    Does mister Calderon live in Mejico ?? I would thnk a strong commitment to gun regulations and international laws would be more important then promoting the banking system and the US dollar who are literally killing thousands in a drug war. if mr Calderon is unwilling to fight it why not just push to legalize it, with a position as president of the G20 for the next 12 month why not use it to change things wich Mexico can benefit from for the next 100 years, doesn't he know that USA has a lot more economists and analysts who are highly better informed then him ?? besides this analyst get payed for it and work for USA, if USA doesn't follow their own analysts what makes Mr. Calderon think USA will listen to him ?? I consider his comments a waste of good space unless this are just rettorics to build up a solid future political attack, in any case he doesn't need to set anything up since USA are much like UK, they just have to be told the truth.
    • ATF agents, as well as the private firearms dealer who sold the guns to the Mexican cartel’s buyer at the ATF’s direction, had warned ATF higher-ups against continuing the program and had warned that the guns would be used for criminal purposes.
    • Hundreds of guns (possibly thousands) sold to the Mexican cartel operatives under the ATF’s supervision remain unaccounted for and are presumed to be still in criminal hands.
    • Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano declared that the U.S.-Mexico border is more secure than it has ever been, but does not explain how, if this is true, a group of heavily armed men (all of whom had previous criminal records and had been previously deported) was able to penetrate more than 15 miles into the United States, fire on Border Patrol agents with guns provided courtesy of the ATF, kill a BORTAC agent, and then (at least one of them, supposedly the killer) escape on foot all the way back across the border.”
