#1 Arpaio is doing this the wrong way. To start with, it should be under State auspices, to overcome any border county disputes, as well as an agreement with the Tohono O'odham Indians, whose reservation goes from central AZ all the way into Mexico.

Then the State can offer incentives to *unemployed* citizens to act as lookouts, to augment uniformed personnel, and to provide support services to each other, such as transportation, food and water.

This would put a lot of people on the border for low cost, and seal up the border pretty tight. Guaranteed that Washington would set up a major howl, however.

Joe Arpaio is about Joe Arpaio first and foremost. Putting this under Arizona control means he doesn't get his name in the papers.
