reality

PHOENIX -- Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano will be in
southern Arizona Tuesday to tour the border. Napolitano recently
declared the border is as safe as it has ever been. Patrick Bray with
the Arizona Cattlemen's Association said ranchers will tell you that
just isn't so.

Dangerous drug and human smugglers have been able to elude ground
sensors and cameras. "They know when the cameras are operating and
where they're at," Bray said.

Bray also noted that barbed wire fence is all that separates Arizona
ranches from dangerous smugglers on much of the border. He's calling
for more boots on the ground to protect ranchers.

"The people moving the drugs are animals," said Bray. "They have no
regard for human life or the law. Since last February one rancher has
had 17 drive-through's on his property, where the smugglers cut the
fence and drive a vehicle through and make it to the highway.

Bray said Napolitano is playing politics and not looking at the
safety of people who live and work along the border. "She was the
Governor of Arizona and for her to throw this state under the bus is
a shame," said Bray. "We stand by having border security first."
