Title: Exporting Gun Violence: How Our Weak Gun Laws Arm Criminals in Mexico and America

Summary: Mexico has strong gun laws, requiring registration and restrictions on lethality. The United States has weak federal laws and weak state laws in Texas and Arizona. As a result, high firepower weapons from the United States are supplying Mexican drug cartels and causing carnage.
