Mexico 'No more weapons'

Laughable. Mexico's Pres complaining about the so called " weapons from the US" It's their own culture and people that are substandard and are the root of the problem.

Graft and corruption is the reason they are a third world country. The same reason all of sub-Saharan Africa is a third world country.

To export poor people by the millions and then cry " FOUL " over the demand that their own organized crime is creating is the ultimate in hypocrisy. Unless Cadron and BHO admin are in cahoots to deprive US citizens of their God given right to bear arms.

Makes ya wonder, doesn't it??
 
Rather than placing the sign at the border,,,President Calderon (Mexico) would have been better served placing on top of the Mexican Embassy in Washington D.C. and directing it at the White House...Maybe then, they would have gotten the message...

In their minds, the border is "Secure" and there is no problem and nothing to see...
 
Calderon chould have put em all on Gunbroker and claimed they all walked back home. He would have gained some good pr plus lined his pockets a bit more.

Fast & Furious absolutely is part of a co-sonspiracy to gain support for anti-gun legislation.

Quote:Firearms Industry Responds to Mexican President’s Calls for U.S. Gun Control

Last week, Mexican President Felipe Calderon unveiled a large sign with the English message “No more weapons!” on a Mexican bridge facing El Paso, Texas. Mr. Calderon used the unveiling of this sign to call for additional gun control measures in the United States, including the reinstitution of a ban on modern sporting rifles. Ironically Mexico, which justifiably guards its sovereignty, seems to have no problem dictating to the United States what our domestic firearms laws should be.

While we respect the work of President Calderon to willingly take on his country’s powerful drug cartels, we continue to be disappointed that he, in the name of security, would urge our Congress to reinstitute a failed ban on so-called “assault weapons.”

Semi-automatic rifles, demonized as so-called “assault weapons,” are not machine guns but modern sporting rifles that are used every day by law-abiding Americans for the shooting sports, hunting and home protection. Since 2004, when the Clinton/Gore ‘assault weapons’ ban expired, modern sporting rifles have fast become one of the most popular types of firearms for law-abiding Americans to purchase. And according to a recent survey, nearly half the people buying modern sporting rifles are either current or retired members of the U.S. military or law enforcement.

The firearms that President Calderon would have the United States ban are functionally no different than any other semi-automatic civilian sporting firearm. They shoot only one shot per trigger pull, no spray firing as some allege, and use the same ammunition as other guns of the same caliber. What differentiates modern sporting rifles from other guns is cosmetic; for example, the type of stock on the firearm.

According to the Department of Justice, so-called “assault weapons” are rarely used in crimes (less than 2 percent). Furthermore, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has established that banning firearms and ammunition have no effect on crime levels.

It’s also worth noting that ATF statistics identify the average age of recovered firearms in Mexico (of U.S. origin) to be more than 15 years old, a clear indicator that these firearms are not straw purchased from the United States.

Moreover, it is well-documented that the drug cartels are illegally smuggling fully automatic firearms, grenades and other weapons into Mexico from South and Central America. Such items are not being purchased at retail firearms stores in the United States.

Here are some key facts that President Calderon should consider:

Fact: Only 12 percent of firearms recovered in Mexico are from the United States.

Fact: Firearms recovered in Mexico and successfully traced to the U.S. were originally sold at retail (after a background check) on average 15 years earlier.

Fact: Since the 2004 sunset of the failed Clinton gun ban on semi-automatic rifles (modern sporting rifles), crime in the U.S. has plummeted.

Fact: President Calderon’s gun-control sign sits in Juarez, ranked one of the most dangerous cities in the world. It faces El Paso, ranked one of the safest cities in the world.

We can all agree that there are serious crime problems in Mexico; however, sacrificing the constitutional rights of law-abiding Americans as a means of addressing this issue is neither an option nor a solution.

Watch border wars on the outdoor channel. One group has video proof that some of the Mexican millitary are running protection for the drug runners. Another access for weapons for the cartels.
 
How about he just puts most of his people to work going around Mexico destroying dope fields, no product to move north, no drug money to buy guns. But that would cut into his peoples cut and shorten his life. Just blame America.
 
Of course he wants a US gun ban, he knows the rednecks have about had enough, and we're subject to start rounding up illegals ourselves and marching them back across the border at gunpoint.


One of you guys out there in Texas go erect a sign across the river that says...


"You keep your Mexicans!! We'll keep our guns!"
 
"Before unveiling the billboard, Calderon supervised the destruction of more than 7,500 automatic rifles and handguns at a military base in Ciudad Juarez."
Just send um back, not crush um in to some lame sign


you think making out sigh out of mexicans would be going to far?
