Mexico's Gun Problems

It looks like the current administration is attempting to leverage problems with the drug gangs in Mexico as a reason to step on our 2A rights. Apparently, BHO and crew believe that all of Mexico's drug gang killings are a result of illegal firearms being sent across the border into Mexico from the U.S. As a result, the feds are looking at additional laws to curtail this mysterious southerly migration of firearms.

Mexico has a serious problem with these drug gangs who use military style weapons including grenade launchers, TOW missiles and a host of full-auto weapons to claim their territory in the lucrative drug trade. BHO and team feel that these weapons are coming from the U.S and therefore more laws need to be passed to prevent this.

Let's examine some facts. Mexico already has some very strict gun laws in place. Not to mention, the illegality of smuggling drugs across the border into the U.S. These drugs typically from Central America and Mexico is just a way point into the U.S.

Now since Mexico already bans both the weapons and drugs, it would appear that this problem has been solved by legislation. However, the so-called border wars continue to rage.

The majority of the weapons being used by these gangs are truly military weapons, grenades, grenade launchers and fully automatic weapons are all hard to come by here in the U.S. However, BHO doesn't realize that there are already laws on the books on both sides of the border that prohibit possession of both the guns and the drugs. Additional laws will be ignored by these gangs just as the current ones are.

If indeed there is a risk of this violence spreading across the border from Mexico, there it is one more reason that we need to get the barriers in place to limit border crossings. In addition, if I were one of the residents near the border, you can bet that I would be armed at all times in order to protect myself and my property from these gangs. BHO would prefer that you become an unarmed victim instead.

Our government has failed to secure our southern border from the daily incursions from unarmed illegals. How the hell are they going to respond to an armed gang with nefarious attempt that wishes to use the same methods of entry?

A word to BHO and crew, lock down the border. Plain and simple. Stop the illegals from crossing the border heading north and you will stop any weapons heading south as well. Securing our border will keep the illegals out that are not only taking jobs from U.S. citizens but also will prevent the flow of drugs into this country, weapons (if there are any) that are heading south and keep the currency that the illegals are sending home here in the country.

Damn that seems like a simple solution to a whole host of problems.
