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. My mistake......still 3500 acres out of 118K has you upset? That's ridiculous. You're looking for trouble. 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. I never said it was good but I still think you are making a mountain out of a molehill. 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. The only person whose pontificating is you. May I suggest you take off your conservative hat and try to see things in a more balanced nature. It has been reported over and over again that the violence on the AZ border with Mexico has been in decline for years. It is one of the more heavily patrolled sections of the border. And it has been shown that a fence and border patrols are not enough to stop the flow of immigrants. We have a serious problem....I don't disagree but the new AZ law is not the solution.
