Arizona's Immigration Bill

[Crazedclerkthe2nd]

And, Hobbs, what is that clipping from? If you're going to arbitrarily pull excerpts from somewhere, show us where you got it, or it doesn't give any credibility.

So, Hobbs, are you for or against any kind of control on illegal immigration?

Judging by the phrasing I think it probably is taken from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Wow, it's amazing how many people don't know their US law.

It's the US Code...y'know, the LAW

Which version of the US Code?

And you may want to stop being so much of a smart alec. You were just being asked a question.

[Boozy]

Once again, knock it off with the sarcasm and the subtle name-calling.

This is the final warning. One more snide comment and the thread will be closed.

The Human Rights violations are not in the desires to deport illegal immigrants. The Human Rights violations are in the illegal acts of unlawful detainment when a citizen or legal resident can't prove their status immediately upon demand.

exactly. also, unless things have changed since is was in mexico last year, driving or walking across the border on a day trip doesn't require a visa. thousands of mexican citizens come over every day on such trips. are they to be forceably detained and deported for not being u.s. citizens if they get stopped while on such a trip?

Well, when I read a comment that says its the UDHR, it makes me think that the person commenting didn't read it. Otherwise they'd see the part that says, "laws of the United States..." which makes me feel disrespected. I mean, argue with me, but if you're going to, please read my comment in the entirety. Also, had you looked up my citation; "TITLE 18 > PART I > CHAPTER 13 > § 242. Deprivation of rights under color of law." you would have realized that I was quoting United States law.

Linguist you're exactly right. The law could adversly affect the legal movement of Mexican nationals across the border.

Like I said, this is a really bad reaction to a real problem. Which makes it worse, because people will be even more reluctant to change or remove it, for fear that nothing will be put in its place. The solution is a BETTER LAW, not entrench themselves around only one solution.
