According to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, since 2007, Mexican officials have recovered 68,000 guns that were later traced back to the United States. The majority of these weapons were found at the scenes of drug cartel-related violence or were part of large illegal caches of weapons found in the homes of cartel members. All of these 68,000 weapons are suspected of being used in violent crimes in Mexico. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
