Whoo Hoo! Problem solved!
Bump!
Police used to just transport them to the state line. Can they do that any more?
I love it. Have Joe set up another tent city where farmers can pay the state a wage for legal labor in their fields. Then the illegal immigrants can actually be useful and help pay for all those that have not been caught.
A simple EXECUTIVE ORDER by Jan Brewer should be all that’s required.
Legally.
And let Obama/Holder sue to stop her.
Then repeat with a new law that’s 1% different. Rinse-Repeat all the way to November.
I just read an article about the millions of dollars that some states will need to spend cleaning Japanese debris from their beaches. Why can’t Arizona contract with Oregon to provide free labor for the clean up process? Problem solved.
Here is something to consider.
Illegal immigrants are not citizens of the united states. An argument can (and has) been made that they are still protected by the Federal Constitution. Since the courts have ruled that illegal immigrant prosecution and deportation is exclusively at the privilege of the fed, then Arizona could detain them as criminals (no legal argument their) but not have the power to prosecute them or allow them habeus corpes.
Logically, they can be detained as criminals but not charged as they are not citizens and the state has no jurisdiction to prosecute but a duty to apprehend them.
If the feds come a knockin, have an equal number of state troopers waiting on them.
What are they gonna do? Arrest police officers that threaten to arrest them?
Hmmmm. We should bill the Feds for that.
AZ should provide a one way bus ticket to all illegals: To Washington DC.
The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.Arizona could declare itself under invasion from Mexico, and file an appeal to the Supremes for a Writ of Mandamus to order the Obama administration to enforce the law.
Since obama has stated his plans not to deport certain groups of illegals, can’t he be sued personally in civil court for the costs that the states inquire because of his refusal to do his job. obama did take an oath of office, and he has now refused to keep his oath and that will cost the states millions, if not billions of dollars.
Arizona needs a nice wall on the border ;-)
So put em to work on building one.
Sheriff Joe could manage the details I’m sure.
Start checking for immigration papers at DUI checkpoints.
Make the same Supreme Court which told you it was okay to stop legal US Citizens and search their vehicles and bloodstream for alcohol why you can’t search illegal non-citizens for their papers.
This case would give them legal indigestion and tie the entire court system in knots for the next thirteen years.
I wonder if Obama won't help Arizona because he's afraid that Fast And Furious guns will eventually be found combing back across the border with an illegal alien. It's just a matter of time.
He doesn't want to step up illegal immigration enforcement because if they find a gun, everything would begin to unravel. He's using immigration as an excuse to look the other way on everything else.
