Arizona governor signs immigration bill

If the Federal Government were doing it's job and protecting our borders AZ wouldn't have to do anything and the borders would be secure.

I don't have a problem if I am stopped. I happen to have dark skin. (Native American on my Father's side). Big F-ing deal! The illegal aliens should be sent back across the border and come in the proper way.

A lot of times, people think I'm Hispanic because of my darker olive tone. I guess I get it from my mom's southern Greek side of the family and my dad is Italian, so I guess that explains my skin tone. I agree with keeping the "illegal aliens" on their side of the border unless they're gonna come over the proper way, but I am totally against stopping someone because they "LOOK" a certain way. That's SO wrong. Oh, and I would have a major problem if I was stopped, because of the way I "look".

Were you there when I had my first job at 16? I don't even have anything to say to this insanely stupid comment. You can't fight ignorance and bigotry when it's in-breed.

You obviously didn't get my historical reference. Maybe they should go house to house and get rid of all of the ignorant bigots in this country.

Oh, and bye-bye. You'll be banned soon.

Which is just one of the many reasons we should all ignore him instead of giving him the attention he so desperately craves.

I believe you hit the spot with this one. Out of all the southern states, Arizona has the most severe problems with illegal immigration and crimes associated with it. I'm not saying that there isn't going to be problems enforcing it, but I believe that this bill was passed because lawmakers felt that they had to take matters into their own hand as opposed to waiting for the Federal Gov to do something about it.

I'm not sure where everyone in this thread is from but there are already parts of the country that do random stops. Usually it is in close proximity to the border. If I'm driving around in the valley I know there is a good chance I'm getting stopped at a border patrol checkpoint.

A lot of cities have identified themselves as "sanctuary" cities where police and non immigration related Gov agencies are prohibited from asking an individual any questions about citizenship or immigration status. With this law being passed it allows local police to run immigration checks on anyone who gives probable cause.

I think we should sit back and see how this ends up being enforced. I don't believe that cops are going to start pulling over hispanics just to see if they are here illegally, I think they will do immigration checks in conjunction with criminal history checks when they already have a subject for DWI or assault or whatever infraction/misdemeanor.
