60. Of course you qualify as a human attempting to imitate an ostrich ....
by burying your head in the sand. And you are doing an excellent job.



Walk into your bathroom, look into the mirror and ask yourself if you would have felt the same had this scandal broke during the Bush administration. Stare directly into your reflection and tell yourself that this fiasco which led to the death of at least one American law enforcement officer and possibly as many as 200 Mexicans has been blown out of proportion by gun owners who want to make the ATF look bad.

And the idea for this foolish and illegal scheme did start in the Bush Administration.

But of course you will continue to support the ATF management because you feel that the NRA and gun owners hate them. Have you even considered that gun owners and the NRA may actually have legitimate reasons to dislike the management of the ATF when those in charge feel they can do whatever they damn well please as they are above the law.

It was the hard working and honest ATF agents who work on the street who broke this scandal, not the NRA.

I don't give a shit what side of the gun control issue a person is on, nor do I care whether you are liberal, conservative or a Tea Bagger. Any and all American citizens should be concerned that agencies of our government would allow dangerous criminals to illegally buy large quantifies of lethal weapons and smuggle them to a neighboring country for delivery to a drug cartel with a long record of killing innocent people.

You must be one of those fools who believe that the end justifies the means. I was talking to a person the other day about this scandal and when I mentioned that possibly 200 Mexicans had died as a result, she stunned me when she said she didn't give a damn about dead Mexicans.
