Could you expect anything else from one of the most liberal states in the country?
States wouldn't have to take actions like this if the feds could effectively prevent the coyotes from shuttling illegals into the country. I can't even begin to understand how there is so much national outrage over this. AZ is taking some of the burden off the feds to protect the legal citizens in this country.
If I were in Italy, talking only in English and looking very "non-European" and an officer asked to see my papers, I wouldn't think twice about. Actually, I'd probably feel safer knowing they are diligent and paying attention to what's going on. I don't belong and it's probably very obvious I don't belong.
These people don't belong here. It's often overwhelmingly obvious that they don't belong here. How many times hearing "yo no se" does it take before people are aloud to ask questions.
We need a group of politicians with balls to pass a bill declaring that the Constitution only covers American citizens and those here with valid VISAs.
