However, the wonderful people of Arizona don't seem to realize that and have been flooding the police departments (and 911) with calls of "There is a group of Mexicans standing on the corner you need to check it out!"
Now there's an idea...a few hundred calls a day to local police departments claiming there is "a group of illegal aliens on the corner you need to check out" ought to drive the cops nuts.
How about hiring groups of legals who only "look" illegal? They could be paid to mill around on street corners in their leisure time, doing their best to look like illegals...
this... these two... lol... wow... gonna be hard to keep this no personal attacks thing in check since the stupid in some people keep shining. I have to assume its stupidity since I have posted so many sources for them to educate themselves on the law and they still make statements such as the ones above.
I've already done quite the job making this hakr guy look like quite the hack job by posting relevant data contradicting almost every statement he has made, even providing source links to supreme court rulings and to the law itself. As I've already said, you really need to read the law instead of regurgitating what your favorite celebrity/athlete/fake-reporter/blogger/
illegal/talk show host has told you about this bill (hell maybe your dog/cat/parrot/fish told you what this law says since obviously you have no clue). Some of the statements made on here prove the idiocy levels are quite high since some of you seem to have no clue how this bill works.
Hackr and Burton: YOU CANNOT BE ARRESTED FOR STANDING AROUND "LOOKING ILLEGAL"
, I know, its really hard to believe that, but since neither of you have read the law let me re-iterate that for you since you continue to make such idiotic posts...
Burton, please post up any source of information that proves that residents of AZ are calling up the police departments stating what you have posted above, I dare you. Please also post where you live (city, state, etc). To post such a blatant lie is ridiculous.
I live in Phoenix, AZ. I have friends who are sheriffs officers, DPS, Phoenix Police, Mesa Police, Avondale, Glendale, and Goodyear Police and they support the bill as I've said before because lack of follow up by Federal Ice agents has tied their hands. Contrary to your posts none of them state that calls about groups of illegals have magically started raining in.
Contrary to your completely idiotic post police are not being inundated with calls about illegals or Mexicans standing on corners, nor is this what this law is about. What some people fail to remember is that illegals have committed a federal crime. I don't give a crap whether they did it to make a better lives for themselves or not because under that logic why don't you go rob a bank then ask for no punishment because all you wanted to do was make a better life for yourself and your family.
Some people don't realize that Arizona has a really large Canadian illegal presence here as well. Get this, they come here because their country has such a screwed up health care system in order to get decent treatment they come here and pay out of pocket, hmm, we wont even get into that subject to open up
that can of worms.
Once again, read the law before you make such blatantly stupid posts like there should be decoys hired to stand around in groups looking illegal. Unless you are in the process of committing a crime you cannot be questioned. If you have committed a crime and then you are questioned and found to have committed the federal and now state law by being in this country illegally then oh well, you should have come over the legal way.
