A US Senate report says that almost 70% of the guns seized in Mexico... and submitted to an ATF gun-tracing program...came from the USA.
Of the 29,284 firearms recovered by authorities in Mexico in 2009-10, 20,504 came from the USA.
With more than 38,000 dead since he took office in 2006, President Felipe Calderon is attacking the U.S. weapons industry.
"I accuse the U.S. weapons industry of (responsibility for) the deaths of thousands of people that are occurring in Mexico," Calderon said. "It is for profit, for the profits that it makes for the weapons industry."
