Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu, who has been a sharp critic of the Obama administration's border policy, had said about 40 immigrant children were to be bused to an academy north of Tucson, even though residents did not want them there. &quot;We don't need an additional issue here when we have our hands full with drug smugglers and others who pass through our county,&quot; Babeu told the demonstrators.</p><br clear="all"/>
