Former ATF agent John Dodson takes his experience with the government’s transformation of law enforcement to warn the American people. “Your government is not here to serve you anymore…you can’t trust your government.”
In an episode of “The Glenn Beck Podcast,” Glenn talks with John Dodson, the whistleblower who exposed the ATF “gun-walking” scandal known more famously as Operation Fast and Furious. It led to the death of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry and others.
For those who are unfamiliar with Fast and Furious, the Arizona ATF used the tactic of gun-walking, or “letting guns walk”, to run a series of sting operations between 2006 and 2011 in the Tucson and Phoenix area. The ATF “purposely allowed licensed firearms dealers to sell weapons to illegal straw buyers, hoping to track the guns to Mexican drug cartel leaders and arrest them.”
However, as of October 2011, none of the targeted high-level cartel figures had been arrested. The operation was so ill-conceived and fraught with incompetence, that many people came to believe it was more about disarming Americans, using the excuse that cartel guns were all coming from America.
