A Lot Easier than "Where's Waldo?"

How many Citizen Disarmament Talking Points can YOU find in this AP "report" by "authorized journalist" Ioan Grillo?

What is an "Armor piercing pistol"?
Do you touch any part of the pistol to armor and it sides through like a hot knife through butter so you can then shoot the people inside the tank? And what is a "cop killer pistol"? Is that a specific make or model? Obviously I couldn't get past the first paragraph.

"Mexico City gun enthusiast Daniel Aguilera described illegally buying a submachine gun from vendors in the capital's Tepito barrio who let him test the merchandise on a stack of cans in a tenement building."

And a select fire SMG came from the US??? Ah, yeah, sure it did.....

Delivered by Santa's elves know doubt.

Let's offer Mexico a deal:

You keep your people, we'll keep our guns.

You take back all your people, we'll take back all our guns.

"Particularly worrisome are U.S. sales of Belgian-made FN-57 pistols. These fire bullets that "will defeat most body armor in military service around the world today," "


That reporter managed to hit the whole gambit of talking points. I own one of these, and I guarantee it's not punching through body armor with any ammunition I can buy.

Now my .270 is an entirely different matter. Body armor? What body armor?

We should give a damn about Mexico's problems, why???

Because they have been so cooperative in aiding our Border Patrol. Ok, maybe we should distribute maps, and provisions for gun smugglers going into Mexico, after all, it's only right that we not let the poor downtrodden arms smuggler face any consequences. Much the same as Mexico treats drug and terrorist smugglers coming this way.

We could give arms smugglers consular ID papers and protest if they are apprehended. It is the least we should do for such a neighbor.
