Some of this news can be far fetched so Im asking the source

Is it true you really have a National Wildlife Refuge closed because of to much drug trafficking?

Yea it's a pretty tall story, not to believable, Still like to hear from anyone that lives near there and what they say about it even if they can verify the warning signs  up,  They say its Closed for construction since 2006 but the warning signs up, are they photo props?

[bass or bass ?]

I don't know if there any closures due to smugglers, but Pipe Organ National Monument has signs warning visitors that they are entering very dangerous areas. Mexican drug gang gun battle recently left 21 dead just 12 miles south of the border.I hace a concealed weapon permit and I never go anywhere unarmed.  I have at least 3 guns on board my boat when I go fishing. A .22 revolver loaded with snakeshot that I keep in my tacklebox, a M1911 .45 that is my designated boat gun that is kept in my boat bag, and whatever carry weapon I happen to be carrying that day, usually either a S&W model 59 9mm, or a S&W model 629 .44magnum with 4" barrel.

It becomes more dangerous every year here, those who criticize our soon to be enacted law should live here for a few months and then see how they feel about it.

One news will say YES its happening and another channel will say NO it made up.

I will admit this would be hard to believe that its happening cause its totally outrages, but now you say there's signs? man That's not right, why in the heck would they not want to stop the drug trafficking there, why just shut it down, what the heck they thinking???

this one right there really ticks me off the most out of everything in this political country.

Alright then, I'll try and move on, thanks BB and i for one support you states decision, someone has to get up off their . and do something about it 8-)
