‘Castaway’ inmate asks reps to investigate Florida ‘gunwalking’ allegations
Hugh Crumpler III, the federal inmate incarcerated at a facility in Lexington, KY, for illegal firearms sales, has written letters to Rep. Gus Bilirakis and Sen. Marco Rubio requesting they look into “Operation Castaway,” an investigation the Justice Department has characterized as an anti-gun trafficking operation conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives’ Tampa Field Division.

Mainstream media ignores Indiana ‘Gunwalker’ story
In a development that parallels the earliest efforts to bring the “Project Gunwalker” story itself to the public’s attention despite media apathy...once more so-called “new media” has established itself as the leader in breaking news the majors, with editors, reporting staff and travel and expense budgets, can or will not.

Dave Workman notices a common theme.

The Cornyn Cornhole
From a reader:
Why he arrived at that conclusion:
Yeah, right.
So, John, what are you actually going to DO about it?
Just as an fyi, I always save a copy of what I post in those forms, and generally screenshots to prove it.
Cornyn response (as received) to my gunwalker comments of several weeks ago. Regret that since my original was on the stupid web form I do not have backup as to my remarks which had all to do with gunwalker, related investigations and suggestion that Cornyn actively engage since he had just made some public comment about the situation and nothing to do with dealer records referenced here in par. 3. It is indeed too late to work within a corrupt system.
Why he arrived at that conclusion:
Dear Mr.xxxx:"Sincerely."
Thank you for contacting me about the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives. I appreciate having the benefits of your comments on this matter.
It is essential to safeguard the law-abiding citizen's constitutional right to own and use firearms designed for legitimate purposes such as hunting, target shooting, collecting, and self-protection. Restricting this right runs counter to the intent of our Founding Fathers, who expressly guaranteed that citizens would retain the right to keep and bear arms.
As you know, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) serves as a law enforcement and regulatory agency within the United States Department of Justice to prevent the illegal use and trafficking of firearms, and ensure that firearms retailers abide by all federal laws regarding the sale and record-keeping of firearms. I believe Congress must exercise strict oversight of the ATF and its policies to ensure that law-abiding Americans’ Second Amendment rights are not infringed.
As a former Texas Supreme Court Justice and Attorney General, I have firsthand knowledge of crime-fighting policies that work, and I believe that citizens' Second Amendment rights should not be restricted because of the actions of criminals. Rather, we must respect the rights of law-abiding citizens and focus our attention on the source of violent crime: criminals who use firearms to commit crimes. I believe that strictly enforcing the law and meting out longer sentences for career criminals and those who use firearms when committing crimes will reduce crime more effectively than gun or equipment bans, which primarily serve to take firearms away from law-abiding citizens.
I appreciate the opportunity to represent Texans in the United States Senate, and you may be certain that I will continue working with my colleagues to monitor the activities of the ATF and protect our Second Amendment rights. Thank you for taking the time to contact me.
Sincerely,
JOHN CORNYN
United States Senator
Yeah, right.
So, John, what are you actually going to DO about it?
Just as an fyi, I always save a copy of what I post in those forms, and generally screenshots to prove it.

Exclusive Report: Documents indicate ATF, FBI allowed Indiana ‘crime gun’ sales
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has acknowledged an Indiana dealer’s cooperation in conducting straw purchases at the direction of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Exclusive documents obtained by Gun Rights Examiner show the dealer cooperated with ATF by selling guns to straw purchasers, and that bureau management later asserted these guns were being traced to crimes. [More]Today's special Gun Rights Examiner report provides documentation that the government was aware that guns authorized for straw purchases were being traced to crime scenes.

ATF emails and Assistant US Attorney memo point to official Gunwalker cover-up
Especially relevant to prior reports in this column: Much of the correspondence focuses on straw purchasing suspect Jaime Avila, and a memorandum from AUSA Hurley to his then-boss, just-resigned U.S. Attorney Dennis Burke, specifically opens detailing Avila's connection to the guns found at the Brian Terry murder scene. Burke, regular readers will recall, filed a motion with the court in the Avila case to deny victim status to Agent Terry's parents citing lack of a link between Avila's straw purchases and their son's murder. [More]This evening's Gun Rights Examiner report shows how "law enforcement" officials immediately tried to mask the connection between their gunwalking and the death of a Border Patrol agent.
