Shouldn’t gun control begin with our own government? Where is the outrage from the left over Operation Fast and Furious, an operation that allowed dangerous weapons to be walked over the border into the hands of Mexican drug cartels? The latest casualty of that botched operation could be a Mexican beauty queen who was gunned down last month during a shootout between the Mexican Army and the cartels.
A gun found at the scene of a shootout between a Mexican drug cartel and soldiers where a beauty queen died was part of the botched “Fast and Furious” operation, CBS News reports.
Authorities had said that Maria Susana Flores Gamez was likely used as a human shield and that an automatic rifle had been found near her body after the Nov. 23 shootout.
Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, tells CBS News that the Justice Department did not notify Congress that a Fast and Furious firearm was found at the scene in Sinaloa.
CBS News learned the Romanian AK-47-type WASR-10 rifle found near her body was purchased by Uriel Patino at an Arizona gun shop in 2010. Patino is a suspect who allegedly purchased 700 guns while under the ATF’s watch. (Read More)
Somebody should ask President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder why they not only tolerate this violence, but why they aided and abetted the criminals.
It’s somewhat coincidental and snarky how documents are all over the place talking about the president’s proposed increase over base including $11.8 Million for FY2011 for Project Gunrunner mentioned in this CRS 2-2011 report of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act on Gun Control Legislation on Page 31. http://www.scribd.com/doc/56746157/41/Patient-Protection-and-Affordable-Care-Act-and-Firearms
It seems that ObamaTaxCare and Dodd-Frank have little to do with improved health care and financial reform, but more to do with power and control over all aspects of our life. Who would have thunk they buried gun control in those Acts?

Mischief lurking in the dark corners of 2000+ pages of legislation should not be a surprise but a clinker on page 31 should have turned up before now but good work nontheless.
Wish I knew the Obama end game.

The end game is simple, Old Dave. It’s the end game of every fascist dictatorship.
White liberal racists don’t care in the least about Latinos killed with government weapons in border shootouts or about African-Americans murdered daily in Chicago or Detroit or NYC with illegal firearms that gun control laws do nothing to prevent.
But they sure are happy to convince minority voters to stay on the plantation for Dear Leader.
