The only flaw in Arizona's new immigration law is that it was enacted some 460,000 illegal immigrants too late. Had the federal government effectively done its job to protect America's borders from foreign invasion, it would not have taken Senate Bill 1070 to remind this administration, and those with a sanctuary city mentality, what the definition of illegal is. SB1070 requires authorities to ask for identification or proof of immigration status if they suspect that someone, of any race, is in the country illegally. There must be reasonable suspicion involved, not based on skin color, but on the actions of the individual. The law reiterates much of existing federal illegal immigration law, and most of the police in Arizona intend to back up it up with action. The position that this bill is about racial profiling and not the enforcement of illegal immigration laws is patently false. Police routinely ask any person engaging in unlawful or suspicious behavior for identification and, with few exceptions, police in every city in the U.S are committed to protecting and serving their communities. To assume that racism is the motivation of the police in Arizona is not only disingenuous, it's ignorant. Playing the race card is just another left-wing incendiary attempt to prevent Arizona from exercising its legal right to enforce the law. Current headlines fraudulently expound that this law will allow authorities to demand, like Nazis, the papers of any person who has brown skin even if they are just mowing their lawn or taking the kids out for ice cream. Liberal lemmings need to stop responding with uniformed reflexes of emotion and read the law. The law clearly states, "A law enforcement official or agency of this state or a county, city, town or other political subdivision of this state may not solely consider race, color or national origin in implementing the requirements of this subsection except to the extent permitted by the United States or Arizona constitution." And it continues, "This section shall be implemented in a manner consistent with federal laws regulating immigration, protecting the civil rights of all persons and respecting the privileges and immunities of United States citizens." Race baiting is the typical fuel of choice for liberal protest groups. With some exceptions, they are more interested in maintaining a Democratic voting bloc than alleviating the slave labor conditions of illegal immigrants or the legitimate economic and safety concerns of Americans. If President Obama had a constitutional backbone, he would enforce immigration laws and stop pandering to Hispanic voters. If you recall his 2008 stump speech to La Raza supporters, you can understand his hesitation. He said, "Make no mistake about it '" the Latino community holds this election in your hands. ... I know how powerful this community is. Together, we won't just win an election; we will transform this nation." Obama is definitely living up to is his promise to transform this nation, so much so that he has woken up the often silent majority of citizens who are now on guard to protect the freedom of Americans from an over-reaching federal government. Protesters are boycotting all things Arizona and decrying the validity of "reasonable suspicion" and the integrity of law enforcement officials. At the same time, they are demanding from Americans unreasonable tolerance towards illegal immigrants. This new Arizona law is not a racist anti-immigrant law; it is not about a lack of empathy for the plight of Mexicans seeking a better life. This law is an anti-illegal immigrant law that simply seeks to enforce federal law to protect Americans. The Federation for American Immigrant Reform defines the current situation aptly. President Dan Stein said: "Faced with mounting costs, lost jobs and violent crime resulting from mass illegal immigration, Gov. Brewer has acted responsibly to protect Arizonians. In signing SB1070, Gov. Brewer has responded to the will of the people and risen above the incendiary rhetoric of those who are maliciously attempting to divide Arizonians along ethnic lines." Seven other states are now considering legislation similar to Arizona's. Perhaps this wake-up call will increase the enforcement of immigration laws. Only then can we put the welfare of Americans before the appeasement of those who do not have enough respect for America to enter the country legally.
