#2 It shows a certain chutzpah to continue with a big lie even after it has been thoroughly debunked. Either chutzpah, or utter lack of creativity.

#4 Yes, the Big Lie. I'm sure (like Pakistan with the WOT), Mexico is RopeADoping the USA for funds to help curb this problem and lay blame on us.

#5 ITs not Rope-A-Dope when the 'dope' knows full well its a big lie - but plans on using it to further restrict the 2nd amendment.

#9 Why would cartel buy arms from the US where it is difficult when they could buy them from other parts of the world such as Iran, China, North Korea, etc.?

#10 They couldn't get real good military grade weapons from the US. Only semi-autos and rifles. If they want the good shit, they will buy from China.

Well Darth, I've recently received a a tool set made in China (birthday gift from my ex). Somehow, "good" is not the adjective that comes to mind.

#13 Somehow, "good" is not the adjective that comes to mind.

Good being relative here. You want 2nd and 3rd hand stuff from Cuba and Venezuela, or 1st hand stuff.

So, for 3rd world armies and drug lords, China's military weapons are pretty good.
