The US border states with Mexico, are an undeclared 'war zone', due to drug and illegal immigrant smuggling .
The two major 'cash crops' into the state of Arizona from Mexico, are drugs and illegal aliens .
Arizona's three main exports to Mexico, are stolen vehicles, drug money and guns !!!!!!
Arizona has had an 'open carry' law for decades, you can legally carry a weapon, as long at it's in plain view .
If you are ever in Arizona after July of this year, and get pulled over for a traffic violation, be prepared to be facing down a gun as a law enforcement officer approaches your vehicle .
Arizona is even ready to take on the federal government, by passing a law, that any weapon or ammunition manufactured in the state of Arizona is exempt from any federal law governing firearms, as long as that weapon or ammunition is not transported outside of the state of Arizona .
If I can find an article on it, I'll post it.
