As an Arizona resident I was extremely proud to discover that Phoenix is number 2 in the world. Until I found out that it was in the area of kidnapping. Unfortunately, it is a well known dirty secret around these parts, and unlikely to receive much interest for what passes as a newspaper here, The Arizona Republic. This is what happens when you elect a pea-brained mayor like Phil Gordon whose policies have created a sanctuary city, something he vehemently denies, despite all evidence to the contrary. The man uses the [non] word "irregardless", for heaven's sake.
Couple that with the fact that our former Gov. Jimmy Napolitano is now head of the roost at the Dept. of Homeland Security, and it will give you a taste of what is to come. More open borders insanity.
Ed Morrissey over at Hot Air has more. I would like to reiterate his excellent point. Is there a more worthy, or more "shovel ready" project than the border fence?. Yet, nary a mention in the biggest porkfest in the history of the USA. It's a disgrace!
