“What’s this? Now the Mexican Government wants us to provide them with police forces as well?”

Well, yes. After all, the problems in Mexico (according to them!) are ALL our fault...our guns get down there!

I’ve been thinking about this ‘gun’ angle the Mexicans are pushing. We both know any US citizen going into Mexico with a gun or even ammunition is going to jail. If guns are coming into Mexico from the US it’s under the guidance of those in charge in Mexico and they darn well know it!
That old excuse just doesn’t fly.

You hit the nail on the head, AuntB!

The gun issue, supposedly being pushed by the Mexican Government is a pack of lies. According to what I read most of the guns used by the cartels, in this war are capable of full automatic fire, those are not coming from the U.S. in any numbers.

I seem to remember during the Clinton Administration, a shipping container of Chineese full auto Ak47s with a destination of Mexico, being apprehended at a port in the Pacific Northwest. It was stated at the time, it was one of three containers of weapons bound for Mexico, the other two made it through from what I read.
