Sadly, this is not the Onion or some other satirical website making things up. These are direct quotes from a guy who is technically the POTUS and whom overseas a multitude of alphabet soup agencies who intentional walked guns across the border into Mexico with no intention to track them until they were used for crimes, failed to divulge Fast And Furious to the Mexican authorities/government, and the result was over 200 Mexicans killed, including children, along with all those injured, as well as 2 US federal agents killed
(RCP) “Most of the guns used to commit violence here in Mexico come from the United States,” President Obama said during a speech at Mexico’s Anthropology Museum. “I think many of you know that in America, our Constitution guarantees our individual right to bear arms. And as president, I swore an oath to uphold that right, and I always will.”
“But at the same time, as I’ve said in the United States, I will continue to do everything in my power to pass common-sense reforms that keep guns out of the hands of criminals and dangerous people. That can save lives here in Mexico and back home in the United States. It’s the right thing to do,” Obama added.
Hmm, too bad none of the reporters had the cajones to mention F&F to Mr. Obama. He also whined about Americans failing to respect Mexicans and indulging in old stereotypes and imposing ourselves on their sovereignty. Says the man who ran guns into Mexico.
Interestingly, virtually none of the “common-sense” reforms would keep guns out of the hands of criminals and dangerous people. And it’s a bit late to strengthen gun running laws when the Obama admin. already did it.
