The man was transporting weapons into China. Private gun ownership is illegal in China.<br /><br />In 2007, the former Blackwater private military firm came under a federal investigation when it was discovered that former employees of the firm were involved in smuggling weapons into Iraq from the United States. Two ex-Blackwater employees, Kenneth Caldwell and William Grumiaux, pleaded guilty to the possession of stolen firearms in violation of interstate and foreign commerce laws. Both agreed to cooperate with federal investigators.<br /><br />Ironically, when the House Oversight and Government Affairs Committee investigated Blackwater and its chairman Erik Prince in 2007, it was current committee chairman Representative Darrel Issa, who charged that the then-committee chairman, Democrat Henry Waxman, was engaged in a witch hunt against Blackwater and Prince. Referring to Prince, Issa stated that the committee report on Prince and Blackwater was "an attempt to paint this gentleman and his company" in an unfavorable light to appease "Democrat eyes." Last October, Issa, as chairman, sent a letter to President Obama in which he wrote that several questions originally posed by Waxman about Blackwater's State Department contracts, which were assumed by its two successors, Xe Services and Academi, were never adequately answered by either the Bush or Obama administrations.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-50060144954731191812012-07-06T03:38:27.452-05:002012-07-06T03:38:27.452-05:00Hi Mike
