ATF Let Hundreds of U.S. Weapons Fall into Hands of Suspected Mexican Gunrunners – The Center for Public Integrity.

In an effort to obtain prosecutions of criminals higher up in the food chain, the ATF purposely allowed guns to be sold to intermediaries, then pass into Mexico where they were used in various crimes involving bandits and the drug cartel.   The majority of the guns involved in this scheme remain at large.

This caught a little more than usual non-attention due to the slaying of U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry.  Two of the weapons associated with this crime were traced to the ATF Fast and Furious operation which allowed those guns to pass into Mexico.

Whistle blowers within the ATF are expecting to be jobless due to having provided some of  the information linked above.    It’s worth a read.

An interview with Minister Bhatti prior to his assassination, on March 2  which a colleague shared with the media after his assassination by Islamic extremists,  and which was  disseminated by Al Jazeera English.

Rules are Rules at Brigham Young University

BYU’s Brandon Davies apologizes to teammates | The Salt Lake Tribune.

BYU has suspended  a star basketball player for the year, for reasons that the school itself did not broadcast, but you know this would leak out. The Cougars’  prospects of success  in this season’s play  are expected to be significantly diminished by the  loss.

The athletes are expected to adhere to the sex restrictions of the Mormon religion… and  OOPSIE  daisy.

Anyway, Brandon Davies appears to be  taking his lumps like a man instead of whining.  This is a redeeming quality.

Illinois: Making the Names of Gun Owners Public

~ Pharmer

Big Hollywood » Blog Archive » Why is the Associated Press Pushing to Make Names of Gun Owners Public?.

The AP has submitted a request for a list of all the gun owners in Illinois.    The State Police are not in favor of releasing the info, while it appears that the Attorney General is in favor.

Greg Gutfield, the author of the above linked article, notes the probably unintended consequence: causing more citizens of Illinois to buy guns for self protection, and so that their homes would not be targeted by burglars, etc.

Pharmer appended the following comment to his article:

Bingo, Greg Gutfield.   This is hilarious.   Picture rich leftist ideologues being parted from their most prized possessions.     One other wrinkle is that we could find out how many leftists are hypocrites, and are packing heat………… but only if the gun owner list is comprehensive.

 

No Surprise: Obama Administration Will Not Prosecute Planned Parenthood

Holder: No Prosecution in Connection With Planned Parenthood Video Sting – Planned Parenthood – Fox Nation.

This was a given…… it is OK for Planned Parenthood to violate the law regarding reporting abuse of minors and sex trafficking, so long as Obama is in power.   The FBI will not be investigating,  Attorney General, Eric Holder says.

The Obama administration will continue to pick and choose which laws will be enforced.  Planned parenthood is exempt.

Al Sharpton Defends NYC aborting 60% of Black Babies

Alveda King: ‘The Most Dangerous Place for An African American is in the Womb’ | CNSnews.com.

Prol-life leader, Alveda King spoke up about Al Sharpton’s  threat to protest the Pro-life sign put up in the Soho district of New York City.  It pointed out the fact of NYC’s extremely high rate of abortion for Black residents.

Pro aborts threatened people  who worked in the building near the pro-life billboard, and this caused Lamar Advertising Company to remove the sign prematurely.

Al Sharpton took credit for the censorship.  Apparently he’s OK with New York’s  incredibly high abortion rate, with the rate of killing Black babies vastly outpacing that of White babies.   He apparently has concluded that pointing out the problem  is  a much greater offense than the actual killings.
