Instead the government gives up land in Arizona to the drug cartels, telling citizens to stay away from great areas of land that are used by violent drug dealers.
Jan Brewer is heading them off.
Most galling is Mexico's so-called conservative president calling on Arizona to discard the new law which most resembles their own laws regarding immigration:
Mexican President Felipe Calderon has been ripping into Arizona's immigration law as he tours Washington -- while appearing to disregard the way his own country cracks down on immigrants along Mexico's southern border.
Mexico repeatedly has been cited by human rights groups for abusing or turning a blind eye to the abuse of migrants from Central America. Until recently, Mexican law made illegal immigration a criminal offense -- anyone arrested for the violation could be fined, imprisoned for up to two years and deported. Mexican lawmakers changed that in 2008 to make illegal immigration a civil violation like it is in the United States, but their law still reads an awful lot like Arizona's.
