Embassy cable: 'No way of verifying...numbers' of US guns in Mexico
ATF Agent: 'Only way to track guns would be with crime scenes and dead bodies'
"We’re joined by Vincent Cefalu, an ATF Special Agent who helped blow the whistle on Operation Fast and Furious and has since faced retaliation. 'We allowed these guns to continue on in the hopes of establishing some sort of chain, or iron pipeline, which was so far from the truth,' Cefalu says.

Why has Justice Department not responded to FOIA appeal on ‘Gunwalker’ briefing?
Ms. Jones, I have received no notification one way or another. Is that due to an oversight, was your response lost in the mail, or has not responding to my appeal been directed, and if so, by whom? [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report chips away at a stone wall. No, I don't expect to knock it down, but a little erosion here, a little erosion there, why you never can tell what might leak through the breach...

Switching off War on Guns Radio
It didn't work out. A mutual agreement about aspects of the show could not be reached. I am proud of what I did in the few short months it ran and believe it was a unique effort at serving a growing niche market. Thank you to those of you who listened, who gave me kind feedback and who shared the show with your friends.

How does clandestine U.S. Mexican policy relate to casino attack?
As long as that policy remains in shadows, as long as stonewalling on “Project Gunwalker” continues, answers to questions like which agencies and departments were involved--to what extent, for what purposes, and how high up in the administration knowledge and direction of operations went--will evade discovery.Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes blood seeping through a stone wall. Lots of it.
