“Mexican lawmakers will ask the U.S. Senate to create a registry of all commercialized firearms in border states, which includes California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. Mexico says it will make it easier to trace guns used in violent attacks. The measure was reportedly approved on January 9 by Mexico’s Permanent Commission, a government entity that meets when Mexico’s Senate and the Chamber of Deputies is in recess. Gun owners in Arizona are calling the proposal ‘foolish’ and an ‘invasion of privacy.’ A number of the gun owners interviewed also referenced the Obama administration’s disastrous gun-running operation known as ‘Fast and Furious.’”
