More Fast and Furious guns surface at crimes in Mexico - CBSNews.com

Three more weapons from Fast and Furious have turned up at crime scenes in Mexico, CBS News has learned, as the toll from the controversial federal operation grows.

According to Justice Department tracing documents obtained by CBS News, all three guns are WASR-10 762-caliber Romanian rifles. Two were purchased by Fast and Furious suspect Uriel Patino in May and July of 2010. Sean Steward, who was convicted on gun charges in July 2012, purchased a third. The rifles were traced yesterday to the Lone Wolf gun shop in Glendale, Ariz.

During Fast and Furious and similar operations, federal agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) encouraged the Lone Wolf and other gun stores to sell massive amounts of weapons to questionable purchasers who allegedly trafficked them Mexican drug cartels.

Yup. Just a phony scandal. Nothing to see here, move along...

We will never know the truth and nothing but...

And that 'phony scandal' comment made me want to slap my TV set. I still don't understand why there hasn't been a strong movement to impeach him.

As long as it can't be tied to the first woman president, it's just a phony scandal.

It's not a dead horse, it's a dead U.S. agent and justice was never served. All those who initiated this hairbrained scheme in order to blame U.S. gunshops for Mexico's soaring crimes committed with firearms should be in prison for contributing to the murder of the agent and all the civilians killed in Mexico.
But no, progressives just want to sweep it under the rug just like Benghazi.

And don't use the excuse that the Bush administration did the same thing! The Bush administration was guilty of a lot of progressive ideology and idiology, but they at least conducted their gun running scheme with a bit of accountability and had tracking devices placed within the weapons they were selling to the gun runners so they could see how they were getting to the cartels.

Benghazi

I'll bet if someone you knew and loved died in Benghazi, you'd sure want answers, these people are getting nothing! How would you feel if someone you loved died for their country and it was called a phony scandal?
