Sin el acceso masivo a esos arsenales, la masacre y la corrupcion nunca habrian alcanzado la escala actual.Este no es un trafico clandestino, sino un flujo facilitado por una arquitectura de la permisibilidad en Estados Unidos. El libro rastrea como la desregulacion sistematica de armas en aquel pais no solo permitio esta catastrofe, sino que la busco. Merced a su dinero y al poder que ofrece, la industria armamentista se volvio intocable.La violencia vino del Norte es una acusacion que nos obliga a mirar sin evasivas. El fuego no se encendio solo; fue financiado y armado hasta los dientes por un sistema que prioriza el negocio sobre la vida.La tormenta no se gesto en Mexico, sino al otro lado de la frontera. () Fue alla donde se desmantelo el sistema de control. Fue alla donde se vendieron las armas que aqui matan. Fue alla donde se protegio, con leyes y cabilderos, a quienes lucran con el desastre.
