    Stupidity seems to be spreading like a disease, and ignores all borders. If all firearms were destroyed- all that would happen is that the type of weapons would change. The violence has never been in the weapons people used, it's in their heads and hearts. People. We must defend ourselves, not against guns- but the violent people who would attack us with weapons of any kind.
    The only way to defend yourself from an armed criminal when your government will not.... Is to be better armed.

    Mexico has strong guns laws- and only one government store in the country where a citizen can buy a gun. But their cartels carry machine guns. many of their cops and officials are corrupt. They don't have a gun problem- they have people problems, and doing a very poor job of dealing with it.

    Particularly when the Mexican government gets weapons from the US.There are Mexican generals and governors that operate as quasi tyrants in their fiefdom will sell gun permits and even guns for the right price ( ask me how I know that for a fact) and many of those weapons originate via a pipeline traced to China and even the Cartels.in many villages there are places in open air markets where you can buy full auto veggies, even the fun kind of pineapples. In Mexico there are two sets of laws, one for people with money one for those without; hmmm same as the US.
    But, in Mexico the Courts will return verdicts predetermined by those with power…. Different place, different language, but not that different.
