#4 Bout goes to jail for selling guns to FARC but Eric Holder sells guns to Mexican drug cartels and he's still the AG. Sounds like we're making a much bigger deal out of this than Bout is worth. I mean, it's not like he's the only arms dealer who ever walked the planet.

Hopefully we're setting a precedent for when Mexico requests Holder's extradition in a year or two.

#9 They'll never do that because the Forty Families don't want Holder's freedom taken away, they want ours taken away.

#12 That might not be the proper name. Basically, the more-or-less mostly european descended families who run Mexico.
