Please can anyone who explain why the US gov’t smuggled guns into mexico?

For one thing, providing more US purchased arms would up the number of traceable (to US civil sales) weapons available for mexican forces to capture (if they were not delivered to them in the first place).

The media constantly reports that the majority of confiscated arms are traced back to the US - without reporting that the real majority of confiscated arms are not traceable and therefore not likely from any US gun stores at all.

You can be sure that, had a whistleblower not given the alarm, news of weapons used to kill a BP agent had come from a Tucson civil sale would have made nationwide banner headlines.

Thanks
That makes sense in a sick way
that 0dumbo’s people would sink this low disregarding the real possibility people would get killed with the weapons smuggled in including one of our own.

is there NOTHING 0dumbo won’t do to make the USA look bad?
