		It’s also the approach Bill Richardson and Arizona Governor Janet Napolitano are insisting upon with their declaration of states of emergency along their borders, which was mainly prompted by a lack of resources to deal with immigration-related drug crimes and violence.

		Governors Napolitano and Richardson rightly declared a State of Emergency, but this just calls for more of what the federal government has already proven to be decidedly disinterested in providing, and leaves the Mexican border residents of these two states just as umprotected as they were before this bit of political grandstanding.
