GAO Report Blames U.S. Gun Laws for Mexican Crime

See, the problem is, criminals laugh at all the laws against illegal purchases and international arms trafficking that we have now--those are for the suckers who obey them. But if we can just enact a few more prohibitions that will affect the "law-abiding," why everything will fall into place!

And we can confidently make these recommendations while admitting that the data we're using to extrapolate a conclusion is nowhere near complete. But once we get those "bureaucratic problems" ironed out, why, we "expect to fix" that any time now. In the mean time, let's pass more 'gun control" edicts! [More]

Today's Gun Rights Examiner looks at reports about a new report. I hope to have a report on the actual report later today, and will report on that here.

Got it?

Also learn about an arrogant politician in Oregon, get more info on that KABA fundraiser, and read the latest from my fellow GREs.

Tell a friend?

"ATF did not tell ICE about a covert operation where ATF agents delivered weapons across the border..." That should be the beginning of an investigation by...uhh...nevermind.

"...in an attempt to ferret out the Mexican organizations receiving illegal arms." In an attempt? If they delivered the guns then they KNOW who it is! Geepers, ya think they could have called in General Reno and a couple of platoons of tanks?

"ATF should have notified ICE about the controlled attempt to export weapons illegally, the GAO said." You mean to tell me, that one federal agency must notify another agency anytime they do something specifically illegal? Why thats rediculous!

"Lack of coordination raised the chances that the weapons could end up in the wrong hands." Does that mean that if two agencies were in on it, the ATF might not have sold guns illegally to criminal elements in Mexico?

Whats the world coming to?
