This article is about the drug cartel taking over Arizona borders. It includes information on what the Ranchers near the border are dealing with and their plea to the President to see for himself. The President stopped the ICE angency from handling it and situations have gotten worse.

The ATF sent guns to Mexico on purpose saying it was to track them to higher ranking cartel members. They gave working firearms to known smugglers and Mexican Cartel members. Then the plan backfired, they lost all the guns, couldn't track them, and now U.S. citizens have died by those guns.

In Southwest Arizona, where the United States and Mexico borders meet on reservation land owned by Native American tribes, many Native American people feel caught in the crossfire between the Border Patrol and the Mexican cartels. This is an area with one of the fewest amounts of Border Control protection, allowing a much higher rate of infiltration by drug smugglers and leaving the Native American people caught in the middle of the problem.
