You are mistaken. They were forced to try to help track guns that they were selling already to straw purchasers with knowledge they were headed to Mexico. If the same young woman is buying a thousand guns a year at retail stores, we all know what is happening.
And that is the point. Thousands upon thousands of guns are bought in Texas and sent to Mexico. It is blatant. And yet no one does anything about it.

Remind the forum: who was still infesting the Oral Office until noon on January 20, 2001?
Neither here nor there. The terrorists were being trained by Americans and attacked America with Guantanamo George in office.
Have a refresher;
The September 11 attacks, also commonly referred to as 9/11, were a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks by the militant Islamist terrorist group al-Qaeda against the United States on the morning of Tuesday, September 11, 2001.
George W. Bush's tenure as the 43rd president of the United States began with his first inauguration on January 20, 2001,

And YOU want to compare 9/11 with a non-event by a mentally-ill perpetrator from Blackburn, England

Wally. Until you have a full knowledge as to what obama did when he turned operation wide receiver into fast and furious, stop talking bullshit. Obama and Eric Holders mission was to try and dismantle the US gun industry by flooding the cartels with guns and then pointing out that US guns were used in crimes.
Get your hands on this book and get educated. The auithor was there and gives first hand accounts of what the ATF was doing.
History,
1. The project that became known as Fast and Furious began in November 2009 and took place out of the Phoenix office of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives' (ATF) office.
Gun-buyers, many of whom the feds suspected were criminals, were permitted to take firearms purchased in the U.S. and walk into Mexico without interference from agents; the intention was that once the guns were sold to powerful drug cartels, the ATF would later trace the firearms. Whistleblowers and investigators, however, found no attempt to trace the guns.
2. Some ATF agents became concerned the weapons were being used for crimes. On Dec. 14, 2010, U.S. Border Patrol agent Brian Terry was killed during a gunfight. Guns in the shootout were involved in the Fast and Furious operation, it was later learned.
3. More than 2,000 guns were sold to suspected criminals thought to be linked to Mexican drug gangs in the two years of the operation under the Obama presidency.
A similar operation took place years before under the Bush administration. Called "Operation Wide Receiver," it also failed in tracking down gun and drug traffic, Bloomberg Businessweek reported.
4. Agents came forward in 2010 to speak with Sen. Charles Grassley, a Republican from Iowa who was a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee. Grassley began to work with GOP Rep. Darrell Issa of California, who chaired the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. ATF director Ken Melson, who would later be moved to a different position, began talking secretly with Grassley and Issa.

5. Following moves by the White House to use executive privilege in an attempt to halt emails related to the case, and contempt of Congress charges against Attorney General Eric Holder in 2012, many documents were finally handed over to Issa’s House Oversight Committee in November 2014.
Emails from Holder reveal his contempt for the committee — he refers to Issa "and his idiot cronies," the Wall Street Journal reported.
6. Emails released to Judicial Watch, a group that filed suit to obtain legal documents from the Justice Department, show Holder’s direct involvement with officials throughout the Justice Department and the ATF in how to handle congressional inquiries and ways to format talking points about Fast and Furious.
7. The operation started to fall apart inside as U.S. Attorney Dennis Burke, who headed the Phoenix office, became angry with Special Agent John Dodson for reporting on the bungled program before Congress.
Burke, who was later forced to resign in 2011, leaked information about Dodson’s activities in the operation to Fox News. An inspector general’s report cited Burke’s actions in violation of Justice Department policy.
8. It has been alleged by the National Rife Association and the New American that the killing of hundreds of Mexicans and even some U.S. law enforcement officers because of the Fast and Furious program was going to be used by the Barack Obama administration as an excuse for more gun control.

You should have realized by now that your topic was petty and silly and that it's time to abandon it.

That's what the report says, isn't it?
Maybe you'd like a moment to reflect on the wisdom of interjecting your initial post into a thread about current events.
But if not, I'll understand.

Simply drawing a comparison which undermines your accusation, is all. Politics, Leg-iron, politics.

Being that Biden has barely passed a year in office, how much do you want to bet this person was in the country before his term even was started? How much do you want to bet the title is just more boring trollshit?
You are really underestimating the number. Over ten million guns have been sold to criminals linked to the Mexican drug gangs. Almost all not just in the USA, but in Texas. The parts of Mexico across the border from California are much less violent than the parts close to Texas. More than 99.9% of illegal handguns in Mexico come from the USA, and about 99% come from Texas. The vast majority of illegal rifles also come from the USA, but at least there are a few coming from stealing from the army, or smuggling from Central America.
And yet, America and more specifically Texas does nothing. There are young ladies who claim to have a thousand guns stolen from them a year. We all know they are lying, but they are funding so much business in Texas nothing is done about it.
Texas is a disgrace to America.
