1. Time for the United States to stand up and get a grip on this problem.

This is obviously way more important than any story about people seeking asylum here.

Thanks for the link. I had no idea.

2. I wouldn't say more important but it is a large part of the immigration problem.

People are fleeing Central America to get away from the Cartels as well as climate change.

A lot of this stuff is related and it's time to see it.

3. Many in the gun industry are complicit in illegal gun sales to criminal narco-gangs

Many, so called, legal producers and purveyors in the gun industry are complicit in illegal gun sales to criminal narco-gangs.
Along the chain from manufacturers delighted to ship unconscionable numbers of guns to distributors who don't blink when they pass the guns on to shadow businesses supplying smugglers with the goods that kill thousands and allow narco-terrorists to essentially take over entire countries, gun lovers happily profit from the carnage and zealously guard their un-infringed life-style choice.

Every 2nd amendment absolutist is ethically complicit.
