“The straw buy is illegal, as is shipping it out of the country without State Department approval. Smuggling it into Haiti is illegal as well.”
I wasn’t planning a trip to Haiti anytime soon, and the way things have gone over the last little while there, that’s for the best.
The nation is approaching failed state status–assuming they haven’t already gotten there–and little seems to help. I mean, we’re talking about stories of cannibalism, for crying out loud.
Haiti has a lot of problems, to say the least.
However, it should come as no surprise that the American media knows exactly who to blame for it. That would be us, the United States of America, the supposed source of all the problems anywhere in the world.
Just how are we at fault? It seems the guns showing up in Haiti originated here.
