Why would you assume that? Illegal guns in Canada would sell for a much higher price so why run the risk of crossing the border? It would be like smuggling fentanyl into Mexico. Given the number of terrorists that surely crossed our southern border that is exactly where I think the guns were going.
“Why would you assume that?”
Because:
1) It is the simplest option. I don’t preclude that terrorists, gangstas, and generic criminals will end up with most of the guns. I just think it more likely that the sales will be through the Chicago gang network rather than one big shipment to a coordinated terrorist group.
2) If there were any evidence of it being linked to terrorists, the feds would have taken credit already, and Biden would be telling us he lost his son Beau in a related gunbattle.
The other parts: we are saying the same thing.
