cirby: HBK:
/I mean, he got Cs from the state's farm college

It may be called "Texas Agricultural and Mechanical," but calling it "the state's farm college" is a bit... dishonest.

It's a highly-ranked national university, and it's pretty big - about 45,000 students.


And their bonfires are fabulous. Ever since they moved teh best little whorehouse in Texas to the capital, things just haven't been the same.

Well, to be fair, every gun shop owner should know what Eric Holder looks like by now.. Can't excuse this shop for selling him guns..

globalwarmingpraiser: Ok, given all of the fast and furious Crap pulled by the ATF I am going to with hold judgement.

Agreed.
It wouldn't be the first time the ATF raided a gun shop and found guns. Considering the Feds past behavior, it's probably just some paperwork screwup that they're milking for a free headline.

/Which means its bad news, for Perry.

quatchi: Perry issues award and commends a gun shop in Texas with the word Eagle in their name for 76 years in business and 2 years later the shop gets popped for selling guns to smugglers?

No, the gun store is (was?) called the Hesles Gun Store. The town's named Eagle Pass.

And if this is indicative of cartels making inroads into South Texas, then they've made it in about 1000 feet. Seriously, that's how close this gun store is to the border.

Ah, see that now. TY for correction. Did not realize it was literally "on the border" either.

That term can and has been used somewhat nebulously before.

Only been to Texas once. San Antonio is a pretty city around Christmas time.

Shhh, I'm trying to get outraged at hypotheticals that never happened while ignoring what actually did in order to excuse it.

But this story doesnt have anything to really do with Perry either. He awarded that title to the place, later they changed ownership and then screwed up. Its stupid to blame him for giving the title then when this happened later, if anyone is.

Perry gave a small business praise for their hard work, and LIEberals sing and dance when that small business goes under because Big Brother DHS is trying to frame people to get the heat off for Fast and Furious. They're arresting these men for selling bullets, which can't even be tracked across the border. Not that that's ever stopped Herr Holder.

0bama gives a 'small business' half a billion dollars of other people's labor and the Dimocrat Party steps on their own tongues trying to explain how that's no big deal and we really shouldn't care about it anyway. I bet if we gave Solyndra $500 of ammo instead of $500 million of stolen money, the Dims would be just as happy to see them shut down.

You can't really blame the submitter....he just linked to it and came up with the stupid headline.

See the funny thing about fronts for illegal activities that the people commiting the crime don't really tell anyone.
