When you cut through the bullshit, it's plain to see that a whole bunch of people are very uncomfortable that the people who live in the same space as they don't look nor sound like them, don't share the same culture and for that matter, the same language...they go to their stores and places of business and they see less and less of themselves and it makes them angry and fearful and now they want to reclaim 'what's theirs.'
But, how do you reclaim something, how do you legalize something without looking like a complete racist asshole?
Make some laws that are vague enough(we are just going after the illegals) yet obvious enough (those illegals are hispanic BTW) to get the job done.
Starang...nobody is foolish enough to think that just because that law doesn't say it, that the lawmakers weren't thinking it.
They just realized that what worked in the 1700's and 1800's doesn't work in the 2000's.

and this entire argument was called speculative at best by a federal judge. you can infer all you want, but the court is where debates end. and how much of your inference is based on your own personal prejudice?
