[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1432618, member: 1132"] I''m not going to comment on the reliability of this source, because I've never heard of it. However, accusing the BATFE of knowingly smuggling guns into Mexico in order to pin the blame on American gun dealers needs to come with a lot more than "We now know...". Someone in Congress definitely needs to conduct an investigation into the BATFE claims on all these guns. Do they have lists of verifiable serial numbers and corresponding gun trace reports? Have they had full access to every weapon siezed by Mexican authorities? Have the BATFE and news organizations conducted due diligence in their investigations of these claims? Or have they simply been spoon fed what they want to hear by Mexican officials and then run with it? I've long felt that many of the guns the Mexican cartels use have come from America. But not off the streets. More likely they've been handed to the cartels by corrupt Mexican law enforcement and military members. Guns given to them by the U.S. government to fight the war on drugs. American citizens are being blamed for something they themselves cannot verify, by both governments and the media. It's way past time that someone held all of them to some standards of integrity. It's way past due for someone like the NRA, Professional Gun Retailers Association or the National Association of Federally Licensed Firearms Dealers filed suit to force them to either release the proof, or STFU!!!
