I know this wouldn't pacify the idiots who think illegals should be given licenses, health care and a free education but...
Make the inquiry to legal citizenship a secondary offense. If a cop has to deal with you in any way, they can ask to see your papers. What's so difficult about keeping your Visa on you? When I'm outside my house, there are two hours in which my license isn't within arms reach - when I'm at the gym.
From what I understand, the AZ law mirrors the federal law rather closely. With that in mind, the smaller more individual cases can be handled by local police while INS can go after the factories and hotels that hire hundreds of these people.
On an employment aspect, where's the downfall??
-we've had near 10% unemployment with legal Americans *looking* for work but unable to find companies hiring
-many of these illegals are sending their money to Mexico (bad for *our* economy)
-employment taxes are not being paid due to the jobs being under-the-table
Aside from cries about racial profiling and the baseless "this isn't the American Way", I have yet to see a single negative to enforcing (this isn't a brand new concept) immigration laws.
