This is an email I received this morning from my aunt.
How would you like to be living in a state held hostage by Political Correctness.
Hey everyone out there!
We, in Arizona, know you're boycotting us -- but you really should come out here and see our Beautiful Sonoran Desert.
This is on an 'illegal super - highway' from Mexico to the USA (Tucson) used by human smugglers.
This area is located in a wash, approximately 1.5 miles long, just south of Tucson. If a flood came, all of this would be washed to the river and then onto the sea.
It is estimated that over 5,000 discarded backpacks are in the wash. Countless water containers, food wrappers, clothing, feces, including thousands of soiled diapers.
As we kept walking down the wash, we thought for sure it was going to end, but around every corner was more and more trash!
And of course the trail leading out of the wash in our city, heads directly NORTH into Tucson, then leads to your town tomorrow.
They've already come through here. Isn't Arizona just beautiful, America? Why would you boycott us?
Our desert has basically been turned into a landfill.
