Ariz. Law is working

Before it even goes into effect, it's working. Good for them. Since the feds can't do anything about it and Janet "The system worked" Napolitano thinks everything's hunky-dory, Arizona takes matters into its own hands.

"Illegal immigrants plan to leave over Ariz. law"
http://apnews.myway.com/article/20100429/D9FCDCN00.html

The operative word being ILLEGAL.

There is no way in hell I am going but would like to be a fly on the wall.

Thousands are supposed to show up for some protest to AZ's doings in downtown Dallas.

I pity these protestors.
There are about 100 better things they can all do with their time tonight.

Did you guys see the article that AZ Gov Jan Brewer had in ESPN? Here's the link: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/comme...=brewer/100505

Living in northern Virginia, illegal immigration has always been somewhat of an afterthought for me. Most of the Mexican people I have encountered seem to be friendly, hard working and generally good people.

But I'm not from a border state, and from what I understand this is just as much about drugs and crime as it is about anything else. And I'm not sure you can really weigh on this law if you aren't from somewhere (San Francisco) that has been really affected by some of the activities around the border. Even some of the most liberal friends that I have in AZ support this, not because they haven something against Mexicans, but because they see what some of the cartels and people smuggling are doing to their neighborhoods. And really, that gives all Mexicans a bad name - even if the vast majority are here doing work that no American would do, for less wages and limited (if any) benefits. But alas, no politician wants to touch this because whoever is on the wrong side will forever alienate what will be the largest voting bloc of Americans in the next decade.

Anyway, I'm no expert but that's my $.02.

This just goes to show that we do not have enough enforcement for the laws that are already established and in place. I think all 'legal' immigrants should be given a lanyard to wear around their neck that displays a goverment issued identification card that proves there credentials. That way they don't have to bitch about being "asked" to show their papers. Everyone will be able to see them at all times.

How about if when we send the illegals back to where they came from we tattoo THEIR foreheads with big letters "IA" That way if they enter the US again we can spot them right away.

Sort if like a scarlet letter.

How about we tattoo the CEOs of the corporations that hire illegal aliens. It could read something like "I hire black market labor to keep costs down"

I knew a guy who got a tattoo on his forehead that read, "I got drunk one night and let someone inject permanent ink under my skin"

I read an article today about a mother with 2 hispanic children, all of them are are legal, but the children were worried and asked the mother if they were going to be asked for their "papers".

This mother can thank all those that oppose the law that have blown things all out of proportion, for this.

The governor of AZ is NOT to blame for the woman's children being worried about their papers, since the law is NOT going to result in police stopping hispanic children on the street and asking them for papers.

All this loudmouth opposition has gone way too far. ....and now they have the biggest loudmouth of all....Mr Hot Air himself, Al Sharpton getting involved. (sigh)

I cant believe you guys are glad for the IA's getting sent back. I just dont think its fair for them. Wouldn't you want a chance/ opportunity for a better life if you were born in a 3rd world country?Most of the worthless POS scumbags and homeless in the US are the citizens. Whatever though it is, what it is.

Yeah of course I'd like to deport every one in this country whom I deem a piece of shit.

There is a process to live here legally if you come from a third world country. Whether or not that process should be more accommodating is a different debate.

You won't get empathy from this group. They are pretty all under the belief that one CHOOSES to be poor or rich.

Not looking for any, don't want to argue about it neither. Simply just stating how I feel about whats going on.
