Looks like my home state isn't perfect after all. Arizona will most likely be the first state in the Union to criminalize the presence of being an illegal alien. What does this mean? Basically that local police now are being given federal power. If a police chooses to he could arrest an illegal alien on the spot for just being present, whereas usually an illegal alien didn't get caught unless he/she committed a crime and then was handed over to the Dept. of Homeland Security, beginning the process for deportation.
What do I think? This is yuky law that has racial profiling ALL OVER IT!
Man, I wonder how my GrandFather would have felt? This new law affects those who are looking for a better life? Is this really the answer? Sorry, I have more questions then opinions. It just makes me wonder where this road will end? What is the goal they are trying to achieve? Lots of questions....
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I think it might get worse before it gets better. We need to make people aware that these are people trying to better the lives for their families and not criminals as this law would have them be.
