Default Obama surrenders Arizona territory back to Mexico...

sort of

http://www.thefoxnation.com/gulf-coa...trip-az-mexico

Arizona needs to secede and raise its own military and handle this.





yet there remains those who will blindly follow the beat of the buffoon's drum.

Uh, remember the Alamo? The what?

I can't help thinking this whole AZ is ground zero business would be moot if it weren't for the drug/gang violence. This get the alien brown out thinking is not new to the U.S. either, it's just more visable in the current insta-info age.

The article doesn't really convince me that the title is true. It just tells me that a region of Arizona has become too dangerous for civvies - which, frankly, if that's true then we really need some trained guns on patrol there.

I'd look deeper into this using a wider variety of news sources before settling on anything as being concrete fact. Fox News is only one of those sources, and I think they tend to be sensationalist.


I will admit that Fox News hires some really good looking redheads.

Aside from the source...

i pose a question that some of you will either be unable or unwilling to answer...

ready?

here goes:

"do you feel that when a foreign criminal contingent's violence spills over into the United States, that the United States government should react to such an intrusion?"

yes or no?

Obama seems to think that simply making affected areas of America off limits to American's solves the problem.

I respectfully disagree with the sorry, no good, traitor, SOB.

^^ Yes. There should be a very public mobilization to show that he's on the ball.

How dumb are Fox for complaining about the border fence construction being stopped while showing footage of illegals just climbing over a border fence that has already been built?

Serous question here...

Lots of people want the army to go in and secure the border in AZ. Normally that is the job of the US Border Patrol, a law enforcement organization. Does US law (Specifically Pose Comitatus) allow the military to act as a LEOs against foreigners on US soil?

if you ask me Mr. Obama is all kinda wrong, this is yet again another instance where he has proven to america that it was really one big freaking mistake to vote him into office.
Was Bush the wrong kinda president too then, as warning signs have been in existance for years?
So as two of Arizonas national monuments, a wildlife refuge and a national forest all have had these kind of warning signs for ages and as this story is only a matter of a couple more signs being added at one of those locations after a policeman was murdered doesn't it make the sensationalist angle of the news story which people are getting upset about pretty bogus.

yes i suppose you are right!!! i was just making a point on how Obama promised us all of this great stuff and we have not seen none of it. he is a habitual liar, there are two kinds of people i cant stand in this world and those are liars and thief's and there aint much difference in the two and to me Mr. Obama is both.

Having a part of Arizona be too dangerous for US. Citizens is completely different that giving it back to mexico. Shame on you FOX have you no decency? You'll say anything on a headline to pander to your viewer base and get ratings

Well, on one hand, if the government keeps putting the problem off then that part of Arizona may well become Mexican cartel territory. It's not like the US is handing the land over to Mexico and saying "Here you go. We didn't have any use for it, may as well be yours now.", they are just not expressing a whole lot of concern over the increasing threats from cartel violence. Let alone doing much about it.
