Sheriff: Mexican Cartels Control Parts of Arizona

Sheriff: Mexican Cartels Control Parts of Arizona

The federal government has posted signs along a major interstate highway in Arizona, more than 100 miles north of the U.S.-Mexico border, warning travelers the area is unsafe because of drug and alien smugglers, and a local sheriff says Mexican drug cartels now control some parts of the state

The signs were posted by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) along a 60-mile stretch of Interstate 8 between Casa Grande and Gila Bend, a major east-west corridor linking Tucson and Phoenix with San Diego.

They warn travelers that they are entering an “active drug and human smuggling area” and they may encounter “armed criminals and smuggling vehicles traveling at high rates of speed.” Beginning less than 50 miles south of Phoenix, the signs encourage travelers to “use public lands north of Interstate 8″ and to call 911 if they “see suspicious activity.”

Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu, whose county lies at the center of major drug and alien smuggling routes to Phoenix and cities east and west, attests to the violence. He said his deputies are outmanned and outgunned by drug traffickers in the rough-hewn desert stretches of his own county.

Sheriff: Mexican Cartels Control Parts of Arizona

Do you know and understand what an invasion is?

invasion – noun
1. an act or instance of invading or entering as an enemy, esp. by an army.
2. the entrance or advent of anything troublesome or harmful, as disease.
3. entrance as if to take possession or overrun: the annual invasion of the resort by tourists.
4. infringement by intrusion

What’s happening along the U.S. border with Mexico is well defined by all parts of that definition except for one part, #3, they aren’t tourists and this isn’t a resort. Well, on 2nd thought, for them it may well BE a resort.

Now, does anyone know what it means to be a sovereign nation? Do you know the definition of sovereignty?

sovereignty – noun, plural -ties.
1. the quality or state of being sovereign.
2. the status, dominion, power, or authority of a sovereign; royalty.
3. supreme and independent power or authority in government as possessed or claimed by a state or community.
4. rightful status, independence, or prerogative.
5. a sovereign state, community, or political unit.

The act of invasion is an ACT OF WAR against a sovereign nation. These Mexican cartels have, and are currently engaged in, Acts of WAR against the United States of America.

“Mexican drug cartels literally do control parts of Arizona,” he said. “They literally have scouts on the high points in the mountains and in the hills and they literally control movement. They have radios, they have optics, they have night-vision goggles as good as anything law enforcement has.

“This is going on here in Arizona,” he said. “This is 70 to 80 miles from the border - 30 miles from the fifth-largest city in the United States.”

So, what does the U.S. government, the entity that is supposed to react to, and in turn repel foreign invaders do?

He said he asked the Obama administration for 3,000 National Guard soldiers to patrol the border, but what he got were 15 signs.

15 signs? That’s it. 15 signs, and a handful of National Guard troops that aren’t allowed to go on a search and destroy mission. Oh hell no, all they can do is watch and look and call in the U.S. Border Patrol if the see any ILLEGAL activity.

That my friends, is exactly how the President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama goes about defending the sovereignty of this United States and protecting our SOVEREIGN nation!

Multiple Ranches in Laredo, TX Taken Over by Los Zetas

Invasion or Hoax? Did The Cypress Times get *had*?

Publisher’s Note: We are now receiving numerous conflicting reports regarding the veracity of this article. Numerous sources on the web (found via Google search) are picking up on this report, just as we did at The Cypress Times. The original writer for this article stands by his sources. If you wish to inquire about the sources, please visit the original story source URL listed in the article body below. I can tell you that as of now The Cypress Times has been unable to confirm the story. - John G. Winder, Publisher - The Cypress Times.

UPDATE: Story is now 100% confirmed by second source within the Laredo Police Department

The bloodbath continues along our southern border and now word is coming in that Los Zetas, the highly trained killers formerly with the Gulf Cartel, have crossed into the United States and taken over at least two ranches in the Laredo, Texas area. I am receiving word that the owners of the ranches have evacuated without being harmed.

Founder of the San Diego Minutemen Jeff Schwilk tipped me off to this story and passes along the following information on the location. The ranches are said to be “near Mines Rd. and Minerales Annex Rd about 10 miles NW of I-35″.

Update - Statement from Mr. Schwilk)

I can personally vouch that this info came in late last night from a reliable police source inside the Laredo PD. There is currently a standoff between the unknown size Zeta forces and U.S. Border Patrol and local law enforcement on two ranches on our side of the Rio Grande. The source tells us he considers this an “act of war” and that the military is needed on the border now!

Whether it is lone members or squads is not certain.

BREAKING: Multiple Ranches in Laredo, TX Taken Over by Los Zetas - TheCypressTimes

The 1st RULE of good journalism is VERIFY! There is NO OTHER news source on the ‘net that is posting this story.

Many blogs and forums have posted this piece, it went viral in a very short time. I have also seen quite a few sites that are taking this piece down, removing it from their sites because there are some serious doubts in the minds of responsible bloggers.

Local law enforcement was bombarded with calls from across the country Saturday asking about a report that the Zetas had taken over two ranches off Mines Road.

But officials with the Laredo Police Department, Webb County Sheriff’s Department and Border Patrol said they knew nothing about such an incident, while Erik Vasys, an FBI spokesman in San Antonio, said the agency does not comment on rumors.

The report, which spread like wildfire among blogs Saturday afternoon, appears to have initially been posted on a blog called Diggers Realm.

Officials know nothing of rumored Zeta standoff on Mines Road

I have been cautioning a lot of folks, be VERY careful in re-posting this story, NONE of the BIG news services have it, no other source in Texas has it other than The Cypress News.

I called the Laredo, TX Police Dept. and they said they have NO information and referred me to the Webb County Sheriffs Office. I called the Webb County S.O. and got NO answer.

I can’t, and won’t post this as an irrefutable fact on MY blog, simply because one paper, The Cypress Journal, doesn’t give enough citation of source. Especially when the paper says the Laredo PD is their source and the Laredo PD denies it.

Some have said that a TOTAL NEWS BLACKOUT has been imposed on the MSM. I find that VERY hard to believe. Even a total blackout would still render at least some information.

The MSM is a devious bunch, they’d have a guy up in an Ultra-Lite plane with a cell phone camera if that’s what it took.

This is either a huge hoax or a huge cover-up. I’m thinking HOAX!
