    The Truth About Arms Trafficking in Mexico

    Because self defense is a sacred right

    The Truth About Arms Trafficking in Mexico

    and the lies designed to demonize YOUR guns

    Gun grabbers will say anything.

    From CATO@LIBERTY

    The fact is that out of 29,000 firearms picked up in Mexico over the last two-year period for which data is available, 5,114 of the 6,000 traced guns came from the United States. While that is 90% of traced guns, it means that only 17% of recovered guns come from the United States civilian market.

    Where did the rest come from? A number of places. To begin with, over 150,000 Mexican soldiers have deserted in the last six years for the better pay and benefits of cartel life, some taking their issued M-16 rifles with them.

    Surprisingly, a significant number of the arms are coming to the cartels via legitimate transactions. They are produced and exported legally every year, regulated by the State Department as Direct Commercial Sales. FY 2007 figures for the full exports are available here, and State's report on end-use is available here, alleging widespread fraud and use of front companies to funnel the weapons into the black market. This doesn't even take into account the thousands of weapons floating around Latin America from previous wars of liberation. This Los Angeles Times article also shows how the cartels are getting hand grenades, rocket launchers, and other devices you can't pick up at your local sporting goods store.

    Yesterday we reported that the ATF (Bureau
    of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms) has been caught
    red-handed actively aiding criminals in the illegal
    export of firearms (including 50 caliber rifles!)
    from the US to Mexican drug gangs.

    At least one of these ATF-faciliated weapons turns
    out to have been used to murder a US border patrol
    agent.

    Gun store owners warned the ATF about what was going
    on.

    They were ignored.

    ATF agents on the ground warned their superiors.

    They were told to "shut up" and follow orders
    and that the orders came from the top, straight
    from Bushbama's Department of Justice.

    So what exactly did these government criminals have
    in mind when they enabled the flow of US weapons to
    Mexico?

    Well, if you've been listening to Osama Bushbama and his
    fellow anti-2nd ammendment nuts over the last few years,
    the've been singing the song that: "90% of the guns
    that criminals in Mexico have come from the US."

    There's just one problem with that story: It happens to
    be a straight up lie.

    But it looks like Bushbama & Company have beeen doing their
    best behind the scenes to make it so by ordering ATF agents
    in the field (via the Department of Justice) to stand down
    and let illegal weapons exports flow unimpeded to
    Mexico.

    Here's the all-important back story that no one is
    connecting to this scandal. (From our friends at 2nd
    Amendment TV)

    Connecting the dots...

    Many countries I suspect supply weapons to the cartels, very big supply/ logistics problem to feed weapons and ammo to over 100,000 members, this is not a small operation and Mexico releases only info they feel feeds the theory that America is the problem.
    How many military weapons stolen from army depots by corrupt military members in Mexico, think they trace those.

    Once again stop the flow of money south and most of the problems go away, stopping 2000-3000 guns is a waste of manpower/money.
    I'm old with many opinions few solutions.
