New registration requirements passed by presidential decree (not Congress). Further proof Obama only supports democracy when democracy supports him.
The ATF releases a large volumes of firearms to drug cartels in Mexico. Their whole operation was premised on the false premise that most of the guns used for crime in Mexico were purchased here legally. It was a flawed premise made faultier by ATF involvement.
Now they want to begin requiring federal reporting of gun purchases. But just in Arizona, Texas, New Mexico, and California. They are still operating under the mistaken belief that gun control on this side of the border will slow criminal activity on that side of the border.
I'm still waiting for them to finally grasp the concept that these are MULTINATIONAL CRIMINAL NETWORKS WITH WORLDWIDE OPERATIONS. Regulations here have absolutely no affect on the cartels. Remember, the narcotics they distrubute are illegal. When has that stopped cocaine, heroin, and the like from being smuggled here routinely?
All gun control will get for us is the same thing it got for Mexico: Well-armed and organized criminals that control the country and make it dangerous for everyone. Look forward to kidnappings and paying for protection, because our government is certainly stupid enough to see that it happens.
