McCain's reversal on immigration shocks many in the Latino community
Latina Lista ^ | 4/20/10 | Marisa Trevino

On this 15th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing when we all should be remembering that hatred has no place in a civilized society, we are confronted with the reality that hatred exists to an even greater degree than 15 years ago, takes all forms and in several instances has resorted to once again, in our country's history, to masquerade as law. The entire nation is waiting to see what happens in Arizona in the next five days. That's how long the governor has to decide what to do with Senate Bill 1070. It's a bill that would make it a state crime to be in the country illegally and require local police to enforce federal immigration laws.

If the bill is signed, it would make Arizona the first state to criminalize undocumented immigrants. Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer has five days to sign it, veto it or do nothing and allow it to become law.

Needless to say, advocates and sympathizers are staging protests, building websites and even asking President Obama to intervene before such a bill can pass into law.

There is a real fear that if this bill passes it doesn't just emboldened bad cops to abuse their authority but will empower the regular Arizonan, who thinks he doesn't like Latino immigrants, to police his community so as to turn in anyone he thinks is undocumented.
