It's by design.
A lot of effort went into it and it's a lot of effort to maintain such systems. You need PR along with movie studios, politicians on local, country, and global levels, lobbyists, para-gov agencies (like police unions), judges, etc. It's a business full of people that do what they can to advance it.

Accuracy of this post aside, would anyone be surprised if many of the cartel leaders are on a cia payroll?
I am not alleging that to be any truth, but i would digest that information like a weather report claiming rain when you’re still soaking wet from having been outside.
They almost certainly are to some extent. That being said no cartel works for the CIA. The CIA isn’t nearly as good at espionage as some think.
At this point in history, yes.
I would be surprised if they weren't on the CIA payroll.
The last thing the working classes of the world needs is for the owner class to have a monopoly on violence.
Which is solved by ... cartels? Private gun ownership? Terrorist/freedom-fighter groups?
Warlords have monopolies on violence and even that is through terror, not actual power.
The working class is just always so much larger than the ruling class (if it weren't, there wouldn't be an inequality problem to begin with).
It's just wrong to think that USA only supports righteous freedom fighters.
This is the plot of Iron Man
Restrictive gun laws, but live in North America? Just hop on over to the Ugunted Guns of Agundica and get as many as you want!
The international community should probably do what the US did to set the drinking age to 21, but for guns.

How about voting? Maybe that age should be higher as well?
21 years old to be religious. That sound okay?
How is that supposed to work? The international community doesn’t pay for US infrastructure.
The USA are a huge market for handguns and keep for example the European companies in business.
Mexico doesn’t really check vehicles coming into the country either. That’s something they could start doing. I know I’ve only been stopped one time out of maybe 20 but granted I’m not transporting a firearm.
Downvotes for the truth i guess. Obviously there’s way too many guns but if you don’t even check at the entrance then that’s definitely an area for improvement
