Federal Agency Drug War and Gun Running

I have made my case that recreational drugs are bad for the culture and for individuals.
Many oppose efforts to control drug trafficking and the corrupting effect of criminalization.
This essay affirms some of their points. Imagine ATF providing guns for gangs running drugs who then kill Mexicans and a US Border Patrol agent.
