Most brilliant idea we’ve had in years. Sell a bunch of guns to Mexican drug cartels so we can catch Mexican drug cartels with the guns we sold them.

well that was sort of a secondary objective, the first ATF officials selling weapons to mexican cartels were actually just doing it for money, then they thought, HEY WHY NOT DO THIS!!! as both a way to crack down on cartels, and legitimate FFL holders/gun ownners in your country
