#1 Assault rifles are illegal in Mexico but are frequently being used to murder people.
Assault rifles are pretty much legal in the US but are not used very often to commit crimes.
Solution: ban assault weapons in the US
Yeah, that's about right.

#6 Huachuca City = one of nation's greatest speed traps -if you drive from Tucson to Fort Huachuca you gotta drive through this corrupt hamlet.

Regarding the vehicle apprehended - I want one! I believe all smaller vehicles (I own a Saab) should have rocket launchers as standard equipment in case of menacing Ford Excusions & etc...
