3 Arizona counties closed to US citizens due to violence, appears they were closed in 2006

Americans prohibited from entering 3 Arizona counties, apparently since 2006. Federal government says not safe for Americans. Strange this hasn't been widely known until recently, however true to say George Bush and Obama agree that the US should have no borders.

• 6/18, Fox, "Five federal lands have travel warnings in place," by J. R. Miller

6/16, Fox, "Uptick in violence forces closing of parkland along Mexico border to Americans"

• "About 3,500 acres of southern Arizona along the Mexican border is closed to U.S. citizens due to increased violence in the region.

The closed off area stretches 80 miles along the border and includes part of the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge. It was closed in October 2006 "due to human safety concerns," the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said Wednesday in response to news reports on the closure.

Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu told Fox News that violence against law enforcement officers and U.S. citizens has increased in the past four months, further underscoring the need to keep the

80 miles of border land off-limits to Americans.

The refuge had been adversely affected by the increase in drug smugglers, illegal activity and surveillance, which made it dangerous for Americans to visit.

"The situation in this zone has reached a point where continued public use of the area is not prudent," said refuge manager Mitch Ellis.

“It’s literally out of control,” said Babeu. “We stood with Senator McCain and literally demanded support for 3,000 soldiers to be deployed to Arizona to get this under control and finally secure our border with Mexico. “

U.S. Fish and Wildlife officials have warned visitors in Arizona to beware of heavily armed drug smugglers and human traffickers.

“We need support from the federal government. It’s their job to secure the border and they haven’t done it,” said Babeu. “In fact, President Obama suspended the construction of the fence and it’s just simply outrageous.”

Signs have been posted

warning Americans not to cross into the closed off territory south of Interstate 8. Babeu said the signs are not enough – he said Arizona needs more resources to help scale back the violence caused by the drug cartels.

“We need action. It’s shameful that we, as the most powerful nation on Earth, … can’t even secure our own border and protect our own families.”"

from Gateway Pundit from sheriff interview:

"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.

FOX News reporter: Would you like to see some of the president’s outrage about the oil spill and some of the butt-kicking that he’s talked about doing applied there on the border as well?

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."

Who will file criminal charges against Obama admin. for refusal to accept oil skimmers resulting in choking dying animals on US coast?

• JUNE 11, 2010 Report on refusal to waive the Jones Act for US southern coast in spite of the fact that it's already being waived to install wind turbines off the Delaware coast and was waived by DHS after Katrina (from report in video).
  

Obama's point man on the scene, Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen (retired), says they need all the skimmers they can get (the 400 they have now are no where near enough). Many skimmers have been offered from the US and other countries, but offers have all been ignored or rejected. Near the end of the video are quotes clearly asking if the Coast Guard has received offers of help from ships that are non-US registered.

• The Coast Guard's official reply is "yes but they did not meet requirements" of our "area of command".The reporter asked, "Does the Jones Act apply in this case?" The Coast Guard's official answer was, "Yes."

Obama global warming chief Carol Browner in the video says she has not received any request from the Coast Guard to lift the Jones Act that she knows of. A meaningless statement at best, about as weighty as the idea of my 5 year old niece putting in such a request. The Coast Guard? And Retired?

Environmentalists out of the closet like Obama, show depraved indifference to suffering of wildlife, eco-system on US coastline

****

• ****This formally ends the 'do-gooder' persona of the so-called environmental

movement and the fantasy that it cares anything about air, water, or wildlife. It has made many of them quite wealthy at the expense of average Americans they despise.

• The so-called environmental movement reveals itself to be inhumane and selfish beyond imagination. Its members are quite content about the oil disaster

on the US coast. Not only do they not object to Obama's pointed hands-off approach to it, but some took out an ad in the Washington Post, (Obama's xerox machine) supporting him.

• The Sierra Club chairman himself shows depraved indifference to human and animal suffering by
  
• praising Obama's environmental stewardship.

Why would a vast movement claiming to be only about the welfare of animals and the planet all of a sudden show actual peace and contentment with the present situation?

• (Right of center, non-career politicians with strong voices might want to show up for the fight sometime soon. I do not refer to empty sound bites from Beltway cocktail circuit types).
  

6/12, Politico: "Last week, it seemed, environmentalists were finally ready to let loose on President Barack Obama over the Gulf oil spill.

• Actress Q’orianka Kilcher chained herself to the White House fence while her mother slathered the “Pocahontas” star in black paint meant to look like oozing crude.

Kilcher’s cause? Not the Gulf spill at all but oil-related abuses of indigenous people in Peru, whose president was visiting Obama that day.

• As the greatest environmental catastrophe in U.S. history has played out on Obama’s watch,
  

the environmental movement has essentially given him a pass — all but

• refusing to unleash
  

• any vocal criticism against the president
  

even as the public has grown more frustrated by Obama’s performance.

• About a dozen environmental groups took out a full page ad in the Washington Post Tuesday —
  

• not to fault Obama over the ecological catastrophe but

to thank him for putting on hold an Alaska drilling project. “We deeply appreciate your decision. ...” the ad says to Obama.

• President Obama is the best environmental president we’ve had since Teddy Roosevelt,” Sierra Club chairman Carl Pope

told the Bangor Daily News last week. “He obviously did not take the crisis in the Minerals Management Service adequately seriously, that’s clear.

• But his agencies have done a
  

phenomenally good job."...

Obama says, 'I can't suck it up with a straw.' Where are the so-called environmentalists at this cavalier indifference?

6/12/10: "“I can’t swim down and plug the hole… I can’t suck it up with a straw.”...
President Obama whines to reporters, “I can’t suck it up with a straw.”"...from Gateway Pundit

• If so-called environmentalists heard such cavalier language at this criminally late date from anyone other than Obama they would object, proving again their primary interest is politics, not the planet.
  

If an idiot republican made a selfish statement like this, there would be violent protests in the streets, buses in from International Answer and MoveOn.org. Which means no one should ever listen to so-called 'green' groups again about anything. ed.
