Get real. Don't worry about offending WHITE people in Arizona, worry
about getting into hassles with drug smugglers and the coyotes who
smuggle
illegal aliens across the border and into the metropolitan areas.
Maricopa county law enforcement have reported about 450 kidnappings in
the Phoenix area this year, so don't look too prosperous as you move
around
the area.
If you see Mexicans walking along a road in the desert *do not* stop
to offer them a ride, no matter how pitiful they look, it might be an
ambush intended to kidnap you or you might just involve yourself with
abetting a Mexican's illegal entry into the country.
If you see a bunch of Mexicans that seem to be camping in the bushes,
get the heck away from that area.
Mexican drug traffickers or alien smugglers killed a ranger in Organ
Pipe National Monument last year, it's right at the border.
I was really surprised when I visited OPNM and saw that a Mexican
highway paralleled the border and there were big trucks moving east
from Tecate towards Nogales.
There was nothing except a barbed wire cattle fence to keep
*livestock* from crossing the border.
There were three or four Mexican cars parked next to the fence and as
soon as I saw the empty cars, I got my ass out of there as fast as
possible.

Keith, rise and repeat after me:
"A good illegal alien is dead illegal alien recycled into something
useful".
