AP didn't say a word about seizures and how they relate to how much 
contraband got into the country, doofus. When it comes to seizures, 
you're thinking about the link you provided (now snipped; imagine that!) 
from Mexico News Daily.

https://mexiconewsdaily.com/news/fact-check-border-crossings-and-drug-seizures-plummet-statistics-dont-align/

And the fact that they draw erroneous conclusions by assuming a 
correlation without proof really isn't my problem.

But let's put back the situation you snipped:

If less seized drugs prove less drugs are making it into the country...

...then doesn't more seized ammunition and weapons parts prove more 
ammunition and weapons are making it into the country?

Now run and hide again.
