Why Is Mexico Asking the U.S. Senate for a Registry of U.S. Gun Owners?

Why Is Mexico Asking the U.S. Senate for a Registry of U.S. Gun Owners?

Mexican lawmakers will ask the U.S. Senate to create a registry of all commercialized firearms in border states, which includes California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. Mexico says it will make it easier to trace guns used in violent attacks.

The measure was reportedly approved on January 9 by Mexico’s Permanent Commission, a government entity that meets when Mexico’s Senate and the Chamber of Deputies is in recess. Gun owners in Arizona are calling the proposal “foolish” and an “invasion of privacy.”

Watch KPHO-TV’s report below:

CBS 5 – KPHO

A number of the gun owners interviewed by KPHO-TV also referenced the Obama administration’s disastrous gun-running operation known as “Fast and Furious.”

The operation, conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), allowed illegal straw buyers to walk across the border with nearly 2,000 firearms, including semi-automatic rifles. The weapons ultimately ended up in the hands of Mexican drug cartel members and were used in a number of crimes, including murders and kidnappings.

Further, a gun from Fast and Furious was found at the murder scene of U.S. Border Agent Brian Terry in December of 2010.

Democrats in Congress have been calling for a ban on semi-automatic rifles and universal background checks for all firearms sales, some even calling for a national gun registry. Further, Democrats in Missouri and California have proposed bills that would result in the possible confiscation of semi-automatic rifles.

TheBlaze has reached out to several members of the U.S. Senate and will update this story as new information becomes available.

    The union of the Mexican Zeta Drug Cartel and the Freemasons has brought corrution to almost every city across America. This is now acknowledged by some DEA investigators. The cartel along with corrupt police in Mexico around 2005 made independant criminals and drug distributors illegal. All must work thru police in distribution or share their profits. Those who refuse become falsly imprisoned or killed. This is now active herev in the U.S. for a few years. In Northern Indiana and statewide is profoundly corrupt as well as their associates in Illinois. Distribution is hands on by judges and prosecuting attorneys whom are all freemasons. Before going off course… It is nice for low level organized criminals to know who is armed and who,is not. Crimes, thefts, kidnapping, extortion is non stop and all premeditated months and months before the actual crimes which are like an assembly line.

      The more research I do, the more I uncover evidence of the Freemasons being a division of the International Bankster Cartel.

      Thank you for your leads.

    ​”It’s an invasion of privacy, it’s an invasion of safety.”

    Yes, it is.

    And it is ALSO just a plain, old fashioned INVASION!

    We have NO “immigration” problem on our Southern Flank, “legal” or “illegal”.
    What we have is a La Raza Reconquista, Aztec Anschluss, Brown Dwarf-Orc INVASION, that needs to be dealt with AS an Invasion.

    The Thoughtful Student is reminded of the Traditional Welcome afforded INVADERS and their Quisling 5th Column Enablers.

    I actually believe that the Mexicans might save Texas from being overrun with Muslims. I will deal with living in my border state rather than wind up like Michigan and bow to Shariah law. I own several firearms Mexico and they are no longer pointed in your direction. I have the North, East and West borders guarded though.

      I have to applaud you on your argument here. Not kissing your 4th point if contact. But refreshing to see educated thoughts with the witty responses to uneducated “cracks” at your comments. I couldn’t make a statement because you took them all. Not a complaint, just glad to see them said. Have a great American day!!!

    If you’re worried about gun violence from the US to Mexico, then you should be trying to investigate Eric Holder and the DOJ. Also, illegal guns in Mexico don’t get there from legal US gun holders. They get there through gangs (and the DOJ).

    Somehow I think Obama had a hand in this legislation. This is not something the Mexicans would do on their own out of nowhere. It’s no coincidence that its happening while Obama is trying to ram through anti-gun legislation.

    So, Sorry Mexico! The United States ctizens will not comply to your authoritatively dictation orders … registation of firearms. . . Besides, you Mexican lawmakers tell your poor Mexican people to go to America why?

    To get free U.S. Tax payer funded welfare programs are available for Illegal Aliens:

    1.Child Care/Child Support
    2. Food/Nutrition
    3. Housing
    4. Healthcare
    5. Free education (Mexicans have to pay for their education; However, public school education in the United States is free.)

    We need to cut all ties with Mexico…

    1. Close the boarder
    2. Enforce American internal Immigration Laws
    3. Tax the heck out of every good going in, and coming out of Mexico onto our soil…

    Then simply ignore Mexico’s plea’s for help, as they would not do anything to help us, why should we help them..

    We have enough problems here in the U.S. without taking on the problems of Mexico.

      The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) is an agreement signed

      by the governments of Canada, Mexico, and the United States, creating a trilateral trade bloc

      in North America.

      The agreement came into force on January 1, 1994.

      It superseded the Canada–United States Free Trade Agreement between the U.S. and Canada.

      NAFTA has two supplements:

      the North American Agreement on Environmental Cooperation (NAAEC)

      and the North American Agreement on Labor Cooperation (NAALC).

    Oh, boy. Here we go again with “the guns are coming from America” bullcrap.

    Do you watch TV? Do you ever notice the scenes in those Mexican drug shootouts? Ever see cars with 700 bullet holes all over the windshield in a sweeping pattern? Those are made by automatic firearms, and you don’t get those at your run-of-the-mill gun shop in Arizona.

    Apparently the powers that be feel the heat on Fast and Furious is gone and they can start back on their agenda. Any day we’ll see Hillary at the border again claiming guns bought at Wal-Mart are the cause of Mexican drug crime.

    Mexico is a willing partner in our regime’s effort to attack the 2nd Amendment.

    How will Mexico arest Eric Holder for passing over 2k of guns into Mexico? He is not living in a state close to the border.
    Mexican theater for the democrats and ammo for Obama. The Dems cant stand around hoping for a 2nd sandy hook, they have to get more press to push the anti 2nd. A. propaganda.

    Sure, right after you Mexicans get those guns registered that the drug cartels already have, and you clean up your corrupt government.

    Nine years ago, my son and daughter-in-law had their honeymoon in Mexico. At the border crossing, one of your corrupt border guards stole their video camera from them. Sadly, their recent wedding videos were still in the camera.
