What started out as an internet rumor in a forum for disgruntled ATF employees over problems with the ATF operation “Project Gunrunner” has now been picked up by Republican Senator Charles Grassley of Iowa and maybe on its way to becoming a full blown scandal.

In a January 27, 2011 letter to Kenneth Melson Acting Director of the ATF, Senator Grassley said that members of the Senate Judiciary Committee had received numerous allegations that the ATF sanctioned the sale of hundreds of weapons to suspected straw purchasers who then allegedly transported those weapons throughout the southwest border and into Mexico.

Grassley said in his letter; I am specifically writing you concerning an ATF operation called “Project Gunrunner”. There are serious concerns that the ATF may have become careless, if not negligent, in implementing the Gunrunner strategy.

One of those Allegations, is that an individual was allowed to make a cash purchase of three firearms in Glendale, Arizona on January 16, 2010. Two of those firearms were later alleged to have been used in the murder of U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry on December 14, 2010.

On January 31, 2011 Grassley wrote a second letter to Acting ATF Director Melson this time excoriating him on the conduct of Assistant Special Agent in Charge of the ATF’s Phoenix office over the questioning of one of the individuals that had spoken to Senators Grassley’s Staff concerning “Project Gunrunner”

Grassley informed the Director that Whistleblowers are some of the most patriotic people I know.

Great story.
It will be really wild when it turns out that over 90% of the guns found in Mexico that originated in the US, were approved by the BATFE for sale to a known or suspected smuggler. What is not so funny is the number of people killed with those weapons that the FFLs did not want to sell, but were told to proceed anyway in order to boost the number of smuggled weapons.

Exactly, it doesn't seem to matter, guns, drugs, whatever, "they" are only worried about their "numbers."
