re: #31 Killgore Trout
Ok, now it’s starting to become clear. The article doesn’t explain what it means by the term “Straw Purchasers”
So in other words the operation was selling guns legally to see where they ended up. The Republican outrage seems to be the result that legally sold guns in the US are ending up with Mexican Drug gangs. It seems they don’t like the outcome of the investigation and want to damage the operation.
not legal…no checks, and armsful at a time…I read where the dealers were flabbergasted that the ATF wanted them to sell in this way….just cash for as many guns as they wanted
