Gaming the Border: a Report from Cochise County, Arizona [and the latest video]
Center for Immigration Studies ^ | August, 2010

Posted on 08/14/2010 2:00:50 PM PDT by T.L.Sink

Federal officials routinely assure the public that they are gaining control over the Arizona border. Despite these assertions, this video and a multitude of other surveillance documents show why the border there remains porous, as illegal immigrants avoid the Border Patrol and walk around checkpoints on highways north of the border. The video opens at the ranch of John Ladd who sees an endless stream of illegals trapsing across his property from his kitchen window.

KEYWORDS: aliens
Janet Napolitano, head of (to borrow an expression from Michelle Malkin) Homeland Insecurity, assures us the border has "never been so secure" as now. In any court, based on an abundance of clear evidence to the contrary, she would be found guilty of criminal neglegence. Meanwhile, Arizonans face ever-increasing taxes and physical endangerment due to bankrupt public school districts, insolvent hospitals, prison incarcerations, out-of-control social welfare costs and the murder and mayhem caused by the drug cartel. (And among the hordes of illegal aliens are some terrorists - but what do Napolitano and Obama care about that with all these new potential Democrats!)

While all the wonder of First Amendment theory is illustrated by “the immigration debate,” discussion, the expression of different points of view; invaders flood over our borders forever transmuting America into their third world hell hole. The media and its masters want you to keep debating, discussing, expressing opinions and voting all while they change us into serfs and in the process sell soap! Just don’t DO anything effective!

Posting signs like these has legal implications that go straight to the heart of American sovereignty. 0baMao has asserted that southern Arizona has been ceded to Mexico.

Gov. Brewer to President Obama ...(Must see video)

Look what they found near the Texas and Mexico border (See pix)

Exactly - this is why I used the words “criminal NEGLIGENCE” as it relates to Obama and Napolitano willfully failing to enforce the laws against ILLEGAL immigration - and the Arizona law perfectly mirrors FEDERAL law. They’ve found a convenient excuse - used by all open-border advocates - which is that we have to wait for “comprehensive” immigration reform. Bull! They also don’t want to admit it but by that they mean AMNESTY.

Putting aside for a moment the vast array of federal and state laws against illegal immigration that go unenforced, the politicians who take a solemn oath to uphold and defend the U.S. Constitution are guilty of perjury if they willfully fail to obey their constitutional mandate:

Article.IV., Section. 4. (U.S. Constitution):

The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion.

The plain English meaning of those words is so clear that even Ruth Bader would have a hard time distorting and misinterpreting them! That’s why the open-borders amnestyites just prefer to ignore them.

I certainly don’t believe that what they are doing is an accident or a miscalculation.

We cannot have a War on Drugs without Drugs, more than 80% of All Controlled Substances come across the Mexican border into the US. More than 50% of all Peace Officers,Probation Officers,Courts,Prisons,Jails,..... Are directly related to the War on Controlled Substances. If we were to close the Border and have real security, the war on controlled substances would be over immediately. Who will be the one to Fire all these Public Employees??? NEVER GONNA HAPPEN, We need the War on Controlled Substances more than anything.

That’s all true IMO. But things have gone beyond the war on drugs in Mexico. We do need to shut the border ASAP for our own security.
