There is no bigger threat to American Democracy than the GOP

You have NO IDEA what you are re-bleating...

The truth about the Fast and Furious scandal

It will demand a bit of time........and I know how you Snowflakes prefer slogans, memes, and Drudge headlines....

At first I thought you knew something......then it became apparent you don't.
Your programming is complete.....you are a political zombie elitist tool.....and have no clue.

btw..."Snowflake" is categorically a definition of someone leaning hard LEFT. Just as "Teabilly" is someone on the right.
Or shall we start calling leftards Teabillys also?
What a confused, illiterate. zombie programmed bunch many on the left are. wow.

I suggest you google ad hominem and reconsider your means of communicating - posts like this ^^^ lack substance, are highly partisan and make you appear to be a concrete thinker.

Operation Wide Receiver was the precursor of F&F - both were flawed policies. If blame is to be assigned it should begin with the gun policy in effect at the time, and probably still in place, by the State of Arizona & supported by the NRA.

Wide Reciever was ended as soon as they lost track of a few guns....and it was done with the knowledge and cooperation of the Mexican government...and they actually tried to track the guns...

Fast and Furious was done to get American guns in the hands of drug cartels to push gun control here in the U.S......no attempt was made to track the guns and over 3,000 went missing.....

moron.

You're lying....I've already provided a source contradicting every essential element of your Narrative...

 

[IcebergSlim]

But you DIDN'T read it, did you?

It made me chuckle.

Never mind that....did you LEARN anything, Toddster?

I learned not to take liberal hysteria seriously.

What is "hysterical" about foreign intelligence services finding Trump flunkies playing footsies with Russian kleptocrats and mafiosi?

Do you think before you reflexively avert your eyes?

Tell me more about "collusion".
LOL!

You think they were a Mahjong cult?

Now we're only left to determine the price...

If you need it spelled out - Providing thousands of automatic weapons, rifles, pistols, and hand grenades to Mexican Drug Dealers without the ability to track the weapons once in the criminals' hands resulting in not only the failed Fast and Furious 'sting' operation but also the needless deaths of supposedly over 500 people, to include 4 US citizens.

The idea of conducting this operation was brought to President Bush, but he refused to allow it to happen because of the fact that once the weapons were in the hands of Drug cartels they could not adequately be tracked.

I find this Obama administration program, and its outcome, especially ironic since about the time this program began Obama brought the President of Mexico to the US. allowing him to lecture the people of the United states from the floor of Congress. In that speech he rebuked the US, declaring this nation did not have the right to enforce its existing Immigration policy AND ALSO talked about how many of the deaths of civilians - murders - in his country were due to guns smuggled in from the US...and it turns out the man who invited him to the US - Obama - was the main 'smuggler' / 'arms dealer' for Mexican Drug Cartels at the time.

Many times, it's not the actual description of the conspiracies that come from the right wing that's hilarious, but the "why" in their tiny minds, for the conspiracy.

So say what you are describing was even possible. Tell us why Obama would do such a thing to begin with.

I've already heard a couple of right wing "theories" and they defy belief.
So how about you take a shot at it. Why would Obama do such a thing if he even could?

He did it to advance his gun control agenda. He wanted to use the ensuing mayhem to justify an assault on the 2nd Amendment.

That's ^^^ stupid, even from you when stupid is expected.

We have plenty of mayhem to justify gun controls. Every day in fact bodies testify. Of course fools - like you, or liars, like you - claim millions of lives and property are protected by guns, every day. No evidence of probity has ever been offered, but that doesn't stop the echo of this meme.

And you lie....we have shown over and over that guns in the hands of Americans actually lowers the crime rate....if actual numbers mean anything......

We went from 200 million guns in private hands in the 1990s and 4.7 million people carrying guns for self defense in 1997...to close to 400 million guns in private hands and over 15 million people carrying guns for self defense in 2016...guess what happened...
-- gun murder down 49%

Gun Homicide Rate Down 49% Since 1993 Peak; Public Unaware

Compared with 1993, the peak of U.S. gun homicides, the firearm homicide rate was 49% lower in 2010, and there were fewer deaths, even though the nation’s population grew. The victimization rate for other violent crimes with a firearm—assaults, robberies and sex crimes—was 75% lower in 2011 than in 1993. Violent non-fatal crime victimization overall (with or without a firearm) also is down markedly (72%) over two decades.

Public is NOT unaware of the drop in the crime rates....is is occasionally confused by your efforts at propaganda.

That said, guns kill far more people every year than all illegal drugs combined....

Wrong......just wrong...

No.....you are lying....

OBAMA ADMITS HIS ADMINISTRATION ALLOWED GUNS TO 'WALK'
"The dispute is both legal and political. Republicans asserted their right to obtain documents needed for an investigation of Operation Fast and Furious — focusing on 10 months in 2011 after the Obama administration initially denied guns were allowed to 'walk' from Arizona to Mexico. By year's end, the administration acknowledged the assertion was wrong."

"Republican Representative Darrell Issa, the chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, called the Arizona law enforcement operation 'reckless.'

Issa added the contempt vote was being held 'because when we asked legitimate questions ... about Fast and Furious, we were lied to. We were lied to repeatedly and over a 10-month period.'..."17 Democrats backed the censure"



"According to government figures, between 2007-2011, of 99,000 firearms recovered in Mexico and submitted to U.S. law enforcement, more than 68,000 came from the United States. By early 2011, Fast and Furious had been terminated after disclosures that federal agents had lost track of many of the high-powered weapons..."

You link to Wikipedia as "fact"?

And of course guns come from the US. They are made here and you can buy them from gun shows as easy as candy corns.

Worse, Wide Receiver actually started in 2006.

Funny is that many of the people supposedly involved are right wingers who hate Obama and would never work with him. And how would a guy from Hawaii even come up with a complicated and hair brained scheme.

The truth about the Fast and Furious scandal

Perhaps you ought to read from some REAL investigative reporting and not just parrot right wingernut conspiracies.

You can tell from a liberal that they never went to a gun show, just by them saying

They are made here and you can buy them from gun shows as easy as candy corns.

So far I have gone to over 20 gun shows, and every time I purchased a weapon, I have had to get a background check. So right there, you libfuckers are so full of shit spewing the liberal talking points. Just proves how stupid a liberal is.

The reason people talk about gun shows is that they are easily accessible marketplaces for people who don't want to be subject to a background check to find non-licensed gun sellers."

PolitiFact Sheet: 3 things to know about the 'gun show loophole'

Wrong. You can't buy a gun at a gunshow without getting a background check.

Next stupid leftwing lie?

Plenty of evidence has been presented, you lying piece of shit.

Do you snowflakes ever stop lying about everything?

Whatever the hell "flamed out" is supposed to mean. Since it has no definite meaning, you would characterize anything he did as "flaming out."

Do you have ANY idea about Trump losing 950 MILLION?

That he was put on an ALLOWANCE by his creditors?

Do you have ANY ******* IDEA why you can't by TrumpCo stock?

Yet, he's still a billionaire. Losing money during bad economic times does not constitute "flaming out," whatever that is supposed to mean. Every business has bad years. Consider all the banks that "flamed out" in 2008.

Are you sure about that?

Knowledge-Based Education – We oppose the teaching of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) (values clarification), critical thinking skills and similar programs that are simply a relabeling of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) (mastery learning) which focus on behavior modification and have the purpose of challenging the student’s fixed beliefs and undermining parental authority.

Now we know what's behind their odious health care plan, right.

Finally, something we can all agree on.

Do you mean the plan where you can't afford the premiums and the deductibles are so high that you can't actually use the insurance? And the plan that just drove Aetna out of the healthcare field.....and all the other insurers ....that would be obamacare dumb ass......Republicans are trying to fix that mess....

Cool, once all of the insurance companies are out of health care, the death panels can eliminated and universal health care can be discussed rationally; of course dumb assess and fools will continue to scream "SOCIALISM", proving once again their ignorance and how biddable they are to the power elites propaganda.

Opioid overdose deaths, including both opioid pain relievers and heroin, hit record levels in 2014, with an alarming 14 percent increase in just one year, according to new data published today in CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

The most commonly prescribed opioid pain relievers, those classified as natural or semi-synthetic opioids such as oxycodone and hydrocodone, continue to be involved in more overdose deaths than any other opioid type. These deaths increased by 9 percent (813 more deaths in 2014 than 2013).

The mounting death toll from illicit drugs

Moron....suicides do not count.......and that is where you get your number from.......Japan, China, and South Korea have absolute gun control....only criminals and cops can have guns in those countries...and their suicide rate is higher than ours...

And in 2015 and 2014 our non gun suicide number was higher than our gun suicide number....your number is crap...my numbers are accurate.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

It made me chuckle.

Never mind that....did you LEARN anything, Toddster?

I learned not to take liberal hysteria seriously.

What is "hysterical" about foreign intelligence services finding Trump flunkies playing footsies with Russian kleptocrats and mafiosi?

Do you think before you reflexively avert your eyes?

Tell me more about "collusion".
LOL!

You think they were a Mahjong cult?

Now we're only left to determine the price...

No, the lefties whining and grasping for a reason Hillary lost do not play Mahjong.

 

[2aguy]

He did it to advance his gun control agenda. He wanted to use the ensuing mayhem to justify an assault on the 2nd Amendment.

That's ^^^ stupid, even from you when stupid is expected.

We have plenty of mayhem to justify gun controls. Every day in fact bodies testify. Of course fools - like you, or liars, like you - claim millions of lives and property are protected by guns, every day. No evidence of probity has ever been offered, but that doesn't stop the echo of this meme.

And you lie....we have shown over and over that guns in the hands of Americans actually lowers the crime rate....if actual numbers mean anything......

We went from 200 million guns in private hands in the 1990s and 4.7 million people carrying guns for self defense in 1997...to close to 400 million guns in private hands and over 15 million people carrying guns for self defense in 2016...guess what happened...
-- gun murder down 49%
--gun crime down 75%
--violent crime down 72%

Gun Homicide Rate Down 49% Since 1993 Peak; Public Unaware

Compared with 1993, the peak of U.S. gun homicides, the firearm homicide rate was 49% lower in 2010, and there were fewer deaths, even though the nation’s population grew. The victimization rate for other violent crimes with a firearm—assaults, robberies and sex crimes—was 75% lower in 2011 than in 1993. Violent non-fatal crime victimization overall (with or without a firearm) also is down markedly (72%) over two decades.

Public is NOT unaware of the drop in the crime rates....is is occasionally confused by your efforts at propaganda.

That said, guns kill far more people every year than all illegal drugs combined....

Here...actual numbers on illegal drug deaths....

CDC Press Releases

This is just heroin.....

In addition, heroin-related death rates increased 26 percent from 2013–2014, totaling 10,574 deaths in 2014.

Notice...total gun deaths in 2015......10,102

Then add in the other illegal drug deaths and you aren't even close....twit...

Opioid overdose deaths, including both opioid pain relievers and heroin, hit record levels in 2014, with an alarming 14 percent increase in just one year, according to new data published today in CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

The most commonly prescribed opioid pain relievers, those classified as natural or semi-synthetic opioids such as oxycodone and hydrocodone, continue to be involved in more overdose deaths than any other opioid type. These deaths increased by 9 percent (813 more deaths in 2014 than 2013).

[IcebergSlim]

You had no idea that T-rump flamed out in the late 80s, did you.....

Whatever the hell "flamed out" is supposed to mean. Since it has no definite meaning, you would characterize anything he did as "flaming out."

Flaming out means to fail which you Canadians do on a regular bases.

So you believe Obama and the entire Dim party "flamed out?"

You gonna argue with the Evidence again, Meathead?

The evidence shows that Obama and the Dims are enormous failures. Obamacare is sufficient proof of that. Your belief that Obama was a success is the proof that you're a dumbass snowflake.

Do you want me to get those charts of The Evidence, Meathead?
