its probably corrupted mexican government officials affiliated with the drug cartels. they would be GREATLY interested in that list -- because then they know exactly who to rob if they need to rearm and make a quick escape back to mexico. ridiculous

Hey Mexico! Tell you what, I will register my gun with your country as soon as every Mexican that is here illegally registers with each state government in our country.

You got the huevos, I will tell you that, but you can take this proposal and stick it where the sun don't shine!

Yeah Right!
Not gonna happen!!!!

A lot of folks are missing the point here. This request can only mean that Mexico expects to be exercising sovereignty over these border states in the not-too-distant future.

Man, what kind of worms are they putting in their tequila these days?

Man 1. Hey amigo ju know what happened up north jesterday?

Man 2, No Senior what happened?

Man 1, A bunch of our guy from da Cartels when into Tex-ass and robbed all these houses of dier guns and took over the whole neighborhood while the citizens dey could do nothing. They got 4 thousand guns.

Man 2. 4 Thousand guns!? How'd dey do dat?

Man1. We just asked for a list ya know and ya know what.. They Gave it to us!

Man2. Stupid American gringo.

Man1. Yeah I know right..

Asking the worlds largest gun runner for a "registry" really?

Mexico doesn't even have to ask they want it anyway.

OK,lets say your right.

In a pipe dream world of rainbows and butterflies?

what other purpose could it possibly serve ?

anyone who thinks Holder wouldn't comply isn't thinking very hard.

If I were an American living on a border state, I would be watching this very very closely.

Barry and Holdernow will sell you all out at a seconds notice, to anyone anytime anywhere.

If you trust those Chicago thugs, you are really blinded by your food stamps.

luckily i'm neither
and i don't trust any government, ever, so that's a no-brainer.

as for 'watching this closely', i'm more concerned with it being a public request.
our own public cannot get what mexico is asking so, what's the real point of this adventure ??

Isuppose it could happen if our government would allow them to do it.

What is so farfetched about waking up to the news that Obama has announced, in the spirit of cross-border friendship, a new program where law enforcement from both sides of the border will work together to fight crime in both countries?
Haven't we had DEA agents killed in operations in Mexico? What business do our agents have working in Mexico... to enforce our laws? Shouldn't the Mexican govt expect to be able to do the same?

To hear Obama make such an announcement would not surprise me at all. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that the subject was already covered in some treaty or agreement already.
