KOMO’s Carlson turns up heat on ATF’s ‘Gunrunner’ sc
KOMO’s Carlson turns up heat on ATF’s ‘Gunrunner’ scandal
March 7th, 2011 1:31 pm PT
Seattle radio talkmeister extraordinaire John Carlson started turning up the heat on the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’ Project Gunrunner scandal Monday during the final hour of his morning broadcast, taking specific aim at major news organizations for not covering the story.
Carlson, perhaps the Jet City’s most recognizable conservative talk host and commentator currently on the air, and whose father was a police officer, is also questioning how it was that Border Patrol agents working with slain agent Brian Terry last Dec. 14 were armed with beanbag rounds when they confronted several suspects ten miles from Nogales near the Arizona-Mexico border. http://onlygunsandmoney.blogspot.com/20 ... oject.html
This column was on the air with Carlson for about five minutes; long enough to note that CBS News’ Sharyl Atkisson has been hammering this story. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162- ... 03544.html However, Carlson is essentially correct by noting that most news agencies – the exceptions being the Washington Times, Los Angeles Times, Fox News, Arizona Star and a relative handful of others (but not the Seattle Times or on-line Seattle P-I.com) – are largely absent. With the exception of Carlson and this column, Seattle news outlets have been silent.
That’s their mistake, because today, this scandal went international, and potentially nuclear in a political sense. Perhaps because KOMO is the ABC affiliate in Seattle, that network may now jump into the story. They have lots of catching up to do, not only with Atkisson, but with my colleague, David Codrea http://www.examiner.com/gun-rights-in-n ... l-incident and independent blogger Mike Vanderboegh, who began digging up this story together about three months ago. http://sipseystreetirregulars.blogspot. ... mally.html

Think back to 2006 and the prosecution of former Border Patrol agents Jose Alonso Compean and Ignacio Ramos. http://www.wnd.com/?pageId=38477
They were charged, tried and convicted for shooting an illegal alien and drug smuggler, Osbaldo Aldrete-Davila, in the buttocks as he fled from them, after jumping from behind the wheel of a van loaded with 800 pounds of marijuana. Public outrage over the prosecution and conviction of the two agents swept across Texas and the Southwest.
The agency hasn’t forgotten that, and it is conceivable that higher-ups do not want a replay, no matter how monumentally stupid that seems.
This time there will be many going to Federal Pound You in the Backside Penitentiary
DOJ / ATF / DHS all the way up to Obama / Bush and many in his administration as well
That's How Big This Is
When all is said and done; Those 2000 - 3000 Assault Rifles / Sniper Rifles that walked to the Mexican Cartels hand will make Water Gate look like a Tip Toe Through The Tulips
