Fast and furious guns/operation linked to Garland TX Muslim shooter. This is going to get interesting.  :old:

In a universe where Barack Obama is President, Hillary Clinton is not in prison, and "Caitlyn" Jenner is the most courageous living American, this is a puff of smoke in a hurricane.  =(

It was not clear whether that same weapon purchased five years prior to the Garland attack was used in the shooting, but federal authorities did contact Lone Wolf the following day, according to the L.A. Times.

That's a pretty tenuous connection to F&F.  I'd rather see ATF heads rolling for letting a FFL they knew was breaking the law remain in business.  Maybe trace some of the guns in illegal sales made before F&F to see if they were used in crimes, and then charge ATF head honchos and all others that knew about the illegal sales as accessories to those crimes.

stay safe.

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

They ordered Lone Wolf to break the law and sell to unqualified people.  The gov gave approval to sales when background checks failed.

I thought I remember Carter's Country in Houston was also one of those that was asked to sell the guns anyway after they questioned the sale.  I had heard they were one of them that the ATF tried to come back and question about illegal sales later even though they were sold at the ATF's request.
