  1. I live in Flagstaff, and all the roads around here are still closed. Many if not most are probably still impassable due to snow drifts and very very muddy. It may be another month until they open up above the Rim.

    So. AZ forest may be closed!

    Short of putting up the equivellant of the Berlin Wall across the Southern Border of the US there is no stopping it unless conditions improve in Mexico. The answer is not here in the US unless we create a military state and spend whos knows how much trying to stop this flood. It would be wiser for the US to spend the money in Mexico to improve the way of life down there than to try and stop it. Personally I don't want to have to drive from check point to check point here to go out into the wildlands. Unfortunately, creating an eastern block military state is the only way to stop it. Unless more is done to stop the reason these people feel they must leave their homeland. heck I'd leave Mexico today if I was a common laborer down there. Our worste jobs pay significantly better than anything they can hope for at home. I don't want to sound like a bleeding heart liberal here, just a rational man who believes in the human dignity of all. It's just something my Christian upbringing gives me. I just think we're trying to cure the symptom not the disease. The disease is bad and could be terminal to our way of life. Lets quit trying to cure the symtom and look at how the US can cut the tumor out. No easy problem when the disease is in another country. Jeff
