Your posts are well written, properly spelled and punctuated, and make your points clearly, yet you have an odd reading comprehension disability concerning the term "automatic weapon". An automatic is a machine gun. The firearms you have been referring to (and are apparently opposed to) are auto loading weapons, or "semi-automatic". Anti-gun propagandists like to deceptively use the term "automatic" when referring to semi-autos because it sounds worse to the uninformed public. Are you a deceptive anti-gun propagandist, or just unknowledgeable about firearms?

Here's a clickable link to that CBS story about the Justice Dept ordering the ATF to let weapons go across the border from the US to Mexico - Agent: I was ordered to let U.S. guns into Mexico - CBS Evening News - CBS News

Now why would they allow this? I blame Eric Holder the same man who refused to prosecute Black Panthers with election day voting intimidation tactics. Has anybody noticed there have begun to be beheadings in Mexico too just as there are in places that grow some of these drugs.

And here's the ATF response - ATF memo after CBS report: We need positive press - CBS News Investigates - CBS News

so that police can trace abandoned/destroyed cars through it if the others have been removed or destroyed

Just giving you a hard time, loves2read!
