Hint [via borderlandbeat.com]: you’re looking at 40 AK-47s, nine AR-15s, an M-16, a grenade launcher and more than 11k rounds of ammunition. Hint II: It’s not Bob’s Gun Store. We’d know that for deffo if Mexico reported the guns’ serial numbers, as they used to do. Post-Fast and Furious, the Mexican government destroys the firearms. PR problem solved. Never mind. There’s plenty of anecdotal evidence (e.g., nearly 150k bodies) to suggest the Mexican cartels have sufficient guns and ammo to destroy the rule of law in their home country. And Guatemala. Bolivia. Colombia. All of South America, really. And not without their governments’ help. Which is why the Fast and Furious scandal still has a lid on it; Uncle Sam has been playing ball with the bad guys since ever. Not to mention the fact that U.S. drug users are sending the bad guys an estimated $1b cash money per week. And we worry about Syria?
