Why must it be a mistake?




I think that you've confused the numbers a little bit. A gun confiscated in 2007 wasn't necessarily smuggled into Mexico in 2007. It may have been smuggled into Mexico years earlier.



I wonder why that is?




Yes, please do.




Sorry, I'm not sure I understand what you're saying here.



Why?
In your own link the Council on Hemispheric affairs is discribed as a left wing think tank.

As I explained before these high percentages they are throwing out are bunk:

http://www.factcheck.org/2009/04/counting-mexicos-guns/

They have been exposed as bunk for a long time. Anyone(not meaning you) who is still using them has an agenda that doesn't include the truth.

Regarding the 2000 and 5000 figures they are in line with what has been found to be american arms. How could they know what year something was smuggled? It has to refer to what the Mexican government confiscated and set back to the States.

Any gun law limits personal freedom. How can a Government of the People justify doing that when they are failing in their own responsibility to protect?
