Or you know America could ban the production of new guns and ammunition; and begin destroying guns already in circulation. That's the real answer to America's and central/south America gun problem. It's not like drugs where it's obvious when they are smuggled in large quantities. Guns can be disassembled and parts hidden within the maze of parts that is modern vehicles. Search every vehicle? As if a military personnel will be able to look at a engine bay and be able to tell if one piece of metal is a car part or gun part. But a brick of Fentanyl is kinda easier to tell if its supposed to be their. Also, since America has been a nation we have been treating central and South America as our personal trash can, war zone, political toy, and financial sow to be milked dry. A couple thousand dollars and a wink will get you past any check point into Mexico. Their military just as much as the police know the problem won't be solved at the boarder. You could find thousands of guns by searching every vehicle and it wouldn't make a dint; smugglers will just evolve. or you could prevent millions from every being made or transferred hands at the source. Or you know ending the war on drugs would defunct the cartels over night. The problem isn't the boarder!!! The problem is decades of poor policy and leadership in America.

Those texan gun dealers love selling to the cartels through proxy buyers. They are so easy to find if you have access to the right information - just look at whoever buys more than two guns in a 6 month period... the top 80% of that list will probably be unable to procure all the guns they bought because they distribute them over the border.
If we can smuggle people in to the US easily, it should be trivial to smuggle weapons out of the US easily. Hell, if you take out the receivers you can do it in plain sight, just move the receivers illegally.

I agree with you on that. Unfortunately, it's more complicated than that. Owning guns doesn't necessarily lead to bad things happening, but it often does, because people are mentally stressed and exhausted. The problem is the poor living conditions many people are forced to live under. What would really help is some sort of social welfare. But i guess, the US has a lot of work to do before it gets there.

Yeah, maybe it's that, or maybe it's that the arms trade is profitable.

With 10,000 soldiers they can search many cars!

I never said gun ownership is the issue. It's the fact that we have 3 guns (that we know about) for every person and are making more. We need to remove hundreds of millions of guns from cycling

Yeah I mean that's what has been happening for decades and it's worked out very well for the US. Profits from arms sales and a steady supply of cheap labor from immigrants. Don't know why the Republicans suddenly want to kill their cash cow.

The average conservative isn't informed or intelligent enough to understand how drastically they benefit from the horrible working conditions that migrant workers deal with, and they hate brown people.
The entire movement has been backing themselves into this corner for decades.

Well if it isn't my old nemesis, unintended consequences.
I would be so tickled if this was the catalyst for stricter gun laws and enforcement.

They're not.
Well, except maybe arms exports, but for cheap labor? If you create a class of people without rights, they become very exploitable.

When fascists start trying to get stricter on guns, it's time to buy more of them.

Yes cuz clearly all these guns stopped a coup. Also if you think there's going to be battles in the street over fascism, the fighting should have happened a long time ago. Turning back the clock will happen over our blood but not how you are thinking.
