Yeah, CJ ... the undeniable fact that killthecat doesn't want to talk about is that "Fast & Furious" was never designed to track illicit arms dealers and arrest them and their clients with the guns, no ... "Fast & Furious" was a political operation intent on artificially creating a large flux of guns ... and apparently, now - grenades! ... from the U.S. to Mexico to bolster the Obama Administration's leftist argument to crack down on firearms in this country.
killthecat would rather disingenuously and lamely dodge and weave and project his own lack of comprehension on everyone else. A little factoid for ya, killthecat ... American citizens who are licensed to carry concealed weapons are not the ones committing the crimes, you dumbass.
