My name is BorderGene (Ken) Johnson; I moved to Douglas, AZ - Sister City to Agua Prieta, Sonora, Mexico from Montana in 1987. I accepted a challenge from my employer located in Salt Lake City, UT to operate the historic Gadsden Hotel in Douglas - (Google it to understand my undertaking. To make a long story short I have never left the border rather I have learned the inter-workings quite well as a manufacturer (maquiladora) for 15 years - as a Business Analyst for the Small Business Development Center in Sierra Vista, AZ which is on the U.S. Mexico border as well. I am obsessed with studying monitoring and analyzing a tree full of data about the border communities in Arizona in addition to the other border states. I became so obsessed with what I was learning that on October 9, 2004 I began writing a book titled Peligroso (Danger) focused on the relationship of terrorist organizations with the Mexican cartels and now even Mexico's government. I was forced to take a break due to some health issues which have forced me to retire professionally; I recently began new research to try and finish the book hence I found this astounding forum. On February 21, 2011 I wrote in my book:
"The article released today, February 21, 2011, gives me reason to stop writing, it's sort of like "the jig is up". "I hope, always I hope, that what I have written and do not have the resources to formally publish will shed light on the gravity of our dire situation as a nation. Our border to the south has been breached; we have failed as a nation to secure this border and protect ourselves. We are too late - God help us."
As of today, the data and information I am finding is simply frightening; as I told my wife whom I found in the Gadsden "we are so screwed. Will speak to you soon, Ken.
