Operations Fast & Furious

[MeeMie]

ATF acting director Kenneth Melson spilled the beans on the Fast & Furious program involving multiple agencies that not only supplied guns to Mexican gangs and drug cartels but also used taxpayer dollars to buy them.

He sure as hell would know. His secret testimony was given before two congressional oversight committees. Thus, the Congressman from Arizona was correct in his statement.

"The evidence we have gathered raises the disturbing possibility that the Justice Department not only allowed criminals to smuggle weapons but that taxpayer dollars from other agencies may have financed those engaging in those activities," Issa and Grassley wrote.

Do you know what the word "possibility" means?

What's the big deal, only smelly brown people *lil Chihuahua's favorite phrase* were killed.

A lot of great stuff on this thread. For me it still comes back to the fact how the media is ignoring all this. If it was a Republican regime we'd be hearing about the illegal operation and dead Mexicans everyday. Bill Maher even joked about the deaths.

High-ranking U.S. officials used taxpayer money — stimulus money no less — to buy guns and ship them to Mexico.

The first statement is not proven by the second. Try again.

Mexican Drug Cartel Used "Fast and Furious" Gun in Failed Assassination Plot

Just when you think the news about the disastrous "Fast and Furious" gun-walking operation can't possibly get any worse, a U.S. government report has disclosed that Mexican drug cartel operatives used a firearm from the infamous scheme in a failed attempt to assassinate a high-ranking Mexican law enforcement official.

According to a recent Daily Caller article, the gun "was seized in Tijuana in connection with a drug cartel's conspiracy to kill the police chief of Tijuana, Baja California, who later became the Juárez police chief."

An August 6, El Paso Times article gives further details:

The firearm was found Feb. 25, 2010, during an arrest of a criminal cell associated with Teodoro "El Teo" García Simental and Raydel "El Muletas" López Uriarte, allies of the Sinaloa cartel.

Thank you Second Amendment.

Remember kids, guns don't kill, people kill.

Unless Obama can somehow be blamed, then guns kill.

Mexico detains suspect in 'Fast and Furious' killing

MEXICO CITY - Mexican police have detained a man accused of fatally shooting a U.S. Border Patrol agent almost two years ago in Arizona in a botched U.S. operation to track guns smuggled across the border, the government said Friday.

Federal police detained Jesus Leonel Sanchez Meza on Thursday in Sonora state, which borders Arizona, where agent Brian Terry was shot dead in December 2010, the Public Security Ministry said. The Mexican Attorney General's Office plans to extradite Sanchez Meza to the United States, the ministry said in a statement.
