Oh and if you really want to see how many guns that are in Mexico come from the U.S. you ought to use facts rather than some half-assed reporter's rantings.

Even that number is too low. At our request, an ATF spokesman gave us more detailed figures for how many guns had been submitted and traced during those two years. Of the guns seized in Mexico and given to ATF for tracing, the agency actually found 95 percent came from U.S. sources in fiscal 2007 and 93 percent in fiscal 2008. That comes to a total of 10,347 guns from U.S. sources for those two years, or 36 percent of what Mexican authorities say they recovered.

And of those traced to the U.S. it only means that they were maufactured here. God knows from where they came from after they left the U.S. The "iron river" doesn't exist.
