Fast and Furious back in headlines as Univision reportedly finds more victims
The Daily Caller ^ | 9/29/12 | Matthew Boyle

Spanish-language television network Univision plans to air a television special that it said reveals more violence than previously known, as well as the stories of how many more Operation Fast and Furious victims were killed, the network announced in a Friday release.

“The consequences of the controversial ‘Fast and Furious’ undercover operation put in place by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) in 2009 have been deadlier than what has been made public to date,” the network said. “The exclusive, in-depth investigation by Univision News’ award-winning Investigative Unit — Univision Investiga — has found that the guns that crossed the border as part of Operation Fast and Furious caused dozens of deaths inside Mexico.”

Among other groups of Fast and Furious victim stories Univision says it will tell in the special to air Sunday evening at 7 p.m., is one about how “16 young people attending a party in a residential area of Ciudad Juárez in January of 2010″ were gunned down with weapons the Obama administration gave to drug cartel criminals through Fast and Furious.

“Univision News’ Investigative Unit was also able to identify additional guns that escaped the control of ATF agents and were used in different types of crimes throughout Mexico,” the network added. “Furthermore, some of these guns — none of which were reported by congressional investigators — were put in the hands of drug traffickers in Honduras, Puerto Rico, and Colombia. A person familiar with the recent congressional hearings called Univision’s findings ‘the holy grail’ that Congress had been searching for.”

Care to repost a link to those instructions for the rest of us on DTV?

.........”Univision Investiga — has found that the guns that crossed the border as part of Operation Fast and Furious caused dozens of deaths inside Mexico.”

Sorry, Univision is not “breaking news” here. This has been reported more than once and this has been discussed on Issa’s committee. I believe OUR MSM has not reported this enough and maybe, just maybe, this will open the eyes of the Latino community of how many of their people have been murdered at the hands of the Obama administration F&F. I have a feeling, though they will tie it back to being “Bush’s fault” and that is all they will hear the rest of the report.

Where has our government investigations gotten us, the IG pretty much giving the White Hut and Holder a clean bill of health and throwing some low level subordinates under the bus. We are still waiting on the final straw to drop.

When I see Obama, Holder, Clinton and Napalitano in chains, then I will think we are making headways in solving and bringing to justice the killers of our border patrol agent, Officer Brian Terry.

Hate saying this but nobody cares.

Our guys are sitting in Afghanistan as human targets and nobody cares. Our embassies in the mid-east have been overrun, nobody cares. An ambassador has been captured, tortured and dragged through the streets by terrorists along with his protectors and nobody cares. Our government gave away free guns to Mexican drug lords which resulted in the deaths of American citizens as well as hundreds upon hundreds of innocent Mexicans and nobody cares. Gas prices have doubled, bread is up 40%, milk is up 20%, beef is heading up, bacon has close to doubled and nobody cares.
The administration has been caught lying to the people too many times to count and nobody cares.

why bother? Nobody is going to care if this airs or not and the hispanic vote will go to Obama by a comfortable majority no matter what. Even if Obama is on secret film disparaging latinos and pulling a Tony Montana on a group of Mexican school children, he’ll still pull 85% of their vote.

With Univision’s history of being quite sympathetic to illegal immigration, here’s what I expect to see come of this.

Yes, they’ll reveal a massive problem with Fast and Furious. Then they’ll describe the program as having started under Bush, and the Obama team putting and end to it.

The emphasis will be on the Hispanic people becoming more politically involved to put an end to things like this.

Vote Obama!

They’re not victims. They’re just a “bump in the road” for the totalitarian attack on amendment 2. Never let a hidden-agenda, pre-meditated murder (it didn’t matter who or how may die) go to waste.

Be very leery of Univision....which promotes Illegal Alien Amnesty as well as the racial theories of Aztlan and Reconquista.

Just like the English-language networks in the USA, the Spanish language ones are just as liberal....and promote the Hispano-Racist agenda more extensively.

Uhmm. I always believed guns don’t kill people. People kill people. Personal responsibility folks.

Yeah, buy a gun. Give it to a known drug dealer who uses it to commit a crime, then try using that defense in court.

The preview trailer of the Univision program was very hard-hitting with graphic views of the killing of Mexican citizens.

Congress should replay the whole program at the Fast and Furious hearings so it will be hard for the MSM to hide the truth about the Administration’s total disregard for our laws and the horror perpetrated on our neighbors in Mexico.
