Did the U.S. Government Supply the Gun that Killed Jaime Zapata?

[burf]

Operation Fast and Furious—the Arizona-based federal gun-tracking program that led to the death of a U.S. agent at the hands of Mexican criminals—could be underway in Texas, too, and may have led to the death of Laredo immigration agent Jaime Zapata.

According to an October 2011 investigation by Houston NBC affiliate KPRC, employees at a Houston gun shop named Carter’s Country alleged that they were asked by Houston ATF agents in 2006 to sell guns to suspicious purchasers and notify ATF so agents could observe the purchases. Carter’s Country employees say they complied with the request, adding that at least 6 of the 16 times they called during a suspicious sale, ATF agents never showed, but told Carter’s Country to make the sale anyway.

And what of the murder of special agent Zapata, who was shot and killed in Mexico in February 2011? That gun was traced back to gun dealers near Dallas.

How many more Brian Terrys and Jamie Zapatas do there have to be before someone who facilitated this goes to jail or at least loses there job? When is the truth of these operations finally going to be revealed? We are told there is no money to help those who are losing their jobs but we sure as hell got $10 million in stimulus money along with $416.5 million, in the last year alone to propagate this bullshit.

Go ahead and ignore the situation, it ain't going away.
