Drug cartels smuggle at least $10 billion dollars worth of drugs into Arizona ALONE every year. Its just a massive, massive market.

And with drugs come guns. I'm not going to argue how many, or which way they are going. All I'm saying is that there is a MASSIVE amount of stuff going back and forth across the border. With drugs come guns, and its common sense to think that they are being brought into the US as well.

Not that they need them, considering there are millions upon millions of illegal firearms already in the US. And its not slowing down either.
