One University of San Diego study found that 47% of licensed gun dealers in the U.S. would go out of business without Mexico’s demand for trafficked guns. David Shirk, the study’s co-author, said Mexico’s lawsuit could be a turning point because it comes amid other lawsuits, including from families of children killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School mass shooting.

Like that's a bad thing? If that happened the number of McDonald's and the number of gun shops would almost be even. Yeah, there are more places to buy guns than there are to buy a Big Mac.
