What the heck happened to 'transparency' and 'accountability' in government?

My favorite quote is towards the end when Henigan says they need to be destroyed because "They clearly were used as military guns."  Ergo, all military weapons should be destroyed.  I'm heading out to my back yard right now and hoarding all the rocks before they decide they need to be banned as well!

Dirty bastards. So many things wrong with this. For instance, IF (I know a huge leap) the gubmint was smart they'd buy these from the So Koreans for cheap then sell them for a markup. Even at a couple hundred $$ a piece these are worth hundreds of millions of $$......we are being 'led' by children. Foolish, ideologue children.

Someone needs to tell South Korea to wait 2.5 years, then we can buy them back after Obongo and the Wookie leave the Whitehouse.

I read about this somewhere else too, it would be a shame to see all of those good rifles go to waste.

I"m sure it's just that Korea refused to pay >nameless world power< under the table. I bet they thought it was a done deal and the US could not stop the sale because it would require a plausable deniability magic act. Taa Daaaaaaaa

This was originally approved last year.  You can find a lot of industry news articles from last year announcing the plan.

Hopefully the Koreans have the foresight to just hold on to them for another few years...

There is a thread on the high road site where they are encouraging us to contact our representatives.

I Emailed Ben.  I encourage every one to send him an email or a phone call.

Thanks Mizzly, for posting that link and for acting on this.  I have emailed Ben, Mike and Lee. I too encourage everyone to do act on this.

That is a good idea....too bad Ben gave up actually representing Nebraskans a long time ago.

Assholes. I'd better hurry up and buy a CMP Garand before they manage to do away with the CMP, too.
