Your Papers, Please!

The demagogic criticism that the Arizona law requires all Hispanics to produce their "papers" is ridiculous.  Of course, the Demagogocrats use the term "Papers" because it conjures visions of nazi Germany.  How clever.

Which looks more like fascism to you?
I also find it rich how this party accuses others of old world fascism while dictating everyone's health care by taking over one-sixth of the economy, appropriating automobile manufacturing firms, and forming a government-corporate mutual-benefit society with Wall Street investment bankers. 


Have any of these hysterical people ever tried to rent an XBox game at Blockbuster?
They demand papers!  Including drivers license and a credit card, which they immediately tag as a warning to you to remember to return the game.  Granted, it lacks the gravity of being stopped by the Gestapo at the Swiss border with fake identity, but this is the state of things in America today.

It starts when you are born
... and your parents submit your hospital birth papers to the county so they can generate your official birth papers called a birth certificate.

You then take that and go get your New World Order card and 666 stamp, also known as a Social Security Card with your unique Social Security Number printed on it.

If you want to travel outside of the country, you've got to use those previously mentioned papers to get "Travel Papers," also known as a passport...

When you get hired you must present a birth certificate or passport so they know who you are, and so Uncle Sam can immediately stick the withholding siphon in.

Johah Goldberg puts it all in perspective: 

I agree that there's something ugly about the police, even local police, asking citizens for their "papers" (there's nothing particularly ugly about asking illegal immigrants for their papers, though).

There's also something ugly about American citizens being physically searched at airports. There's something ugly about IRS agents prying into nearly all of your personal financial transactions or, thanks to the passage of ObamaCare, serving as health insurance enforcers.

Worried about government collecting your personal data?  Ever heard of the IRS or the Social Security Administration?  And by the way, Google and corporate America make the federal government's efforts look amateurish in comparison.

We should send in the National Guard to the entire US-Mexico border. Seal it off to anyone not properly documented to enter this country.

In addition:

- set up ROADBLOCKS to “check papers” all throughout the entire southwest.

- start nationwide search for ALL ILLEGALS. If you are caught here illegally, you are sent to back to your own country or to a federal detention center.

- if you resist and commit a crime. You will go straight to jail.

Do people know that Federal Law says “carry your papers”....

[Army Air Corps]

If that is true, then all countries are racist and imperialistic.

Borders are Lines drawn to Protect people from Racists and Imperialists...

Fixed it for ya.

“When you get hired you must present a birth certificate or passport so they know who you are, ....”

With, it appears, one notable exception.

These people demonstrate their detachment from real life.

If you’ve ever traveled outside the US you know that foreign visitors everywhere are required to carry their passport and ID. You will be required to show it to all kinds of people; cops, government clerks of every kind, hotel clerks, you name it, the first thing they ask for is your ID.

And in most countries citizens are required to carry national ID cards. You don’t leave home without it. Again, they are required to show it frequently and they had better have it on them.

Illegals come from countries where they are required to have their papers on them, and had they picked any country besides the US to visit, they would be required to have their papers on them. And if you visit these people in their home towns after we deport them, you will have to have your papers on you, too.

The folks without papers are not working on Wall Street that is for sure. They have minimum wage jobs at best. So yes if you want a job that pays 50K or more you had best show your papers, but if you want to risk a 15 dollar an hour wage than some employees may not ask for papers.

I think I am going to have a bumper sticker made up that says “If you don’t live in Arizona, then STFU!”. Do you think I could sell them? :)

I would add: have an armed response to anyone attempting to recross into our country illegally.

[Oshkalaboomboom]

The position of Chicano activists is that it is ok to cross the border because they are actually retrieving stolen land. If that is true then they should be happy we stole it because if we didn’t it would be a third-world $hithole like the land they still own. Then where would they try to sneak into for work, Canada?

[HiJinx]

Ping!

Of course, the Demagogocrats use the term "Papers" because it conjures visions of nazi Germany.

That is so typical of this regime.
