<As such, Mexican cartels turn to countries where they can cheaply and easily obtain weapons on the black market. These days, those countries include the United States, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and countries in South America and Asia.> The black market in guns in the US keeps criminals in the US AND Mexico awash in cheap and easily obtained guns -- the guns that kill people every day -- the guns that flow like water into the hands of criminals. We can't stop all gun violence tomorrow -- but we can slow the torrent of guns flowing into the hands of the wrong people. When a comparison is made to Mexico and the the word "prove" is used, it should make you realize that the author does not know what the word "prove" means. Gun violence in Mexico among those outside the drug cartels is low -- and high among those in the drug business -- and why? Because the rest of the country of mexico is not busy shooting each other at all and the murder rate is low. And where do the drug cartels who account for most of the violence go to get their guns? Private sales in the US.
