"A demand for these drugs in the United States is what is helping keep these cartels in business ... more than 90% of the guns recovered in Mexico come from the United States," President Barack Obama said Thursday.
However, Fox News debunked this claim weeks ago: "It's just not true. In fact, it's not even close. The fact is, only 17 percent of guns found at Mexican crime scenes have been traced to the U.S."

It’s true if you round 17 up to the nearest 90.
If he won’t let the deaths of 100 million people because of socialism get in his way, why would he bother about the source Mexico’s guns. He’s got another 50 million fetuses to abort as well. He’s an important man, don-cha-know.
do I have this right that it is CNN again pushing the obama line .
Then fox actually gets the facts and CNN ,MSNBC wonder why they are going down the toilet
The liberals keep harping on the AK-47. How many are produced in the USA? I don’t know of any. With all the drug contraband coming into Mexico from countries other than the USA one would think illegal weapons could just as easily come from the same sources. Blaming the USA is just plain folly.
Reading through the OAS Firearms Convention Treaty that Obama wants to ratify, the treaty itself states that most guns are coming from Venezuela, Africa, the former Soviet Union, and other nations, and NOT from the United States.
Yes and how many UNrecovered guns come from the US?
Don’t know? Can’t know? Make up the numbers, you POS. You do it for everything else.
Fire the Liar!!
I’m sure that statistic was right next to the “13 kids a day die by gunfire” one.
I see he’s back on his Bash America tour.
0bama, U R AN IDIOT!
haven’t we learned, it’s not what he says but how nicely he says it? /sarc
Gungrabbers have no tools except lies and deception.
“Reading through the OAS Firearms Convention Treaty that Obama wants to ratify, the treaty itself states that most guns are coming from Venezuela, Africa, the former Soviet Union, and other nations, and NOT from the United States.”
The Bamster is counting on the American people being clueless lumps of coal who will just blindly accept as truth and fact anything he cares to utter. He has the willing and eager cooperation of the media and academia in this regard.
there you go....pointing out facts....
when will you radical right wing extremists (possible man-made disasterers) ever learn~!????
Liar.
Amen!
If some guns do come from the USA, aren’t they being sent to Mexico by the same illegal aliens that Sheriff Arpaio gets yell at for arresting?
0 tells it the way he wants it to be, and the 0media reports it as true. It’s a lazy, lying lunacy, but it works for them.
