Guns and more being smuggled into Mexico
KVOA TUCSON ^ | 11/16/10 | Unspecified

A-T-F- says since they initiated "Project Gun Runner" which is tracing weapons, their prosecutions have gone up 50 percent and their investigations up 109%.

He also says a recent program called e-trace, an electronic database that can trace the manufacture, import, sale and ownership of guns will be helpful here in the U-S as well as in Mexico.

e-trace, another name for gun registration

Darn right. Resist! Rage, rage against the dying of freedom's light! The BATFU exists for no other purpose than to take our freedom away.

I wonder how many of the guns that are smuggled across the border are going to narco/terror gangs and how many of them are going to law abiding Mexican citizens who can’t buy any firearms to protect themselves against said narco/terror gangs. I mean, why would these drug dealers want to buy a semi auto rifle when they can get full autos?

Simply more propaganda. The Mexicans are using all kinds of weapons not even availablein the US.

“The Mexicans are using all kinds of weapons not even available in the US.”

Sniff, why do third-worlders get to have more neat toys than us? So much for the fiction of the “Land of the Free and Home of the Brave”.

Exactly. When this country was founded people owned warships, cannons, and explosive materials. Today, we are strip searched at the airport to ensure we don’t so much as have fingernail clippers.

Most likely the ATF is SELLING guns to Mexican drug cartels thru contacts and tracing them so they can justify a reason for sucking the government tit....so they can get paid and nobody squeals on them.

They are rats that have no morals....history has proven them to be the criminals that need to be rotting in prison screwing each other.

we have no problem with illegal guns and need no e-trace

what we need is i-trace, to trace illegal aliens so we can get them out before their shelf life expires.
if goobermit can e-trace, they can i-trace.

Here’s how: give every one of those suckers an i-Phone with gps enabled as soon as they pop over the river to do the jobs americans don’t want. Every cop in every town checks the i-trace every day. No work permit and tax paid, alien is traced with GPS caught and shipped out.
