Quote from Obama today in Mexico:

“Most of the guns used to commit violence here in Mexico come from the United States,” President Obama said during a speech at Mexico’s Anthropology Museum. “I think many of you know that in America, our Constitution guarantees our individual right to bear arms. And as president, I swore an oath to uphold that right, and I always will.”

“But at the same time, as I’ve said in the United States, I will continue to do everything in my power to pass common-sense reforms that keep guns out of the hands of criminals and dangerous people. That can save lives here in Mexico and back home in the United States. It’s the right thing to do,” Obama added.

The irony is rich and deep with this story as US Gun owners blame Obama (and Eric Holder) for their Fast & Furious fiasco that led to hundreds of murders in Mexico.

Have you no shame, Mr. Obama?

 

I don’t think so.

Fast and Furious guns claim another victim in Mexico.

When will Eric Holder be called to account for this scheme?

After Obama win, U.S. backs new U.N. arms treaty talks

Could that have been part of his plan all along? If not, the timing is certainly questionable.

If only someone had spoken out during the ‘Fast & Furious’ fiasco, we might have seen something like this coming!

Mexican pleads guilty to Fast and Furious murder

Hundreds of guns were allegedly bought and sent to Mexican drug cartels as a part of the sting read the full story at BBC

A Mexican man has pleaded guilty to the 2010 murder of a US border agent, whose killing was linked to the Fast and Furious gun-running sting operation.

The Daily Caller has this report:

Fast and Furious a product of DOJ ‘deliberate strategy’ laid out by Eric Holder, other senior Obama officials

From top to bottom, The Obama Administration is looking more like an organized crime ring.

he were to claim he was not informed that militants stormed Benghazi, massacred our ambassador to Libya and his guards, and then and tried to blame in on a video no one had ever seen, or a budget that hasn’t been passed for four years? And he denied protection the compounds after multiple attacks and requests for security?

Well, Obama actually tried that.

One question was about operation Fast & Furious:

Cox: “A few months ago, the House of Representatives voted to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress for refusing to cooperate in the “Fast and Furious” investigation. Then, right before the vote, President Obama claimed executive privilege to protect Holder. How would a Romney-Ryan administration handle that kind of situation?”

Ryan: “It would never happen in the first place. If you appoint the right people to key positions, you won’t have a program like “Fast and Furious.” And that’s another important reason why it’s time for new leadership in the White House—that will bring new leadership to the Department of Justice, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Department of State, and a host of other federal agencies.”

“For a year and a half, Attorney General Eric Holder has cited the ongoing Inspector General investigation as his reason for declining to hold those responsible for reckless conduct in Operation Fast and Furious to account. Next week, this excuse for delaying action ends,” said Chairman Darrell Issa.
