The rifle was bought in July 2010 in a straw purchase by someone not known to ATF at the time. The buyer was later identified and came under investigation but was never indicted. The weapon is not known to be associated with any other crime, the Justice Department says.

As of January, the ATF said it had recovered 885 firearms purchased by targets of Operation Fast and Furious. Several of those have been linked to violent crimes, including a 2010 firefight near the Mexican border during which Border Patrol agent Brian Terry was killed.

This administration, Hillary, and liberals on this forum pitch a hissy fit over the so-called gun show loophole.  Straw purchases.  Background checks.  And here we have all the drama tied up neatly into one bundle and yet not a peep from the "panties in a wad" crowd.

Here you've got a situation where only 885 of guns sold illegally by ONE entity have been recovered.  [think of the manpower involved].  At least one gun used to kill an LEO, another winds up in the hands of the boss of the Mexican drug cartel, but no mention of how many other involved in other murders and crimes.  Probably most if not all straw purchases and one identified not prosecuted.  My gawd!!!

And Hillary rants about holding the manufacturer and dealer libel for the misuse of a firearm.  How is Barrett [presuming they made the .50 cal] any way responsible? How is the manufacturer of the gun that killed the LEO responsible for the actions of an asinine administration?

Liberals/socialist.  Stupid is as stupid does.
