wonder how long it will take (if ever) nowadays?

“I don’t understand why Issa doesn’t demand a ‘Watergate’ type special investigator”.

Possibly because Eric Holder would select the special prosecutor.

I agree. The democrats try to cover things up as Flukes, accidents, being “sloppy”, or “botched”, but then they never ever punish anyone.

Sandy Burger the burgler never saw jail time for stealing and destroying top secret documents to protect Clinton and other democrats. Now, Holder and Obama are playing the careless excuse.

Enough is enough. Democrats should never, ever be put in Adult roles, if they are so careless and carefree that they make such horrible and dangerous decisions.

“Botched” is the same term they used for Waco.

It's always referred to as the “Botched” raid at Waco.

You are 100% correct.

It is part of the cover up.

If a conservative illegally sells a weapon, it is a criminal act and if the weapon is used in a crime he becomes an accessory to the crime.

If the Justice Department does the same thing it is a BOTCHED operation with no criminal intent.
