A search on google.com for "missing ordnance" and "stolen weapons" found page after page of articles and studies from around the world about this rampant problem. Israel. South Africa. The U.S. England, etc. And not just handguns and ammo, but missiles, grenades, launchers, even weapons grade uranium. All over the world weapons have been stolen or simply misplaced. Who has these weapons, and what are their intentions? And why hasn't anyone reported on just how bad the problem is. All you find are articles about individual incidents.

Pot, cocaine, and meth are more important contraband...

For the media to point out how many weapons go missing world-wide would render useless to the point of silliness their anti-2nd amendment stance. "If guns are outlawed, only people who stole them from the military will have guns"
