More reporting needed on Fast and Furious

I'm curious. When will your paper report more on Fast and Furious? An operation to sneak guns across Mexico's border, by ATF, and probably DEA, the FBI, perhaps the State Department and CIA. The operation was intended to cast in disrepute the 2nd Amendment.

The result? One dead U.S. Border Patrol agent and one dead U.S. immigration agent, plus several hundred Mexican military, police and civilian personnel from Fast and Furious guns. All done without the consent and knowledge of the Mexican government.

Besides numerous violations of U.S. law, some might consider this an act of war, or at the least violations of ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations).

The senior senator from Iowa has performed a yeoman's effort attempting to get to the bottom of this scandal.

Apparently violations of U.S. and international law, the deaths of U.S. law enforcement officers and several hundred Mexicans, doesn't provoke much interest in professional journalists such as you.
