President Barack Obama, speaking in Mexico City on Friday, said the United States is responsible for much of the crime and violence in Mexico because of the demand for drugs and the illegal smuggling of guns across the southern border.
Obama acknowledged the illegal smuggling of guns into Mexico by American criminals, but did not mention the Justice Departments Operation Fast and Furious that allowed the flow of about 2,000 U.S. guns to Mexican drug trafficking organizations. Fast and Furious began in the fall of 2009 and was halted in December 2010 after two of the weapons from the DOJ gun walking program were found at the murder scene of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry.

People in Mexico choose to use a firearm in an evil manner. Who in their right mind could slaughter others while their hands are tied behind their backs, then cut their heads off or hang them from bridges and so forth?
This isn't a gun problem. You could remove every damn gun from Messy-co and these same evil people would use machetes or swords.
You would still see piles of bodies...just not shot, but hacked to death.
Liberals are killing this country.

Obama’s gun running was a problem, and his Choom Gang activities another. He is projecting on America again.

Obama and democrats hate Americans, they hate America and our freedoms
Obama is bad mouthing America in a foreign country , inviting mexicans to invade the U.S.A and the news media is silent on this
Obama and democrats including the news media are the enemy of Americans, they are traitors. And we sit here complaining when we know what we have to do .We in Louisiana are ready . I wonder if people in other states are

>>Obama acknowledged the illegal smuggling of guns into Mexico by American criminals<<
Furthermore, if the federal government would do their job and protect our borders, this crap would stop. Instead of troops in the middle east, put thousands of troops along the border and into Messy-co by about 15 miles. Deploy scores of patrol boats in the Guff of Messy-co, off the Baja to CA. coast.
This whole smuggling this and or that would stop almost immediately. This whole issue falls right on to the shoulders of those in our gubbamint from Bush to Clinton to Bush to Obozo to these silly @$$ senators and reps.
To blame American gun shops and American citizens is nothing more than a commie plot to disarm America!

No, Mr. President, you are the reason.

Talk about nerve! Obama is the greatest arms smuggler on earth. He specifically ran guns to Mexican drug lords. Obama sent weapons to Al Quaeda in Libya. He is now sending weapons to Al Quaeda in Syria. And he gets all pious on a Mexican podium, blaming U.S. citizenry for running guns. Obama is one skinny-a$$ed LIAR!

Simple solution - send the drug users to Mexico with the illegals.
