Boycott Arizona???........Nah.

I agree 100%, but there is one story out of the entire Arizona uproar that really gets under my skin, and that is the school from IL. that told their girls basketball team that they can't go play in a tournament in Arizona because the new law "wouldn't be aligned" with the school's "beliefs and values." That throws up a red flag that this school is more concerned with indoctrinating their students than providing them with the opportunities a school should be promoting. Then the hypocrisy of the administrators of this school really shows when they back tracked and said they are concerned for the safety of the students... REALLY? This same school had no problem sending students to communist China, South America, and the Czech Republic, but Arizona is too dangerous since this immigration law was put into place? If Arizona is too dangerous of a place, then it would just go to show that some serious action is needed to correct the immigration problem. These school administrators need to be told to go home until they learn to actually look out for the children and their best interests instead of making a public outcry in favor of their own liberal political beliefs... This is another prime example of the hypocrisy of liberals. I wrote about this hypocrisy in my last blog on my website www.YouAreALiberal.com if anyone is interested in reading it. Just look under Jay's Blogs. Also check out our PodCasts and "Liberal of the Week" for some more good info on the Arizona Immigration law.

I agree with this... However, what happens when terrorist become WASPs? Imagine a group of blue eyed, blond, well-dressed gentlemen. You wouldn't question them next to the mexican beside them or the arab or whatever... Unfortunately this is just a small bandaid that won't deal with the terrorist problem in the long run. It will deal with a lot of poor immigrants here, but not heavy duty terrorism. Terrorist are getttng smarter and smarter unfortunately and are "using" quite often people that don't look suspicious... Anyway... just a few unorganized thoughts. Plus, not to talk about the huge financial effects barring all illegals will have on the US. Unfortunately the US is still a country that heavily relies on cheap-labor illegals for its day-to-day dirty jobs that support the ecosystem. Few Americans I know would want to mow the lawns ALL day-long for a few bucks (much less than minimum wages)... I read an article on this in BusinessWeek recently - it was quite interesting. I suggest looking it up if you can...

If it was closer I would make a point to spend some money there. Arizona is just doing what the Feds should be doing.

+1 I'm far from a Political person I don't even vote most of the time.I think more states should have stricter illegal immigrant laws I'm sick of seeing 90% of things being in English and Spanish, we shouldn't be catering to people who refuse to learn our language or follow our laws. Plain and simple. /rant off

I think you may be on to something here. I don't care much for the "profiling" aspect of this, but Arizona is the epicenter of an invasion. You know, there is the Second Amendment, perhaps the good people of Arizona should consider forming a few "well-regulated militias" and dealing with the armed invaders crossing their borders? On the other hand, perhaps the country as a whole could come up with some more creative ways of dealing with migratory workers, making it easier for seasonal workers to enter (and subsequently depart on schedule) and do the jobs they do so well. The other thing that would be a sea-change would be to take the money out of the drug trade, easily done by permitting those of legal age to make legal purchases, after all, it put Al Capone out of business. But, too many of us have swallowed too much dogma to allow that, plus, too many budgets would be cut. Crazy talk, huh?

A fence....even a wall. Perched gunman every 300 yards with high powered "toys". One warning from a megaphone...followed by a much bigger noise if instructions not followed. Stops crime, lowers built in medical costs, saves some jobs (and even creates some)...I dont see the problem here.

No Kuzi...not too much in jest at all. No illegal crossing, no need to worry about the man (or woman) with the gun. I know...too right wing but-job of an approach, but obviously I like to be on the poles about political issues. We use the death penalty far too sparingly already.

In those last two posts of yours, you won me over!! Youre lettin that good ol boy, southern thinkin side out. All you need now is a can of Copenhagen, couple animals on the wall, jacked up truck with country blaring, and a couple guns in the gun rack and you will be good to go (and yes I fit that profile perfectly)! I like it bro, I like it a lot!

They could use taser guns... Or those ones that inject a tracker so we can find out where they get jobs/ drug hotspots/ where the get others to cross. I really like the wall idea though...

I see where the city of LA opened their stupid pie hole and started talking boycotting Arizona stuff but forgot they get 25% of their electricity from there. DOH! take your stinking foot out of your mouth now because the Az Governor says she will cut your power off if you try it. This is fun!
