again, speculation. you're assuming you know the intent of the law makers. just because it impacts one group of people disproportionately, doesn't mean that was the intent of the law.

it's arizona. a state with one of the highest hispanic populations in the country. a state that borders a hispanic country. of course, it will impact the hispanic community more. that doesn't mean it was intended to impact the hispanic community more.

that last statement was regarding changing the current immigration system.

both of those points are irrelevant. 83 percent of illegal aliens are hispanic. the hispanic population has the highest percentage of illegal aliens. most people who are suspected of being illegal will be hispanic.

duh.

Cool, let's make a law targeting Hispanics!

Oh yeah..Arizona is doing that.

Don't get me wrong...I am all for legislation that would make it difficult for people that are considered illegal to be in this country, however, as it stands, Arizona's laws and everything else that has gone down there in the past year is just wrong on so many levels and I think now we are finding out exactly what kind of people we are working with that runs their government.

All you're doing is saying "Nuh uh" and "Not necessarily" and "you don't know that for sure."

So what are they doing?
