Arizona Now Has ‘Whopping 30’ National Guard Troops and 15 Billboard Signs Warning Citizens About Drug Cartels Operating on Public Lands

Bureau of Land Management sign in Arizona, "DANGER - PUBLIC WARNING, TRAVEL NOT RECOMMENDED, Visitors May Encounter Armed Criminals and Smuggling Vehicles Traveling at High Rates of Speed."
(CNSNews.com) – Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu said requests by Arizona law enforcement personnel and Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) for 3,000 National Guard troops along the state’s border with Mexico have been answered so far with 1 percent of that number deployed there this week.
 
“We have a whopping 30 [National Guard troops] this week that are showing up,” Babeu told CNSNews.com. “It’s less than a half-hearted measure designed to fail.”
 
But the federal Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has placed 15 signs along a 60-mile stretch of Interstate 8 that links San Diego with Phoenix and Tucson warning travelers of drug cartels and human trafficking operations.
 
“DANGER – PUBLIC WARNING, TRAVEL NOT RECOMMENDED,” read the signs placed along Interstate 8. “Visitors May Encounter Armed Criminals and Smuggling Vehicles Traveling at High Rates of Speed. Stay Away From Trash, Clothing, Backpacks, and Abandoned Vehicles.”
 
“BLM Encourages Visitors To Use Public Land North of Interstate 8,” the signs say.
 
“I think the American people are outraged that we can fight wars half-way around the world, send our nation’s treasury and our most precious resources – our American heroes that serve in the military -- and yet here in our own country somehow they believe it’s okay  for us not to have a secure border,” Said Sheriff Babeu.
 
“And that it’s okay to put up signs in my county and parts of America to surrender parts of our country to foreign born criminals,” Babeu added, “warning our own American citizens to stay out.”

In May, President Barack Obama said he would deploy 1,200 National Guard troops to the U.S.-Mexico border to help quell the violence there, which is less than half of the 3,000 troops requested by Babeu, Cochise County Sheriff Larry Dever, Sen. McCain and Sen. Kyl for Arizona’s border during a press conference on Capitol Hill in April.
 
The Obama administration has said it will deploy National Guard troops to the southern border incrementally to eventually have 1,500 troops in place. In addition, $600 million in “emergency border protection funding” was approved in legislation the president signed into law in August.
 
Babeu said the warning signs are 70 to 80 miles from the border and just 30 miles from Phoenix, the fifth largest city in the United States.

You guys start popping the corn. This is going to get really ugly!! You can't believe the people who are loading up around here! Hussein's clipboard guys are going to be the first to get it!  Bill T.

Keep us informed of the 'temperature', Bill.

I have a conspiracy theory about the NG on the border BS. Granted this is a way out of left field thing, but it fits with the whole socialist/ globalist agenda. To the left, our military is a bunch of thugs. So anything they can do to force a "failure" on the part of our military, is a victory in their eyes.

If they refuse to send adequate personnel and equipment to the border, then they can turn around and spew about how our military is ineffective for this type of mission. Oh, and since it's not an issue that law enforcement can handle we need a higher authority. Oh, and lets not forget that this is an international issue. Whatever shall we do?!?!? 

George Soros Solution......Bring in the blue helmets. 

I'll be returning to reality now.....

Agee on a conspiracy by the Left.  My guess is that we need to send Aid to Mexico and legalize pot in the USA.  Obama will apologize for the American appetite for drugs and cheap labor and blame our country rather than the Mexican criminals.  The Lobbyists are all over this I am sure and our fine members of Congress will make out handsomely on the deal, as always.

Southern lawmen are really fed up with Hussein, along with all of his crap. This just continues to fester like an open sore. Somethings got to give. Remember over 26,000 dead since all of this started. What's the death count in the Iraq, Afghan war?, 6,000 tops over 8 years? And all there is between us and them is some chain link. Bad, bad, bad!   Bill T.

as far as I'm concerned the only signs that shoul be be put up are ones that face south and read "WARNING, If you can read this your are in range and if you take one more step north you will be shot" Then let a few bodies pile up and there will be no more problems. But I guess that would be asking too much of the government .

I'm waiting for Brewer to call up a "Citizens Militia". They would have so many guns down there in nothing flat, it would make Hussein's head spin. What would he do, start an "Investigation", or else "Bring home our Ambassador"?   Bill T.

Worse!!! He would sent Napolitano, and Emanual down there to "exploit another crisis".

It could well be that something just like this will start the 'end game'.  Citizens called up and BHO calls the Amy / LEO to stop it.
