Congrats Arizona...only a couple more years before you "ARE" Mexico. Perhaps the USA should move the boundary north a state before working on the new secure border barriers. Arizona is a casulity of this "invisible" war, time to move on to saving the other states.
P.S. California is right behind Arizona...ranked the least competitive economic state in the USA by Wall Street Journal in 2007 (so much for the cheap illegal labor theory). Time to pass new taxes for "uninsured/illegal" immigrant healthcare "rights". Time for more financially unsubstainable Californian entitlements to those who are not even California citizens...
Also since instead of bringing long-needed reforms into place, Mexico solves it's problems through emigration.
Massive emigration not only fails to solve the problems of social injustice but it creates a vacuum as the more motivated people leave. It does not build up an economy -- except for a remittance-dependent economy where people sit around and wait for the monthly wire.
Crime is skyrocketing in Mexico and crime there is becoming shockingly violent -- pre-NAFTA Mexico was actually not very violent.

IMO, having this sort of crime, common in Mexico, begin occurring in the US may be what pushes the US citizenry over the edge. If US citizens are kidnapped and held for ransom, if US citizens are tortured and slain with machetes and if US citizens go out for the evening only to find someone has rolled severed heads onto the dance floor.........eventually the point will be reached where no amount of platitudes about what good, hardworking people they are will placate us.

You may have spoken too soon.
The anti illegal sentiment here is Arizona is hardening-------they are running scared now that the judiciary as well as law enforcement have been unleashed on 'em.
This is sad to see this type of thing happening in the US. I realize we have had kidnappings here for generations and generations. But 340 in one year? And these are just the ones reported.
Anyone beginning to get the feeling we are being colonized?
hey.. the illegals who now are sneaking over can find a NEW job now..
All they have to do is follow the weed smuggling trail!
