    About goddamn time, but I can't shake the feeling that Mr. Melson is just the fall guy. I also must wonder what we've been sending to criminals in Canada.

    Our criminals manage to import your guns without ATF assistance.

    I would not bet the farm on that one.

    The deal with Fast and Furious was that the Obama crowd wanted to gin up reasons to suppress gun rights in pro-gun states like Texas and especially Arizona and in the absence of just cause they created a crisis. They deliberately facilitated the sale of guns to Mexican nationals so they'd have an excuse to impose gun control.

    It stands to reason they'd do the same to Canada.

    Don't think the government holds Canada in better regard than Mexico just because Canada's White.
