When Obama says he's working on gun control 'under the radar', and in light of this fast and furious program, I'd say the ball is in the administrations court to prove this wasn't the intended goal all along.
It looks so suspicious for them to be demonizing straw purchases while the ATF is running a program knowingly allowing them to happen, and having the FBI purchasing the guns through crime lord surrogates. Am I really that crazy to imply that this is a conspiracy to get more anti-gun legislation. The whole thing stinks to high heaven.

Straw purchasing and gun tracking didnt start in 2008 when Obama took office or 2009 when the ATF implemented F&F and it wont end unless it is dealt with directly....an d the NRA wont allow it. Thats the problem.
The nonsense about this operation being a secret plot for Obama and the Democrats wanting to take your guns is baseless NRA fear-mongering (and fund raising).
IMO, it only looks suspicious if you buy into the fear-mongering.
Or perhaps you think those ATF agents who are pleading for tougher anti-trafficking laws are just part of the Obama/Democrat plot.
