Former President of Mexico scolds U.S. after Las Vegas attack, and gets scorched over it

Proof Leftist shameless and hypocrisy oozes from them like sweat off an athlete.

A corruptocrat who did absolutely nothing to deal with the massive death toll in Mexico on whose watch the biggest drug cartel leader walked out of prison. Mexico considered on of the world's most dangerous countries in the world in spite of draconian gun ownership laws -- except for the special cartel exemption.

In 2012, Mexico had a murder rate of 21.5 per 100,000 population. There were a total of 26,037 murders in Mexico in 2012. Between 2000 and 2013, 215,000 people in Mexico were murdered. By 2013 there were only 30,800 people incarcerated for murder, this shows that the large amount

Mexico recorded 9,916 murders in the first five months of 2017, roughly a 30% increase over the same period last year.

It's the morality of a culture that curtails violence. The laws are out of the picture when these is no moral foundation -- see certain areas of Chicago.

Former President of Mexico scolds U.S. after Las Vegas attack, and gets scorched over it

Former President of Mexico Vicente Fox scolded Americans about our gun laws in the wake of the horrific Las Vegas attack, and Americans understandably called him out on his apparent hypocrisy. 

What did President Fox say?

Fox took to his Twitter account to advocate for gun control. 

“[Gun Control] is a topic that must be dealt with ASAP,” he said. “American people must not be looking over their shoulder for their countrymen.”

Prior to this tweet he sent out a more sanguine message, saying, “This morning, we mourn for the victims in Las Vegas. Such a heartless and senseless act of violence. We must #PrayForTheWorld to find peace.”

Fox’s comments fall in line with the response from many on the left who clamored for gun control even as the details of the terrible attack were still being released and processed. 

What was the response?

Many online didn’t appreciate the politicization from Fox, especially given the exceeding violence in his own country despite gun control being implemented there for years. 

Are they right about Mexico being a dangerous country?

Mexico has one of the highest homicide rates in the world. A 2017 survey found there were more than 22,000 homicides in the country and rated it the second deadliest country in the world, worse than Afghanistan or Yemen. Defenders of the country blame the violence on U.S. demand for illegal drugs.

What are gun laws like in Mexico?

While Mexican citizens have a constitutional right to owning guns, the state highly regulates the ownership of guns, and rarely grants conceal-carry permits. As a result, few Mexican citizens own guns legally. Some gun advocates have demanded expansion of gun rights so that Mexican citizens can defend themselves from the violence in Mexico.
