Obama Blames Violence in Mexico on America’s Lust for Drugs, Guns

yes, because apparently those drug cartels would not kill people if they did not get guns from America? I guess there are no guns anywhere else that they can get. I also suppose Obama has never seen a drug cartel beheading video, no guns there! Just a knife. Obama also forgot to mention that his Attorney General Eric Holder allowed rifles to be sold to Mexican Drug Cartels....

Speaking in Mexico on Friday, President Barack Obama blamed U.S. gun manufactures for the violence in the country, adding that much of it stems from the American demand for illegal drugs.
“Much of the root cause for violence that has been happening here in Mexico, for which so many Mexicans have suffered, is the demand for illegal drugs in the United States,” Obama said during a speech at Mexico’s Anthropology Museum
He then turned his attention to U.S. gun owners and gun control.
“Most of the guns used to commit violence here in Mexico come from the United States,” Obama said. “I think many of you know that in America, our Constitution guarantees our individual right to bear arms. And as president, I swore an oath to uphold that right, and I always will.”
“But at the same time, as I’ve said in the United States, I will continue to do everything in my power to pass common-sense reforms that keep guns out of the hands of criminals and dangerous people,” he added.
“That can save lives here in Mexico and back home in the United States. It’s the right thing to do,” Obama said.
