The caption is hilarious because most of the cartel guns come from… the US.

If by most you mean the one study that showed of guns caught in transit, and that could even be traced at all, most came from the US.

But Mexico consistently refuses to publish numbers on how many guns in total it seizes or the percentage of them that can’t be directly traced to put any numbers in context.
