[I still care]

If I was thinking of moving, I’d seriously think Arizona.

[pallis]

I strongly doubt that there is an exodus of legal residents. More likely, this is evidence of higher numbers of illegals than thought or admitted.

[CORedneck]

Now we need the other states to pass the same law !

[Man50D]

Illegals will leave the country instead of moving from one state to another if several more states pass similar legislation.

I don't have any idea why Hispanics would flee the law in Arizona. What is the CSM saying about Hispanics???? I think of them as fine upstanding citizens, but perhaps the CSM disagrees?

Now, I fully understand why illegal aliens would flee the law in Arizona. That seems like the intended outcome. Well done Arizona!

[Nervous Tick]

>> Hispanics, both legal residents and illegal immigrants, are starting to flee.

EXCELLENT!

Go to mejico.

Or Kalifornia.

Don’t come to Texas! We don’t want or need any more of you.

[elpadre]

it seems Arizona is providing a good model for cheap immigration reform and maybe even balancing the state budget.

other states interested??

[Free Vulcan]

Awesome! No reconquista for the imperialist conquistadors!

[jiggyboy]

anecdotal evidence suggests Hispanics, both legal residents and illegal immigrants, are starting to flee.

Let's not be fooled here. The "legal residents" are a little jumpy because they're living with "illegal" relatives. Anchor babies are just one variety.

Only the Hispanic illegals? What about all the other illegals?

[I still care]

It’s going to be interesting in a few years to see what happens to Arizona’s economy.

Will hospitals start to operate in the red? Or will there be a slump, as the libs claim - because “undocumented workers contribute so much”.

When the other 56 states pass the AZ law, PROBLEM SOLVED.

[Random Access]

Although concrete figures are not available, anecdotal evidence suggests...

Nothing like cold hard evidence to back up your hypothesis. I think this writer has a future with in the global warming community.

[proud American in Canada]

Great news!

I hope other states follow AZ’s example.

[Maelstorm]

We either stop illegal immigration or we lose America as we know it. If you want more voters in favorite of big government then just turn a blind eye.

[Niuhuru]

I don’t doubt they will.

When Singapore started cracking down on drug dealers in the 1960’s, the bong shops suffered as a consequence.

[Psycho_Bunny]

“anecdotal evidence suggests”

lol

[A_Former_Democrat]

Awesome news!

Just don’t come to Texas
