A federal judge has upheld part of Arizonas contentious immigration law, rejecting claims that the so-called show your papers section discriminated against Hispanics.
The ruling by U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton on Friday was on the last of seven challenges to the 2010 law. The section she upheld allows police in Arizona to check the immigration status of anyone they stop.
Bolton ruled that immigration rights activists failed to show that police would enforce the law differently for Hispanics than other people.

I'm afraid she's going to start receiving death threats from the illegal alien invaders out there hiding "in the shadows".
Of course, they don't ask to see your papers in Mexico. No way! Uh uh! That would be "rasis". sarc/

Actually, in Mexico the do, and in some places you need to grease the cop’s palm in order for him to remove his “pistola” from your face! If we mirrored Mexico’s immigration laws, the illegal beaners would all be going home immediately!

Bolton’s feeling the heat.
Time to keep the head down, clean up the act before making some more outrageous rulings.

How long did the law languish in the courts before this ruling? How long does it take for a judge to research an issue, decide on it, and then write an opinion?
