even mexican politicians are liars?? who wouldve thought

Funny, if its true the Mexicans wouldn't have any issue handing over lists of serial numbers of those confiscated weapons.... IT would help us trace where they are getting them. Unfortunately, they aren't helping us very much.. Empty claims.

mexico is a disgrace and their politicians are even more of a disgrace.

they should not have any credibility and they deserve what they get for banning guns. Everyone knows banning guns means more violence and gun laws have never worked. They are stupid and will never fix their country.

Obama's minions are probably putting them up to it, I'm sure they have a secret quid pro quo going on over this. It's a win-win situation for both parties concerned. Obama and company want us to believe the guns came from here so they can use it as yet another excuse to start grabbing guns (as Hillary and Holder have recently asserted). And on the Mexican end, their govt is weak and corrupt, so it gets them off the hook if they can claim it's our fault. Our own government officials publically agree with them and give them the cover they need. Both parties benefit from putting this falsehood forward.

Remember, it's all about crisis. Economic crisis for bailouts, social crisis for socialist reforms, climate crisis for carbon taxes/regulation, and security crisis for invading our privacy and denuding our liberties. And now, a "gun crisis" south of the border caused by US, necessitating gun control.

The funny thing is that 90% of drugs in the US come from Mexico, so why don't they just ban Mexican drugs then all drug use will stop...........wait Mexican Drugs are Illegal but people are still doing drugs?..........but an Assault Weapons ban would definitely work right?......god I hate the logic of politicians.

Easier to blame someone else than to fix your own problems.

Obama's minions are probably putting them up to it,

Yahtzee!

They are trying to build a case that we should add more gun control, particularly the evil black rifles that slaughter so many innocent Mexicans.

Add to this the recent shootings and we can probably expect some movement in congress on Obama's AWB.

Maybe the f'ing Mexicans need to build a fence. I think Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi should hold their breaths until they agree to do so.

they have, I posted this in another thread out of the 27,000 guns the mexican gov't confiscated they picked out roughly 6,000 ( all of American design ) and sent them to the atf to figure out where they came from, 90 % of the 6,000 ( the magic percentage the dem's got and are running with ) where from the us, but the little bit of info that seems to be forgotten is they came from the US government which where shipped to central america. I forget off the top of my head which conflict it was they where shipped to, but they ended up in mexico.

Do you think with a FOIA request we could find this out?

Where would we start?

maybe the atf, i have a good friend on the inside who had to do a report on this a while ago while most of it was still classified.

Until they hand over serial numbers on the firearms, they can STFU.

Now you see, I think we actually NEED to ship weapons to criminals in mexico.

20 million of them, full auto.

You stop sending and supporting illegal aliens, we'll stop sending weapons.

There, we take the blame on a claim that isn't supported, now call our bluff and stop sending people over the border.
