The Dirty Secret about Gun Control in Latin America

QUOTE: "Mexico only has one gun store in the country, located in its capital. As a result, law-abiding citizens have few options for self-defense. Prospective gun owners are required to submit references and demonstrate that they earned their income legally. On top of that, they must be photographed and fingerprinted.

Despite all this red tape, Mexican criminals can acquire firearms with ease. Thanks to this disparity in gun ownership, law-abiding Mexicans have suffered at the hands of powerful drug cartels and other criminal elements. According to The Sun, 94 homicides take place on a daily basis in Mexico."

What to say? Why should we all across the world have access to firearms? Just look at the 'unarmed', and strict gun control countries. Mexico is overrun by cartels, and then the low level street gangs trying to emerge as power players.

People are kidnapped, murdered, and raped on a daily basis in Ole' Mexico; there's little they can do about it. The military, and police work most of the times along side the cartels; in a loose mutual agreement. The only sitting ducks are the average slobs, the poor peasant citizens who're stuck being recruited into, or ravaged by the violence.

I can speak first hand, my gun has saved my life. it's not just a right line itemed into creation by way of the Bill of Rights, but an Inalienable Natural Right; requiring no paper to gift it.

PSA: Estimated 500,000 to 3 MILLION lives are saved annually through the defensive use of firearms. This study was commissioned by OBAMA. https://www.investmentwatchblog.com/psa-estimated-500000-to-3-million-lives-are-saved-annually-through-the-defensive-use-of-firearms-this-study-was-commissioned-by-obama/ QUOTE: "“Studies that directly assessed the effect of actual defensive uses of guns (i.e., incidents in which a gun was ‘used’ by the crime victim in the sense of attacking or threatening an offender) have found consistently lower injury rates among gun-using crime victims compared with victims who used other self-protective strategies,” the CDC study, entitled “Priorities For Research to Reduce the Threat of Firearm-Related Violence,” states.

The report, which notes that “ violent crimes, including homicides specifically, have declined in the past five years,” also pointed out that “some firearm violence results in death, but most does not.” In fact, the CDC report said, most incidents involving the discharge of firearms do not result in a fatality."
