Just what part of ILLEGAL does this arse not understand? If he wants the ILLEGAL ALIENS here, he can pay for them out of his own pocket. Better yet he can feel free to take them all back to wherever they came from until they decide to enter and become a LEGAL citizen! Why is it when someone that is a minority breaks the law and we call them out on it, we are considered racist?

If I was president, I would make I-95 one-way, all four lanes headed north! That way we could get rid of all the carpet bagging turdheads from the northeast that want to come down south and complain about everything. You arse clowns keep giving the country such jewels as: Schumer, Hilary, Bloomerberg, etc. What a bunch of tools. You all swallow!

We have to inforce the present immigration laws that are on the books for the following reasons.
1. By inforcing the hiring of illegal immigrants by fining and jailing the people that hire them will stop the illegal immigration that is going on because there will be no jobs for them. (Most are being exploited and are nothing but "slave" labor".)
2. The unemployment rate will fall as more people loosing their unemployment benefits will take the jobs formally taken by illegal immigrants. Also jobs will open up for the bottom sector of our labor force.
3. The money will stay in the country. Most illegal immigrants wire a good portion of their pay check back to their families, thus the money does not recirculate in our economy, which is slowing up the growth of our economy.
4. Housing prices at the lower level of the market will come down as more and more illegals go back home, making housing more affordable.
All are good reasons for lowering the illegal population. Lets leave America for the Americans.

I agree with Mayor Bloomberg. Proponents of Arizona's law aren't the sharpest knives in the drawer (they're unable to see how irresponsibly inconsistent their position is.) Indeed it is the backer's of Arizona's law who spit on our constitutional rights, and would deny due process. The irony, of course, is that there are many provisions in current (federal) immigration law these hypocrites haven't the least respect for, so why are they so "selectively scrupulous all of a sudden? The one word answer:
Racism.
That's what motivates proponents of Arizona's reprehensible mockery of democratic principles.

Why do you brain-dead individuals argue that it should be illegal to enforce legal laws against people who in the US illegally? Why don't you complain about the sanctuary cities that refuse to enforce federal laws against illegal aliens even if these people break criminal laws? Why don't we just adopt the Mexican laws in which anyone at any time can be forced to submit proof that they are in Mexico legally and if they can't, they either are put in prison or deported?

"not politically wise". Why is that Steve ?
Groups up protesting the law. obama claiming being RIGHT on law being wrong. Stop the growing laws emulating the new law.
This law is RACIST. He drags his feet on RACIST matters. Steve you think so LITTLE of obama moral fortitude ? As the GREAT ONE he should lead by example. His other worthy projects will sustain the Democrats in November to get their richly deserved recognition.

It is the right thing to do, but admittedly a federal suit against Arizona is not politically wise before the November elections.
