Is your number of Mexicans killed a number directly related to only F&F guns? The over all murder rate for suspected drug killings in Mexico is substantially higher. For example, in 2010 in Ciudad Juárez (across from El Paso) 3,115 murders were reported an average of eight murders a day, according to the El Diario de Juarez.

You are correct —I’m using the most popular and I believe VERY conservative number.
The son of the Sinaloa Cartel was deported to Illinois and is on trial there —he has stated he believes that the number is in the THOUSANDS.
The number 300 only comes when they find an F&F weapon on the ground, and there is a body nearby —who REALLY believes that they’re using it only ONE time, and then throwing it down..?
It’s far more likely any recovered F&F weapons has been used in MANY previous murders.
Good point, and I agree.
