Ariz. governor signs immigration enforcement bill

Can't.

The law doesn't permit random sampling of the population based on "looks like an Invader". It requires that the police stop people for suspicion of some other offense and then requires the officer to check residency status, if he suspects this additional crime to have been committed.

Since, however, the USSC has stated that blanket random road "checkpoints" for DUI and seatbelt usage do not violate the FOURTH Amendment, then it goes to follow that random routine road checkpoints for violation of other state laws cannot be a violation of that same Amendment.

BTW, you could try reading your constitution someday. I mean, if you're going to argue some law or other violates an amendment, shouldn't you at least pick a number of an Amendment that might pertain to what it is you're wishing it violated, but doesn't?



"Lawful contact", in essence, the suspect has to be suspected, with reasonable suspicion, of committing some other offense.

Suddenly you people have a problem with the police apprehending criminals? Its that why you keep sending the same criminals to Washington every year, and not, as I once suspected, you desired to get them out of your own neighborhoods?

Way to talk around the Q on this. Here is the question that exposes this law for what it is:

What is going to constitute reasonable suspicion that a police officer knows what someone is or is not carrying in his wallet.

Answer that one, my friend, and you have just become Karnak the Magnificent. On the other hand, if you are a mere mortal, like the rest of us, the only answer that you can give is "Because he looks brown". This includes not only illegal aliens, but Hispanics who were born right here in the good ole' USA. That constitutes racial profiling. If you say I am full of crap here, then answer this second question:

How many white people are going to be stopped and thrown in jail for not carrying papers?

The answer for anyone whose IQ is higher than that of an artichoke is "NONE". Therefore, the law is racist.

One other question:

How has Arizona dealt with illegal aliens in the past?

By turning them over to Immigration, who deported them. But the new law says that they have to be put into places, for a length of time, and taken care of before being deported. Who pays for that? Arizona's taxpayers, of course. So not only are Arizona's lawmakers complete idiots for passing a bill that will be struck down by SCOTUS as racist, but they are also complete idiots for passing a bill that can only be enforced by raising taxes. In short - Arizona's lawmakers are complete idiots.

How many whites sneak in from Mexico illegal to work. Answer: Zero.....profiling is a good thing. Check all the bastards, most down there probably are illegal or know someone who is. It's high time these illegals get an asskicking.

Why is racial profiling racist?
 
Fourth Amendment.

Not Fourteenth.

No, I meant the 14th amendment. Mainly Section 1. You really are a class act, aren't ya? I already said I would support the law as long as the Constitutional rights of Hispanic citizens are protected and yet you are still trying to fight me. Why?

OK, I see your point. So, since you are white, I would then have reasonable suspicion to assume that you are a member of the KKK?
 
Yawn.

We heard the same thing back in the 90s and then it was Hispanics would be the majority in the southwest by 2010.

Please don't play race wars.

Stop lying tex. There was not any demographic source that made such an argument. Why do you have to rely so heavily on misinformation? Don't you feel the least bit guilty that you have to make things up? How does your God feel about liars?
 
OK, I see your point. So, since you are white, I would then have reasonable suspicion to assume that you are a member of the KKK?
Is there a law involved here? Are we having problems with the KKK?
 
OK, I see your point. So, since you are white, I would then have reasonable suspicion to assume that you are a member of the KKK?

First of all, I am not proposing using racial profiling to establish reasonable suspicion to assume illegality. I am simply targeting the correct population to check, without assumptions or suspicions.

Secondly, you can use racial profiling to check if I am in the KKK, although I do not see how you would be able to verify this.

Lastly, it is not illegal to be in the KKK.
 
Stop lying tex.

I'm not lying and you have no evidence that I am.

Just another troll attack by you without evidence.

Not that its a new thing for you.

There was not any demographic source that made such an argument.

I never once said I heard it from someone quoting demographics. It was an Hispanic college professor.

Why do you have to rely so heavily on misinformation? Don't you feel the least bit guilty that you have to make things up? How does your God feel about liars?

I'm sorry if I'm not willing to play the KKK race game you're wanting to engage in but thanks for making your racist thoughts out there for all to see.
 
I will be back in AZ in a few weeks, gonna see if the nearby Lowes and Home Depot still have the day loborers standing around. If they are still there, then this law is not being effective...

The law I believe also made it illegal to hire day labour of any kind, not just illegal immigrants
 
So can I or can I not be taken down to the station in handcuffs if I drive through the state of Arizona without my birth certificate?
 
I'll ask it again, because I like questioning the conventional wisdom...

Why is racial profiling racism?

Way to talk around the Q on this. Here is the question that exposes this law for what it is:

What is going to constitute reasonable suspicion that a police officer knows what someone is or is not carrying in his wallet.

The answer is that he can't stop them and ask them until he's already stopped them for suspicion of some other crime.

When a cop stops someone with probable cause, what's their first question?

Oh, yeah, their first question is "let's see some ID".

So, it seems that actually ASKING a suspect for his ID CAN'T POSSIBLY be a violation of any Constitutional standard, since it's SOP in the first damn place.

The only thing the law really does is it allows the cop specific authority to dig deeper and to hold the suspect if he can't ID himself.

What a threat to our republic asking a shoplifter for his ID is, or asking a driver for his license. HORRORS!


Answer that one, my friend, and you have just become Karnak the Magnificent.

Then again, I'm already magnificent.

I also already answered it.

It's not hard.

On the other hand, if you are a mere mortal, like the rest of us, the only answer that you can give is "Because he looks brown".

Uh, no. Not being a racist, I'm perfectly aware of the fact that some Invaders are white, black, and asian.

This includes not only illegal aliens, but Hispanics who were born right here in the good ole' USA. That constitutes racial profiling. If you say I am full of crap here, then answer this second question:

No, I never say people are full of crap. I say they're full of ****.

And yes, some hispanic looking people who give the cops probable cause to believe they've committed some other crime (like throwing bottles at the cops) are going to be asked to present ID.

Oooooooo. That's so scawy.

How many white people are going to be stopped and thrown in jail for not carrying papers?

Any the cops have reasonable suspicion have committed some other crime and who also present a reasonable suspicion that they're not US citizens. I'm betting their failure to produce a valid US state driver's license will prompt even the dumbest cop to wonder if he could also arrest the guy as a suspected invader.

Are you so racist you want to believe that there are no white Invaders?

Seriously?

That's pretty ignorant of you, isn't it?

The answer for anyone whose IQ is higher than that of an artichoke is "NONE". Therefore, the law is racist.

All artichokes have an IQ of 100, since artichoke IQ would have to be measured against the standard population of artichokes. That makes them smarter than people who voted for the Messiah.

How has Arizona dealt with illegal aliens in the past?

Not well enough, since their hands have been tied by a malevolent federal government.

Since the Illegal Alien is a criminal, it's no crime to arrest him, jail him, and deport him. Nor is it a crime to arrest, jail, and fine US citizens providing aid and comfort to the enemy.

By turning them over to Immigration, who deported them.

Amaaaaazing! Cops doing their job. How awful!

But the new law says that they have to be put into places, for a length of time, and taken care of before being deported.

Oh.

I see.

What you're saying is that before this law, suspected Invaders were put nowhere, fed nothing, and not taken care of. Those poor things. At least now they'll be fed while they're awaiting the Great Boot.

Who pays for that? Arizona's taxpayers, of course.

Pretty much just like before, since the Feds have been notably lax in dealing with the Invasion Crisis. Arizona taxpayers are paying to house, feed, educate, provide emergency services for, and jail their current complement of the Invading Horde already. Getting them off the streets, into the jails where they belong, will merely shift expenses from one budget entry to another, and there's certain sheriffs in Arizona who feed their prisoners the least expensive menus they legally can.

What a pity, a sheriff that doens't coddle criminals.

Frankly, the party that supported the Messiah trillion dollar spending spree doesn't have a shred of credibility when using a fiscal restraint argument against enforcing the damn law. It's obvious they're just upset because someone in the United States is taking action against the Invasion that's going to bankrupt us.

Arizona should, of course, sue the federal government for all expenses related to jailing and otherwise taking care of it's Invader population.

So not only are Arizona's lawmakers complete idiots for passing a bill that will be struck down by SCOTUS as racist,

No, if the courts strike it down, it will because they're antii-American. I've already shown that the Constitution is not violated by this law.

but they are also complete idiots for passing a bill that can only be enforced by raising taxes.

Say what?

Do tell.

Explain Messiah Care and it's supporters in more detail, okay?
 
I'll ask it again, because I like questioning the conventional wisdom...

Why is racial profiling racism?

Because you would be targeting a specific ethnic group for "special" treatment rather then for what the individual has done
 
Because you would be targeting a specific ethnic group for "special" treatment rather then for what the individual has done

Precisely.

If it was illegal to be black, that law would be wrong.

Since the law under discussion doesn't say it's illegal to be hispanic, but merely makes it illegal to be in the State of Arizona if you're in the United States illegally, it's not racial profiling.

That 90% of the Invaders are from hispanic nations does not make the law an unconstitutional racist law. It's merely dealing with facts, and it specifically does not allow racial profiling.
 
How many whites sneak in from Mexico illegal to work. Answer: Zero.....profiling is a good thing. Check all the bastards, most down there probably are illegal or know someone who is. It's high time these illegals get an asskicking.

But there are white Europeans who enter the country on temporary tourist/student visas who "forget" to leave when they're time's up. To claim it's "racial profiling" to target illegal aliens is ignorant and elitist and racist itself.

Lots and lots of eurotrash can be swept up with this law.
 
The answer is that he can't stop them and ask them until he's already stopped them for suspicion of some other crime.
Did not the police have this ability before this law?

Again didnt the police have this ability to find out the identity of someone the had reasonable believe of having committed a crime. Why make a new law that is redundant?

Why on earth would Arizona make a law requiring people to produce ID when they have been suspected of commiting a legal offense (ie speeding, shoplifting) when people have to produce ID or at the very least prove who they are in such circumstances.

In such a case the law is redundant. Meaning it will not do very much at all, now will it? Which logically would mean the intent of the law is something else unless the Arizona politicos are a bunch of morons who dont know this part of the law is redundant as it just replicates what was in the law previously
 
The law I believe also made it illegal to hire day labour of any kind, not just illegal immigrants

Well, read the text of the law and let us know.

That clearly is a violation of civil liberties, since any American should be able to hire any other American or lawful resident for temporary work. But there's nothing with requiring that such laborers provide proof of legal residence.
 
Did not the police have this ability before this law?
Again didnt the police have this ability to find out the identity of someone the had reasonable believe of having committed a crime. Why make a new law that is redundant?

Oh.

So you agree that asking suspect for ID isn't unconstitutional.

So what's your problem with this new law again?
 
Is that racist?

Yes yes it is

It is as racist as the KKK putting burning cross's on black families lawns (just because they were black

Or as racist as a Japanese family not wanting thier daughter to marry a European because they are not Japanese
 
Because you would be targeting a specific ethnic group for "special" treatment rather then for what the individual has done
Wrong, they've come here illegally. That's what they've done.
