UPDATE: “Fast & Furious”; Remember Brian Terry – Killed December 15, 2010 April 27, 2012

UPDATE: Fox news is reporting that “House GOP leaders said Friday they are pursuing a plan to hold Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. and the Justice Department in contempt for “stonewalling” them over information regarding the administration’s failed Fast and Furious gun-tracking program.” 

Brian Terry and I served together in the US Marines in the early 1990’s.  He was a good friend, a good Marine and a good person.  After the Marines Brian went on to be a police officer and Border Patrol Agent and member of the Border Patrol Tactical Unit (BORTAC). On December 15th, 2010 he was killed by border bandits armed with AK 47s.  Brian was armed only with ‘less than lethal’ weapons.  The weapons used to kill Agent Terry were later confirmed to be part of the ATF Fast & Furious program in which weapons were allowed by the ATF to be purchased and smuggled into Mexico.   This program was endorsed by current Atty General Eric Holder.  This is not a political post.  Please remember Agent Brian Terry and, if possible, purchase a bumper sticker or t-shirt in remembrance of him.  www.RememberBrianTerry.com
