Darn That "Gun Show Loophole!"

CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico — Mexican federal police said Saturday they discovered a basement arsenal hidden behind the mirrors of a home gym that included three anti-aircraft guns, dozens of grenades, a grenade launcher, AK-47s and other high-powered weapons.

The neatly ordered stockpile found in an upscale neighborhood in Ciudad Juarez, across the border from El Paso, Texas, also contained several makes of machine guns, rifles, a shotgun and more than 26,000 ammunition cartridges, according to Raul Avila Ibarra, the federal police commissioner in charge of the city.

Police say they discovered the weapons Friday while searching a house near the U.S.-Mexico border. Avila said the police acted on an anonymous tip that there were kidnapping victims in the house, but no one was found.

The mirrors of the gym opened at the touch of a button near the floor, allowing access to the secret shelter, which also held more than 50 military uniforms, as well as bulletproof vests and gas masks. Three money-counting machines were also found.

No one was detained in the search. The police didn’t reveal the origin of the weapons found.

Well heck...

It's regretable thet they found / invaded my hidey-hole in Juarez, but the plain fact is that a fella living in that neighborhood needs a few things to... uh... 'maintain his citizenship and livlihood.'

I guess I'll move to San Luis.

They may talk of a "New Order" in the  world, but what they have in mind is only a revival of the oldest and worst tyranny.   No liberty, no religion, no hope.   It is an unholy alliance of power and pelf to dominate and to enslave the human race.

With the batfe caught walking guns across the border, maybe they were purchased from their evidence lockup?? They're coming from America right?   I can't see a "collecter" letting go of a few  AA guns unless they were high grading their collection.  ::)
