The Supreme Court rules cannot blame the weapons makers for the cartel violence

the supreme court On Thursday, he ruled in favor of seven American weapons manufacturers who were filed against the Mexican government because of allegations that they had helped and illegal weapons sales to the Mexican carters.

The Supreme Court’s decision in the Smith & Weshon Brands case against Estados Unidos Mexicanos was unanimously, as it was found that protecting the Legal Trade Law in weapons, a law that protects weapons makers from lawsuits, did not include exceptions that give the Mexican government the ability to prosecute.

Judge Elena Kagan wrote to the court: “The types of allegations made by Mexico cannot meet the requirements for excluding the statute,” Judge Elena Kagan wrote to the court.

Kagan noticed that the exceptions in the law would allow a lawsuit against arms makers if they “cause almost” in Mexico.

Kagan wrote: “Mexico’s complaint, for the reasons presented, does not reasonably claim such help and incitement,” Kagan wrote. “So, this lawsuit remains subject to the general PLCAA tape: a lawsuit cannot be filed against the manufacturer if, like Mexico, is established on the criminal use of the third party of the company’s product.”

The judges concluded that the “near reason” criterion means that the US manufacturers cannot be prosecuted when the complex trade pipeline is transferred to them to wholesalers, distributors, rogue retailers, straw buyers, smugglers, and then to the Mexican Cartlat.

The case came before the Supreme Court during a delicate period of both countries, politically and diplomatically.

The Trump administration has prompted the Mexican government to be better to patrol its borders to prevent drugs and migrants from entering the United States, while Mexican officials demanded firearms in the military style from the completion of Mexico-which provides the same drug crisis that both sides seek to end.

During the procedures, Mexico lawyers, who have strict restrictions on the sale of weapons, have argued that the country should be allowed to file a civil lawsuit worth $ 10 billion in US courts.

Arms makers responded that their usual commercial practices were unfairly targeted and that they were not aware that their products were illegally transferred to Mexico.
