Yes it is a well thought our argument and one sided. To be fair I would like to read one from the other side. Seriously, as I have gotten older I have become less likely to jump on a bandwagon especially when I am not directly impacted.

I do not know much about Arizona, and as neither a Dem, nor a Repub I really don't want to make a judgement based on politically, partisan arguments.
