Thread: MORE KILLINGS LINKED TO "PROJECT GUNRUNNER!"

You, who seeks True Justice,

MORE KILLINGS LINKED TO "PROJECT GUNRUNNER!"

The downing of a Mexican military helicopter and a shoot-out in the Mexican state of Jalisco that left 11 people dead and dozens of weapons seized could be linked to the controversial Project Gunrunner and Operation Fast and Furious, according to anonymous congressional sources.

An "insider" said the weapons seizure is "causing a panic" at the headquarters of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

The Jalisco gun battle resulted in the slayings of 11 members of the La Familia drug cartel last week. Thirty-six more people were reportedly arrested. CBS reports that more than 80 rifles and handguns were seized along with an estimated 20,000 rounds of ammunition. Two officers aboard the downed military helicopter were wounded, according to published reports. Congress absolutely must get to the bottom of this ongoing tragedy!

Sources say Mexican authorities have been reluctant to talk about the case with U.S. authorities, apparently because of the helicopter downing. Mexican authorities have been insisting that the helicopter was not downed by gunfire, but came down because of "mechanical" problems.

The strong possibility that these guns are linked to Fast and Furious is apparently causing concerns at ATF headquarters, where both former Phoenix, AZ Special Agent in Charge William Newell and Assistant Special Agent in Charge George Gillett - the latter who has been cooperating with the Gunrunner investigations and has retained legal counsel - have been reassigned. The Phoenix field office has gone through a major shuffle with new personnel taking charge.

Sources say Congressman Darrell Issa's House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform will likely hold a hearing on the Gunrunner controversy in mid-June, but that the list of invited witnesses has not yet been finalized.

More and more, the fingers of guilt point to officials high up in the Obama administration. Across-the-board stonewalling by government agencies is hindering the final investigation, including the Attorney General. Of course this does not surprise me, as the Obama administration is the most anti-gun and anti-Second Amendment administration in recent memory!

What started out as an "innocent" program run by the ATF to allow guns purchased in the United States to be smuggled into Mexico for the purpose of TRACKING THEM to high-ranking members of Mexican drug cartels. Has turned into a genuine cover-up, involved many hundreds of weapons unaccounted for by the ATF.

Will you assist us in getting to the very bottom of this investigation?

Our own government officials are STONEWALLING to COVER-UP their mistakes! They will not even cooperate with our elected Congressmen in their investigations. THIS, IN ITSELF, IS A CRIME!

This goes way beyond "finger-pointing." This is a cover-up of the highest order!

Many of the whistleblowers have come forward to Congress out of loyalty to the murdered Border Patrol Agent. We need the administration to come forward out of "loyalty" to the American constituency who voted their superiors into office!

Every single piece of information and evidence points to an unbelievable COVER-UP!

Will you please help the Second Amendment Foundation to get to the very bottom of this?

You see, here is how this cover-up affects you and me directly---when the criminals use the illegal weapons, it puts gasoline on Mr. Obama's anti-gun "fire" to go against ALL gun owners in general; and even against those who believe in our Second Amendment rights! We cannot let Mr. Obama use this illegal act---perpetrated by his own administration---to use against legitimate gun owners!

The Obama Administration is doing all this in a concentrated effort to blame America's gun owners like YOU for the violent crime with guns in an attempt to pass new anti-gun laws to infringe on your gun rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment!

Heads Must Roll...

As I have said before, this scheme was to be used to attack our 2nd amendment rights later on. Guns crossing the border illegally, being used in serious crimes, the stonewalling of investigations etc are actually the small potatos compared to what this scheme was intended for which was as a way to Attack our 2nd amendment and Constitutional Rights....

They are desperate to take away guns and gun rights from Americans and this is what this scheme was intended for...

Congress set for first 'gunwalker' hearing

By Sharyl Attkisson Topics News

The first in a series of Congressional hearings into the so-called "gunwalker" scandal is set for Monday, June 13th. The title:"Obstruction of Justice: Does the Justice Department Have to Respond to a Lawfully Issued and Valid Congressional Subpoena?"

'Gunwalker guns linked to helicopter shooting

As CBS News reported on April 1, the House Oversight Committeesubpoenaed documents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF). House investigators say that instead of complying with the subpoena, the Justice Department (which oversees ATF) showed them a "handful of highly redacted documents" and provided additional documents already in the public record.

"They didn't comply with terms of the subpoena," says a House oversight staffer.

ATF Agent: I was ordered to let guns go into Mexico

On Friday, 31 House Democrats sent a letterto President Obama saying "the Department of Justice has delayed action and withheld information from Congressional inquiries." The letter urges the President to "instruct the Department of Justice to promptly provide complete answers to all Congressional inquiries on this issue."

Gunrunning scandal uncovered at the ATF

In response to requests for information from Congress, the Department of Justice has said that it has asked the Inspector General to investigate the allegations of "gunwalking," and that it doesn't want to interfere with that probe by giving certain documents to Congress.
