Most Freepers knew it. People like myself were criticized, labeled crackpots and worse for even suggesting BHO would begin his plan for fundamentally changing the USA to the USSA. Geeze it's only been 18 mos. and we are well on our way.amazingly, there are lots of folks that are still in denial and claim BHO is doing a good job.
Well, hang on...Illinois will still have plenty of democrats left to make it fun for the next administration...
And for us...;-)
“If only there was some kind of device..a barrier of some sort that could be constructed along the border to keep those guns out. If only someone would invent such a device.”
A fence. It is called a fence.
Minefields help, too.
Looks like they found job security working for the cartels now...
The Mexican President needs to get his own house in order before coming to our hood to preach down on us...
So figure the odds...hehehe
I'm sure they do. We'll probably have to repeal the Second Amendment in order to harmonize our laws with the forward thinking of UN treaty-writers and leading NGO's who've been pioneering these issues for 20 years now.
Of course, we'll have to repeal administratively, since there's every indication the People won't go along and aren't willing to be educated. Sometimes you just have to get out there and lead, you know? It's the burden of the vanguard.

When I saw Pres. Luis Echeverria Campins's bodyguards near my Cancun hotel in 1980, they were armed with CAR-15's and M-16's for the most part, and wearing black fatigues.
Well said.
Actually, that would most likely be the M-16's made by FN, a Belgian company, in their US subsidiary in South Carolina for the US military who then in turn transfers them to the Mexican military where they find their way to the drug cartels.
Bring it on, bitches!
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
How many of the illegal Mexicans in the US came from Mexico? 100% OBAMA should tell Mexico to stop the invasion from illegals before we talk about guns.
Arms, including IEDs are brought into Mexico from China, No. Korea, etc. it’s all been documented.
Some journalists in Mexico see the truth.....most of them are murdered for it.

“A fractured nation” – Portion of an op/col by Mauricio Merino, titled as shown.
I ask myself if it is possible to build a national identity on the basis of a fractured national cohesion. But what we are experiencing in the year of the Bi-Centennial is instead one of the most tragic and violent moments of our history. Pure violence, with no reference to the memory of the epics of our rebellion. I’m anguished to think that a mixture of egoisms, over-indulgences, ire, loss of hope and impunity has favored the ever more frequent rebirth of crime groups.
Mexico is a hostile place, where there is no hope for a prosperous and peaceful life; where poverty is overcome by taking money from someone who already has it. Where the shortcut to dignity and life consists of disobedience of the laws and of formal authorities.[snip]

Parse the info, people:
75,000 guns seized.
80% OF THOSE TRACED....
They may have only tried to trace 2,000 of those 75,000 guns.
Other threads here on FR have said the same thing.
They are NOT tracing each & every weapon. They are skewing the results.
Special unit. When I saw the kid, wearing standard green Mexican army fatigues, at the "agricultural checkpoint", between Yucatan and Campeche states (on the road from Merida to Campeche) he was armed with a G-3. Kid was behind a brick wall of some sort. The fat old guy did the inspection, the kid provided overwatch, just in case the Suburban with a mixed batch of Gringos and Campechanos was smuggling bacon into Yucatan. :)
