18. F&F worked how again?
The investigation netted 20 indictments so far, how many of these were the cartel leaders in Mexico, you know that ones that were the "stated"
target of F&F from the beginning? None? Exactly,, so how again did F&F work, and at what cost, in lives both here and in Mexico?

20 indictments of low level suspected straw purchasers, for the low low cost of two dead federal agents, scores of dead Mexican citizens, and who knows how many still to come?

If that is an example of our ATF at work, maybe we should ask them to just STOP!!!
