Fair point, but even as a collector, the number of weapons that went through his hands is quite concerning, to say the least.
(FWIW, I'm no expert of any kind, but am the son of a gunsmith/Maine State Hunting Guide/competitive marksman/redneck motherfucker who taught shooting and hunter safety, and who loathed the NRA, so my opinion is admittedly a bit skewed.)
Unless you are Native American (assuming you're in the US), you (and I) come from a line of either immigrants or slaves, so you might wanna rethink that narrow attitude, bud.
Also, which out of roughly 150 cartels, precisely, is 'the' cartel you refer to?
