Obama Gives Back Major Strip of AZ to Mexico
fox ^ | June 15, 2010

Posted on 06/15/2010 6:53:43 PM PDT by george76

The federal government is now telling American citizens to stay out of three southern Arizona counties. It is too dangerous because of armed smugglers from Mexico.

Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu: Quite frankly I’m telling you as a sheriff that we don’t control that part of the county. My county is larger than the state of Connecticut and we need support from the federal government. It’s their job to secure the border and they haven’t done it. In fact President Obama suspended the construction of the fence.

Sheriff Paul Babeu: Even with that, you say one thing and then you’re out at a fundraiser in California and you don’t go to the funeral of the people who died in the explosion. You know its one thing to say something slick on television in a ten second soundbite but we need action. And, it’s shameful that we as the most powerful nation on earth can win wars and liberate countries throughout history yet we can’t even secure our own border.

What a disgusting disgrace!

Instead of impeachment tar and feathering appears to be in order for all Democrats!

All there has to be is a military buildup of soldiers and equipment at the border and things would calm down in a hurry.A TEC9 is no match for a tank gun.

There is more truth to this than you can possibly imagine.

For the record, Sheriff Babeau, standing around with your thumb up your ass waiting for the Feds to do something is NOT an option.

Call up and deputize the militia, and you’ll have more Deputies than you know what to do with who will GLADLY help you police THEIR county and THEIR State.

You have the legal Constitutional powers to do that. If the Fed abdicates it’s responsibility to protect its citizens from invasion, then the Citizens must be the First Responders and do so themselves.

That’s one of the reasons we have the Second Amendment, Sheriff...

Pick an area, freeze it, isolate it, and clear it out, then move on to the next area.

With the left, like their ideological father, every truth is turned inside out.

They want the government to do everything it’s prohibited to do,
but not do anything it is required to do.

Maybe the AZ gov needs to declare a state of emergency.

It's time to call Governor Brewer's office and ASK THEM for further details on this story and WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO TO PROTECT THE CITIZENS OF THOSE COUNTIES.;

I agree with some of your arguments, but then you’re asking me to sign on to the idea that RINO Republicans and Democrats would get it too. We’re parting ways right there.

I’m not going to argue the WACO point. You’re probably right, but if we don’t have elected officials who are sound enough to grasp that situation rationally, you’ve basically made my point for me.

Look, the National Guard can handle the situation in Arizona. It’s in part the National Guard Reserves who are on active duty in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Why toss the Dems a free pass card using active duty military troops, when we can handle the situation in a manner that denies them a future arguing point.

This is a bigger deal than people think. Right now Obama is trying to set up an active military division tasked with operations only on U.S. soil. Do I want to choose this very moment to argue that active military should serve on our soil?

No way whatsoever!

There are parts of Oakland that American citizens should stay out of.

Nice take on it Hale. You are of course right, and it bothers me I didn’t suggest it.

I like Hale’s suggestion for the local sheriff to deputize people and clear the area himself.

I just responded to him, and you should see that post of mine just above this one. It links to his comments.

It’s the only sane thing to do at this point.

I honestly think you’re on to something there.

It would scare the lovin’ crap out of the sellouts in Washington, D.C.

You’d see an armed response in 48 hours, something tens of millions of Mexican citizens on our soil, and countless murdered, raped, molested, robbed, and the list goes on of harmed U.S. Citizens..., couldn’t do in 24 years.

Oh, the useless pogues in D.C. would sh*t in their pink panties for sure.

And it would be a bold display of Citizen Muscle flexing.

Of course, the pansies in the media would freak...but hey, that’s a GOOD thing.

While I hesitate to argue a legal point that I know we both agree with in theory, and I think we agree with in practice,the situation is what it is.

The civilian “elected” Feds have no intention of performing their sworn legal duties.
The various “elected” State governments must now decide how they will react to this, since “the people” are now starting to actively object to the lack of action by “the government”, in ever growing numbers.

Even ignorant of history, politics, and current world events,many of “our contented citizens” are now understanding the extent of the danger our “elected leaders” have thrust upon them. We live in interesting times.

The only way to ensure our southern border security is to
Annex Northern Mexican States to the United States
Start with annexing the northernmost five states of Sonora (pop. 2,394,861), Chihuahua (pop. 3,241,444), Coahuila (pop. 2,495,200), Nuevo Leon (pop. 4,199,292) and Tamaulipas (pop. 3,024,238) and the two Baja states of Baja (pop. 2,844,469) and Baja Sur (pop. 512,170).

Then maybe annex the next four just south of those: Sinaloa (pop. 2,608,442), Durango (pop. 1,509,117), Zacatecas (pop. 1,367,692), and San Luis Potosi (pop. 2,410,414).

Annex a total of 11 states and a population of 26,607,339 (in 2005) or round it to about 30 million or somewhat less than California or a bit more than Texas.
Based on the 2005 Mexican census

Map of Mexican States

Then annex Canada for another 14 states (Labrador and Newfoundland separately) and 30 million people.

If we're gonna be blamed for being an empire, we may as well BE an empire!
