I guess I want more facts before I vote.....just as I do with CNN, I don't trust Fox news to get all the facts right prior to making a broadcast.....all the news agencies anymore take a tidbit and run with it in an attempt to "scoop the competition" and boost ratings.

I will say it doesn't make much sense, and while I'm not a lawyer, I think that encouraging someone to break the law constitutes a form of entrapment. Straw purchases are illegal...period! So why are you phoning the ATF and asking if it's "O.K."?
I think there is more to this story (it stinks like 3 week old garbage) and it smacks of left wing conspiracy, but one thing is for sure......Obama, Holder, and the rest will NEVER be held accountable for it if it does come to be true; you can bet some third level administrator will take the fall.

BTW: so much for "transparency"!

You misunderstand, this is not alleged by Fox News, it is a fact and has been admitted by the ATF. There is a congressional investigation or two underway right now.

Run a Google Search under Operation Gunrunner then Operation Gunwalker and then ATF Mexican gun smuggling and see what comes up. Look for the Mexican Government outrage article on the BBC site. Lord I hope you do not watch CNN.

Obviously you have never been a licensed dealer operating under the ATF in this country. They hold your business in their hand every time you deal with them. A smart dealer gets any such questionable instructions in writing but some dealers do not do so. Yes, I am a former dealer and store owner so I am very familiar with how pervasive the ATF can be.

Here is some reading for you:
