A trio of Democratic U.S. senators called for tougher firearms laws and regulations after releasing a report that showed a large number of weapons used by Mexico drug gangs originating north of the border.

More than 70 percent of 29,284 firearms submitted to the U.S. Department of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms for tracing by the Mexican government during 2009 and 2010 originated in the United States, according to the report.

The arms smuggling isn’t the problem, GLOBALISM IS!

Do you know of any other sources?
Not yet. Everything goes to the same pdf file.
Feinstein, Schumer, Whitehouse Report Calls for Stronger U.S. Response to Firearms Trafficking to Mexico

I'll look around for you or a bit and see what I can find.

Nothing at either Schumer or Whitehouse's web pages.

With the full approval and cooperation of the BATFE so they can say "See! See! The 2nd Amendment is BAD."

Thus the true purpose and agenda of Fast And Furious/Gunwalker is revealed by the ATF’s willing lackies in the MSM.

Many criminals in the US originate in Mexico.

Same link at United States Senate Caucus on International Narcotics Control

From a very cursory look everything seems to be going to the Feinstein link.

Sorry about that.
As I'm learning AdBlock and NoScript might present some problems if you have them on your system so if you have them you may need to look there for a solution as well.

They have full auto AK’s. I can’t buy one.

They are not getting them from Walmart.

Many of the Mexican drug gang members originate from Mexico.

How many of these are from the ‘Gun-walker’ program?

While an important question, it's not really the main one as it concerns this topic. The vast majority of guns, grenades, rocket launchers, and such were provided by the U.S. government to the thugocracy that is the mexican government, which subsequently find their way into the criminals in the general population.

The bottom line: They aren't buying grenades at gun shows.

My Adobe said something about not having ghostscript or something on that order. I'll try to find out more about that. I sure would like to see what lies this bunch is telling now.

It never ceases to amaze me that the same pukes in the CONgress are putting this crap up that helped push the Clinton-Era AWB.

Sounds like you might need to get an Adobe update. What are you on...version 7 or 8?

Not me. They just can't help themselves in their rush to totalitarianism. And if it isn't them in particular it'll be someone just like them.

Version 8
Then a newer version may solve your viewing problems. They're up to 10 already.

So, the logic is this: That we should be denied the right to own certain guns because our neighbors to the South are unruly, mean, kill people, and deal drugs.

If they were kind, peaceful, considerate, and humanitarian, then, we'd be allowed to own any of these weapons currently slated for a ban.

Well, I don't happen to subscribe to the notion that what non-Americans do with weapons of any kind should have any bearing on what an American citizen may own or possess. Otherwise, some Italian abusing a slingshot could put slingshot owners in legal jeopardy. The assumption is absurd on it's face.
