Top Official Says Feds May Not Process Illegals Referred From Arizona

then tells the feds to do THEIR job

tell MR MORTON to do HIS job

the intent of the arizona law is transparently NOT to harrass immigrants here legally

if a rogue cop goes after legal luis then folks like me (if i may presume) will join you in jumping the bum bailiff
 
obama offers NO POLICY for this real, major problem in our border regions (and beyond)

except cheap, petty, peevish (and self destructive) politics

except to THROW STONES at the PEOPLE OF ARIZONA for doing HIS job for him

it's pathetic
 
the president is paralyzed by philosophy

"immigration" to him translates as CITIZENSHIP

unfortunately, to the rest of us the issue is all about BORDERS

there's this fundamental disconnect

he can't move

(it's just like his budget, which his party is openly proclaiming it will not be producing one this year---he MUST spend, you know, it's his dna, but his party CANNOT put their signatures on a piece of paper that's printed in so much red ink)

it is what it is

pathetic

It depends on the facts and circumstances surrounding the lawful contact that the officer made with the subject.

What you and others are failing to realize is that this isnt something police go about enforcing like speeding. Its not an 'on sight' enforceable law. Its a law that must be enforced through investigation. You receive a call to a residence in reference to a domestic disturbance. You ask the male in the partnership if you can see his ID. He doesnt speak english, doesnt have any ID to include social security card, drivers license, etc. At this point, you may suspect that this individual is in the country illegally. You attempt to obtain his name and information as best you can, more importantly his address. If he has committed a crime of domestic violence, you make an arrest for that crime and take him in for fingerprinting. Once that is done you make a check with Federal Immigration enforcement folks and find out he is not here legally. You can then have him charged with the new law.

What your ilk is failing to realize is that looking at a hispanic person and saying, "He ain't here legally, lets gettem" isnt what this law is about.

Unless of course, you know that, and are being intentionally obtuse to the matter.

What if you receive a call to that residence due to a domestic disturbance, and a white guy answers the door holding a Budweiser and wearing a NASCAR t-shirt? You ask to see his ID, and he can't find it.

Do you haul him in for suspected illegal immigration?

Does he speak English? Does he try to hand you a Mexican ID card?

Its hysterical wathing you liberals fail miserably trying to cast this pretending all illegals are non white or even all Hispanic.
 
Does he speak English?

Suppose he's drunk and you can't understand anything he's saying. But he's a white guy wearing a NASCAR shirt and drinking a Budweiser. Do you haul him in for illegal immigration?

No, and neither do illegal immigrants. Don't be a moron.

You just mentioned *Mexican* ID cards. It's pretty clear who you're talking about, no matter how much you insist otherwise.

Even if he doesn't have his actual papers if he gives his name and DL number the cop can check him out. They all have computers in their cars.
 
Let's see, the FED told Arizona that they may decline to deport illegals that are referred to ICE by the authorities in Arizona. I guess that shows everyone just how much authority the lawmen in Arizona have.

Apparently not near as much as they seem to think they have.

I guess they'll have to deport the illegals themselves. This is going to require a huge increase in taxes for the residents of Arizona. They are not going to be happy about that.

If AZ thinks that they are going to tell ICE how to do their job, they are sadly mistaken. I feel sorry for AZ. Walking across the desert to find American jobs has always been the mark of the extreme poor from Mexico. Those with family backing pay their way across the border and ride over in air conditioned cars that cross in TX and CA. Why don't we hear about illegals crossing in New Mexico (just curious)?

ICE is simply telling AZ to bug off. You're on your own. Secede and you'll be part of Mexico in a few years.

AZ, it's your move.

And you agree with the Fed not deporting illegal criminals?
 
No, and neither do illegal immigrants. Don't be a moron.

No, never.
Ms. Colotl was pulled over March 29 by a campus officer at Kennesaw State University in suburban Atlanta, where she is two semesters from graduation, for “impeding the flow of traffic.” After she presented the officer an expired Mexican passport instead of a valid driver’s license, she was arrested and taken to a county jail, where she acknowledged being an illegal immigrant.

Well, maybe sometimes. :doh
 

Cheney is responsible for this oil spill even though he was only carrying out bush's agenda.

Now, if you want to ex post facto blame Obama that's to be expected.

The FED does deport illegals. I agree with them not taking illegals off the hands of Arizona's bigoted laws.

Besides the obvious instances, reasonable suspicion is still at the discretion of the LEO, hence the key word suspicion. If I, a hispanic, am walking with my white friend and neither of us has our id, which one of us has a greater chance of being detained further in Arizona. What if me and my family pack in my Cavalier to go to Wal-Mart? A car full of hispanics?? Reasonable suspicion right there. I can already hear the hateful posts of many conservatives on this thread, but Ill ask it anyway. What does an illegal immigrant look like?

Neither one of you. According to the law, you have to be stopped for something else before a law enforcement officer can inquire into your immigration status...
 
How are Arizona's laws bigoted? Can you point to where in HB1070 it is bigoted?


Here is HB 1070, it's only 17 pages so it should be easy for you to point out any racial discrimination, bigotry or racial profiling.

http://www.azleg.gov/legtext/49leg/2r/bills/sb1070s.pdf

Well, that didn't take long. They stuck it right on the first page:

20 B. FOR ANY LAWFUL CONTACT MADE BY A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIAL OR AGENCY
21 OF THIS STATE OR A COUNTY, CITY, TOWN OR OTHER POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OF THIS
22 STATE WHERE REASONABLE SUSPICION EXISTS THAT THE PERSON IS AN ALIEN WHO IS
23 UNLAWFULLY PRESENT IN THE UNITED STATES, A REASONABLE ATTEMPT SHALL BE MADE,
24 WHEN PRACTICABLE, TO DETERMINE THE IMMIGRATION STATUS OF THE PERSON. THE
25 PERSON'S IMMIGRATION STATUS SHALL BE VERIFIED WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
26 PURSUANT TO 8 UNITED STATES CODE SECTION 1373(c).

Lines 22 through 24.

Perhaps you should change your user name from "Mickey Shane" to "German porn star's mouth" seeing how you are full of crap.

No.

Just like you didnt haul the other guy in for that reason.

Did you read the post you responded to at all?

Can you tell me what is bigoted on there?

Anything?

Is it your refusal to understand that reasonable suspicion is a legal standard that Police agencies have been using in the United States for decades?

Obama's inspectors gave this rig high safety marks and Cheney is to blame?

Nice try but Cheney had nothing to do with this neither did Bush.

Mark my words. Cheney's back room oil deals will be brought up in this investigation. Why do you think that cheney is keeping his big mouth shut now?
