Until Further Notice: CLOSED!

Arch at Buenos Aires N.W.R.


A public announcement from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service: "The situation in this zone has reached a point where continued public use of the area is not prudent. The Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge [in Arizona] has been adversely affected by border-related activities. The international border with Mexico has also become increasingly violent.

Assaults on law enforcement officers and violence against migrants have
escalated. Violence on the Refuge associated with smugglers and border bandits has been well documented."

Pro-immigration enforcement activists and park rangers have been warning of the violence (and trash) at these public lands/tourist attractions, near the border, for years. One young park ranger was even murdered by a drug dealer at the Organ Pipe. It is insane, that the federal government with all its military resources, has done zero to deal with this crisis. Now it comes to this. Expect more closings in the near future.

Part of the regime's de facto ceding of the SW to Mexico.

Indeed; U.S. Citizens no longer having access to their own soil - how sad.
