Good news: Gunrunner weapons discovered on scene of Phoenix crimes

The Obama administration's, eh, unique strategy of selling weapons to Mexican drug cartels appears to have, uhm, backfired.

Weapons linked to a questionable government strategy are turning up in crimes in Valley neighborhoods... For months the ABC15 Investigators have been searching through police reports and official government documents. We’ve discovered assault weapons linked to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’ controversial "Fast and Furious" case strategy have turned up at crime scenes in Glendale and Phoenix communities.

...Phoenix ATF agents recently testified during a Congressional hearing that they knowingly allowed weapons to slip into the hands of straw buyers who would then distribute the weapons to known criminals... [Agents] estimated the number could be as many as 1,800 weapons.

...“I believe that these firearms will continue to turn up at crime scenes on both sides of the border for years to come,” testified Phoenix Special Agent Peter Forcelli... Weapons linked to the strategy have been turning up at dangerous and deadly crime scenes near both sides of the border, including the murder scene of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry, who was killed last December.

The ABC15 Investigators uncovered documents showing guns connected to at least two Glendale criminal cases and at least two Phoenix criminal cases also appear in the ATF’s Suspect Gun Database, a sort-of watch list for suspicious gun sales.

This is impeachment-level criminality. Perhaps legacy media could look into this when they finish their investigations of Michele Bachmann.

    FIRST are you naive enough to believe that only the head of the ATF knew about this fine plan to screw 2nd amendment believers over. So the forces of corruption could claim it was the lack of anti-gun laws, thus new tougher laws were required? REMEDY treason

    Oran's Dictionary of the Law (1983) defines treason as "...[a]...citizen's actions to help a foreign government overthrow, make war against, or seriously injure the [parent nation]." In many nations, it is also often considered treason to attempt or conspire to overthrow the government, even if no foreign country is aided or involved by such an endeavour. GET AFTER YOUR CONGRESSMAN AND DEMAND ACTION. IF THIS IS NOT ENOUGH HAVE SOME MORE,High crimes and misdemeanors is a phrase from Section 4 of Article Two of the United States Constitution: "The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."
    "High" in the legal parlance of the 18th century means "against the State". A high crime is one which seeks the overthrow of the country, which gives aid or comfort to its enemies, or which injures the country to the profit of an individual or group. In democracies and similar societies it also includes crimes which attempt to alter the outcome of elections. NEED MORE?Malfeasance the performance by a public official of an act that is legally unjustified, harmful, or contrary to law; wrongdoing (used especially of an act in violation of a public trust).
    Nonfeasance is to ignore and take no indicated action - neglect. Misfeasance is to take inappropriate action or give intentionally incorrect advice. Malfeasance is hostile, aggressive action taken to injure the client's interests. HOW ABOUT NOW?Sabotage is a deliberate action aimed at weakening another entity through subversion, obstruction, disruption, or destruction. In a workplace setting, sabotage is the conscious withdrawal of efficiency generally directed at causing some change in workplace conditions. One who engages in sabotage is a saboteur. AND NOW?
    The RICO Act focuses specifically on racketeering, and it allows for the leaders of a syndicate to be tried for the crimes which they ordered others to do or assisted them, closing a perceived loophole that allowed someone who told a man to, for example, murder, to be exempt from the trial because they did not actually do it.
    RICO is codified as Chapter 96 of Title 18 of the United States Code, 18 U.S.C. § 1961–1968. While its original use was to prosecute the Mafia as well as others who were actively engaged in organized crime, its application has been more widespread. MAYBE THIS? tyrant
    In common usage, the word "tyrant" carries connotations of a harsh and cruel ruler who places his or her own interests or the interests of a small oligarchy over the best interests of the general population, which the tyrant governs or controls. I CAN GO ON AND ON. GO AFTER YOUR CONGRESSMEN WITH KNOWLEDGE, THEY PROBABLY HAVEN'T A CLUE.

    The blood of innocents is on Hussein's hands. And this from a man who went on to distinguish himself in being cursed by God for his treachery against Israel.
    We don't need him around, he's bad for America, he's bad for our future. Deport him.

    When patriotic Americans in government service are replaced with incompetent left wing operatives that hire more incompetent left wingers, this is the result. We are at or close to point where the people that would normally just refuse to do the wrong thing are replaced with the “just following orders” crowd.
