Nine lawyers in the Supreme Court, hiding behind legalese, written by other lawyers has decided that American’s, through our various states, have no right to either enforce the sovereignty and security of our borders or demand that the federal government’s lawyers do so.

1) It actually was eight, Kagan recused herself.

2) Scalia wrote a dissent that would have upheld the entire law.

It's a good idea to get all the facts straight before launching into a blog screed.

I used to have a lot of respect for that site, but this is goofy. It negates a lot of positives.

Agreed...

Actually, the supremes got this one 100% correct...

Arizona overreached by trying to enact it’s own immigration laws, which according to the constitution are powers granted to the federal government..

The feds overreached by trying to micromanage local and state law enforcement, which are powers not specifically granted to the feds, reserving them for the states and the people respectively...

This may not be the POPULAR decision, but it is the correct one...
