  • Gun transfers are only illegal if you have proof that the intent of the purchase was to commit a crime
Even calling the op gun walking is a lie, since those guns were legal purchases b/c of the above.

So Conservatives either need top drop the faux outrage, trumped up charges, and partisan bs our jon hands w those that want to enact common sense regulations on gun sales.

Lol... how is this any different than the House holding Holder in contempt? It's not. More political grandstanding that will go down as second to the impeachment hearing for Clinton as colossal, partisan wastes of time.

Answer this: if the gov't was letting guns walk, where are the prosecution against the gun buyers? If the DOJ did something wrong by letting illegal gun purchases happen, then those gun purchases ARE STILL ILLEGAL, so the people that bought the guns can still be arrested. Where are the charges?

If you're legitimately mad about what happened in F&F, then you should be equally mad at the gun laws that made those gun purchases and hand offs legal. Anything less shows the truth...
