These people and their supporters need to take lots of video footage and pay to run television ads on the theme: "Where is Washington?" Long, eloquent articles are great for the 10% of us that still know how to read, but video is the only real way left to get the message across.

Fear of national outrage and political backlash may be the only thing left that will get the President and the Senate to take the problem seriously.

...and that ain't the half of it!

Anyway, this is a great article especially coming from a leftist rag like the Tucson Weekly.

I know some of the people interviewed too.

The list of the different species of illegals in this article should come as a shock to those who think all who traspass our borders are humble dishwashers.

How about sending a nice, polite, well-reasoned letter to president@whitehouse.gov ?


Let W know we want him to resolve this problem.

So, am I misunderstanding when I hear that the residents are being prohibited from carrying rifles in the back country there?

A pistol isn't the best thing to have if you meet up with a couple of Coyotes armed with real genuine Kalashnikov rifles..

How about you just speak plainly. Dressing is for salads.

" Leo Banks is a fantastic writer whose works are routinely published in Arizona Highways magazine."

==================

I have Arizona Highway magazine in mint condition dating back to the 1930's.

The color photographs of Arizona's beautiful natural scenery, wildlife, sunsets, flowers and vistas they used even back then were stunning.

"We're tired of people who live in another country thumbing their noses at our laws, our culture and our customs, and threatening what we've spent generations building," says Ruth Evelyn Cowan.

BTTT!

But the ACLU is more interested in monitoring the Minuteman Project to make sure the so-called civil rights of illegals aren't violated.
Meanwhile, these good, hardworking people are prisoners on their own property.

- Probably only on National Park land, National Forest Land, Indian reservations, Dept. of Defense land, BLM land, National Wildlife refuges, and various other govt. land...

I wonder if the owner would ever ban people who twist Roman history to fit some current development and to make up historical causes that don't exist?
