[QUOTE="soberups, post: 759085, member: 14668"] [b]Re: A shooting that erupted after an employee's disciplinary hearing left nine people[/b] Incorrect. 95% of the guns [B]with traceable serial numbers [/B]that are recovered from Mexican crime scenes come from the USA. [B]Less than 1/3[/B] of of the guns recovered are traceable. The fully-automatic rifles and grenade launchers that the cartels are using are [B]not coming from the USA[/B]. They are[B] illegal[/B] here and cannot simply be bought at US gun shops and smuggled across the border as so many ignorant people seem to think. These weapons are of Eastern Bloc (Russian, Rumanian or Chinese) manufacture, and are being smuggled in from South America or overseas. There are literally millions of these weapons available on the worldwide black market, a remnant of the Cold War when the Russians provided them to Communist client states. A significant portion of the American-built weapons in cartel posession have been bought from corrupt Mexican army or police sources. Contrary to popular belief, guns are one of the most tightly regulated items made or sold in the US. The idea that "thousands of machine guns are being legally bought in US gun stores and smuggled across the border" is a [B]myth. [/B] [/QUOTE]
