This program was conceived to give government an excuse for an all out assault on our 2nd amendment rights. I hope all involved rot in our worst prisons and some get tried for the murder of Brian Terry. May they all burn in hell!
It sounds like a sting to try and trace illegal gun sales to criminals, to include Mexican cartels like the Zetas.
In other words, to crack down on the guys conducting illegal weapons trafficking.
And it sounds like they botched it.
However, since the 2nd amendment fanatics talking point is always: "No new gun laws! Enforce the laws on the books!" I fail to see what the problem is with trying to keep weapons from being illegally distributed.
Law enforcement does this with narcotics all the time.
Does it look bad? Definitely. It's tragic a border guard was killed with a weapon our government put on the street.
What does this have to do with legitimate gun owners who legally have purchased weapons?
Ya Just gotta wonder about this..
Law enforcement has ALL sorts of dodgy tactics that wind up killing innocent people.
Like:
-No knock warrants.
-Undercovers buying and selling drugs.
-Undercovers in general (No identification making arrests)
-Law inforcement lying to suspects.
-Use of informants.
-Use of items bait cars and other items to entrap criminals.
And a myriad of other things that go horribly wrong a good amount of times.
NOT ONE PEEP from conservatives.
In fact..if any of this is brought up..Conservatives defend the government use of these tactics.
NOW..to track guns..under the Obama administration..it's a "problem".
Wonder why..
