A Drive-by Hit Piece?
In a long and contrived anti-gun series the Washington Post tries to blame American, especially Texan, gun shops as a major cause for Mexico's drug violence!
Out of the thousands of guns used by the drug cartels and waring dealers in Mexico, the anti-gun 'investigative' report from the Washington Post has found "more than 115" guns seized in Mexico that came from a chain of gun stores around the Houston area. The conclusion the Post's report wants its readers to draw is that the free gun rights in the Lone Star State is a driving force in Mexico's drug related violence.
Mexico's internal violence goes way back to long before the Mexican Revolution with Villa and Madero against Diaz. It developed long before their Civil War in 1858. It its racial, socialist and mired in rampant corruption where the rule of law is purchased rather than enforced. Mexico, Spain and Frnace, during its Colonial periods, has manged to more or less deflect blame for its internal disasters on to the United States. It has long had willing bidders in the American Press to bolster the long use of misdirection by Mexico.
It's interesting that most of the guns used by the cartels come directly from China, which is where the guns are made by the way, but no link in the Post is made to China in their 'cause and effect report.'
As Mexico drug violence runs rampant, U.S. guns tied to crime south of border
