[QUOTE="soberups, post: 664637, member: 14668"] Not really. Article 10 of the Mexican Constitution does give Mexicans a [I]theoretical[/I] right to keep handguns in their homes....but the wording also gives the government the unlimited ability to [I]restrict[/I] that right to the point that it is worthless. [I]Article 10: The inhabitants of the United Mexican States have a right to arms in their homes, for security and legitimate defense, [U]with the exception of arms prohibited by federal law and those reserved for the exclusive use of the Army, Navy, Air Force and National Guard.[/U] Federal law will determine the cases, conditions, requirements, and places in which the carrying of arms will be authorized to the inhabitants.[/I] The [I]reality....[/I] is that guns of greater than.380 caliber are totally forbidden, and the the combination of licensing requirments, corruption, and a goverment monopoly on the sale of guns and ammunition (there is only [B]one[/B] gun shop in the entire [B]country[/B]) has net effect of making gun ownership virtually impossible for anyone except the wealthy and well-connected. And, of course, criminals. You have every right to dislike guns Klein...but if you are going to post facts to support your position, please make sure those facts are accurate. [/QUOTE]
