Obama and his bunchare making a big dealoverscummy and lawless Mexican drug peddlers who are killing each other for a share of theshrinking US dope market. We should give real rock and roll assault weapons to everyone in Mexico who wants one: Then they can kill each other wholesale.

Doesn't surprise me if he can't ban guns the in senate or congress he goes to a international treaty were the constitution doesn't have supreme rule. I just hope that the senate and congress actually read it unlike the stimulus plan and if it contains anything that infringes on each American's constitutional right to keep and bear arms they shouldn't ratify it. I'm sure if it has words that reinstate the assault weapons ban through the back door the NRA will let us know about it so we can contact our elected officials. I'm all for helping Mexico but not so we can sacrifice our freedoms for a law that didn't work the first time it was made. Actually enforce the gun laws we have and fight the drug problem which is far worse than the problem with illegal guns. He who sacrifices freedom for security deserves neither 'Ben Franklin"

Use of cocaine, meth and heroin are down in the USA. Illegal use of prescription drugs is way up.

Cocain is an epidemic just like it was in the 70's/80's again if you ask me...
its everywhere....especially with the populations of mexican gangs explodingand spead outin all parts of every city/suburbs....very easy to get....they love that stuff doing it and selling it.

Motorcycle clubs like to ride from bar to bar and sell blow on Friday nights.

I heard the same report on FOX news that falcon must have heard. They did say that use of many of the hard drugs was down about 20 percent since the war on drugs started. They also said much of it is being replaced by use of legal drugs, or misuse of same.

The only chance to stop drug use is the death penalty like they used in Singapore. They didn't have to use it long to get big results. How many people already die in the drug trade with our slap on the wrist penalties and slack enforcement. Start executing every level of drug criminals.

television fox news reporting????

if it is in decline its not because of the "war on drugs" working its magic...

Its because this slow dead sluggish economy even effects drug users....they dont have the money to get Blitzed every week.

Obama lied his butt off today. He claimed 90% of the guns come from the US. That story was proven wrong. Most are from Russia and China, but that doesn't help his agenda. He is also appologizing for something that is clearly a mexican problem. Cartels are a product of a corrupt mexican government and they need to deal with it.

Bingo!!!

It really chaps my butt that the Obama character has come down on the side of the corrupt Mexican government and against law abiding Americans.

The Zetas have help wanted ads aimed at Mexican army troops. Thousands of Mexican troops have deserted to the drug lords, some taking their guns with them.

Last year, legislative records show, the Mexican Congress was told by a high-ranking Army official that more than 17,000 soldiers had deserted, but the general and others say it's not likely that the new help-wanted signs are going to provoke soldiers to leave their posts.
