I have stated before that Obama and his democrat tools in power are using Mexico as an excuse to place excessive gun bans on the American people.  The latest claim they are using is that 90%  of the gun used in crimes in Mexico come from the U.S.  As with most liberal talking points, this is false!

“In fact, it’s not even close. By all accounts, it’s probably around 17 percent.  What’s true, an ATF spokeswoman told FOXNews.com, in a clarification of the statistic used by her own agency’s assistant director, “is that over 90 percent of the traced firearms originate from the U.S.”


But a large percentage of the guns recovered in Mexico do not get sent back to the U.S. for tracing, because it is obvious from their markings that they do not come from the U.S.


“Not every weapon seized in Mexico has a serial number on it that would make it traceable, and the U.S. effort to trace weapons really only extends to weapons that have been in the U.S. market,” Matt Allen, special agent of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), told FOX News.”

So once again, another lie just to take guns away from Americans.
