The Mass Killings Leftists Won’t Talk About

Hint: It involves Fast and Furious.

Every time an armed sociopath goes on a murderous rampage, leftists — before any facts are even known — quickly and collectively demand additional gun control measures. But in cities like Chicago, hundreds of lives are taken every year, mostly by gang members, though the majority of Americans generally won’t find news of their deaths floating across their television screens. The reason has to do with the circumstances. The same deafening response to issues like urban violence will be repeated regarding the scores of people we now know have been murdered through Barack Obama’s Fast and Furious gun control scheme.

According to Judicial Watch, “Justice Department documents [reveal] that weapons sent from the U.S. into Mexico as part of the Obama administration’s Operation Fast and Furious gunrunning program have been widely used by major Mexican drug cartels. According to the new records, over the past three years, a total of 94 Fast and Furious firearms have been recovered in Mexico City and 12 Mexican states, with the majority being seized in Sonora, Chihuahua and Sinaloa. Of the weapons recovered, 82 were rifles and 12 were pistols identified as having been part of the Fast and Furious program. Reports suggest the Fast and Furious guns are tied to at least 69 killings.”

All lives matter. Sadly, the media believes mass killings are worth covering only when the circumstances surrounding their deaths fit the narrative. That narrative doesn’t include a government-sanctioned program that resulted in dozens of murders.
