We know that the U.N. is a thoroughly corrupt and dysfunctional organization run by Third World thugocracies and despotic regimes that put nations like Libya on its human-rights commission. It's a joke. But it's NOT a joke when it interferes in the democratic process of a sovereign and democratic republic like the United States. Enough is enough! How long will American taxpayers continue to house and support this collection of phonies and frauds who never fail to kick us in face no matter what we do? Of course, since Obama's goal is to turn America into a Third World state, he'll probably make this his next apology for America before the world.

Better yet send some blue helmet peace keepers to make sure we don’t violate them...my trigger finger needs some exercise.

The first thing Americans need to do when we take America back, is load all of these commie U.N. bass turds into airliners with just enough fuel to get them out over the middle of the Atlantic. The world would definitely be a better place.

How can they object to the AZ law without objecting to the federal law?

They won’t tell you, but the reason is that the federal law isn’t enforced.

So, they’re objecting to the law being enforced.

They can KMA and start following the law and paying their way.

“How can they object to the AZ law without objecting to the federal law?”

Easy - the feds are not enforcing it!!

I would gladly vote for anyone for president that would promise to get us out of the UN and the UN out of the US.

Maybe a few enterprising conservatives can see if the UN would put their money where their mouth is and allow us to get into the UN building without a security clearance.

Great point. Those hypocritical, scheming (transparent) Sob’s have to go - where is real American leadership to tell these clowns to shut the h*ll up? Obama the complete commie clown naturally issued his statement of support in advance.

Aw Screw You, United Nations.

Arizona is Open Carry. If you know what that means.

Say, why dont you send one of your research teams to Phoenix to investigate? I hear it is great this time of the year.

Has there ever been a large scale protest targeting the UN? I can’t think of one.

What a joke. The UN says nothing about Mexico’s very real and very harsh illegal immigration laws, not to mention China and a lot of other countries. But, without reading the law, they criticize Arizona for asking those stopped for other reasons, who can’t produce ID, where they come from.

When some of those blue helmet parasites were sexually molesting minors in underdeveloped countries someone definitely should have pulled the trigger!

Whatever criticims are valid against Arizona's new law regarding illegal immigration are at least equally valid against the laws of other US States—such as California. And are equally against US Federal law—on which the Arizona law is modeled. And even more valid against the immigration laws of most the countries ine world—including that of Mexico, which is much stricter than US law.
