PHOENIX—Two men have been sentenced to several years behind bars for their roles in a gun smuggling ring that was part of the U.S. government's Operation Fast and Furious. The U.S. Justice Department says Jacob Anthony Montelongo was sentenced Monday in Phoenix to nearly 3 1/2 years in federal prison after pleading guilty to conspiracy and dealing guns without a license.

Punished, for being an employee of the US DOJ..?

Why? Because they were white? I don’t get it.

They were part of a very large and ambitious PROJECT.

Holder is guilty of the same thing and what does he get?

This might of worked better had they some means of tracking the guns.
