They survived by digging a canal system to bring water from rivers far away. Those same canals are what feeds Phoenix it’s water a milenia later. We just added cement to them.

Yup. Evaporative cooling was popular in AZ before electricity was available. In the late 1800s to early 1900s there were many homes and building with cooling towers on them. People would hang wet sheets across them and the cooling effect would create a current as it fell down the tower which would on turn create more draft across the cooling cloth.
Horse shit.
It was never abandoned. The valley was steadily habitated for thousands of years by a number of tribes before American settlers forces the Yaqui from the land.

Red Flag Laws are a dangerous attack on constitutional rights…and I’m not talking about the 2A.
They are a blatant violation of the 4th, 5th, and 6th Amendments, and in many cases also the 1st.
Unreasonably seizures (4th)
Depriving someone of liberty and property without due process (5th)
Not being represented by council, be allowed to confront witnesses or gather their own whitnesses (6th)
All done with the justification of things a person said or the way they act (1st)
A judge ordering a person to give up their rights and property without a trial, based on accusations, or even an investigation of the accusations…is fucking terrifying.
