Yes, 3 1/2 acres of the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge are closed off to Americans. This is what has you flipped out? Seriously?

You might benefit from reading your own link again. It's over 3,500 acres. 3% of 118,000 acres.

From time to time, portions of national parks are closed off for any variety of reasons. Under Bush it was to mine and drill.....I never heard any of you guys complain when that was happening.

Military bases are off limits as are other designated areas which serve a US purpose. The area in Arizona is closed off because of the actions of a Foreign Nation and I don't hear you complaining one bit.

As for a link proving to you that areas of the Chiricahuas are off limits, you'll have to come down here and talk to the Forest Service, the Border Patrol and the Sheriff for yourself, but that would mean you'd have to stop pontification and get out of your liberal armchair. I doubt you'd be willing to do that.

Link please.


I know anecdotal evidence probably isn't what you are looking for, but I have worked with the Border Patrol in Douglas AZ in the area to which Elmer is referring. He can probably identify most of the locations in the photos below (including College Peak)

I spent a lot of time in the area and not only are there large areas of open land that are flat out not open to the public because of the danger, the city of Douglas itself is hostile area to anybody that is associated with any form of law enforcement.

While working in the Douglas area I was attacked by rock throwing fence hoppers. And while working on College Peak we ran across some of the violence that happens out in the wilderness. Note the photos of the vultures. They had a good meal courtesy of the Mexican drug runners in the Chiricahua mountains.
