Neal, they knock on your door yet?

Mexican officials in 2008 asked federal agents to trace the origins of more than 7,500 firearms recovered at crime scenes in Mexico. Most of them were traced back to Texas, California and Arizona.

The rest (90%) are all fully automatic, and last time I checked, you can't buy RPG-7's in your local LA Hood! Their gun problem is coming from South America and Middle America, not from the US as Hitlery would have you believe.

The point is, this is a move to inventory your guns. Period.

What has been proven? You say "8% to 12% of the illegal guns in Mexico originated in the United States"; how do I know that's correct? Even if it was, that's enough to warrant cracking down on. I don't get my facts from the NRA. And I don't buy the "move to inventory my guns", the gun nuts have been using that scare tactic as long as I remember. It's the lifeblood of the NRA's source of revenue, and I refuse to be stampeded into paranoia.
