Start spreading the word to the rest of the country. We have an effective set of laws here.

Now we know how to take ‘em down.

Nope. not talking to you.

I don't understand how someone could be so dismissive of a law that causes people to self deport and takes strain off resources that they don't pay for.

VA’s had some tough laws for a while now, so all the illegals have moved to Maryland, home of sanctuary cities and counties. Works for me. Wish I never had to go to MD, and do so as rarely as possible.

>>Only the Feds have the power to detain and/or deport.<<

True dat, but states hold the power of welfare, food assistance, and driving privileges.

Without cash, without EBT and the good chance of being jailed for Driving without a license, can make one move to greener pastures, tout de suite.

That’s what we call “self-deporting” and works the same for Alabama.

Even though we play Bama tomorrow, today I’ll say, “Roll Tide.”

All I am doing is pointing out that this is a toothless law.
Obama is suing Alabama over a toothless law.
All that is happening is Federal money and Alabama state money is being spent on a law that accomplishes NOTHING.

But feel free to blame Rick Perry.
I am sure it must be his fault.

Au Contraire Mon Freeper. It accomplishes plenty. Causing these illegals to self-extricate themselves from the local state and federal teat in Alabama gives back choice and freedom to Alabamans - a damn good thing. Were it only so across the rest of this nation.

Keep your Perry talking points in Texas. And while you are at it, please keep your governor there too.

The country is dividing up into producers and takers.
Calif, sadly is in the latter category.
The productive folks will continue to migrate.

some illegals told officials they planned to leave the state to avoid trouble with the law

Tell them all to go to Texas...

It does nothing.

The anxiety has become so intense that the superintendent in one of the state's largest cities, Huntsville, went on a Spanish-language television show Thursday to try to calm widespread worries.

"In the case of this law, our students do not have anything to fear," Casey Wardynski said in halting Spanish. He urged families to send students to class and explained that the state is only trying to compile statistics.

Police, he insisted, were not getting involved in schools.

It is, and I sympathize with you. But when you have a state governor and a legislature that panders to the legal hispanic citizenry to give away cheap educations to illegals, you create what is affectionately called an “attractive nuisance”... much the same as a homeowner in a subdivision installing a pool or a trampolene in their backyard with NO FENCE! It INVITES intrusion by passers by (children/illegals) and becomes a hazard to health, safety and well-being. It is National, but Texas isn’t helping. Take a clue from Arizona why don’t you.

If Christians and Jews follow God's words, they'll preach that ALL the Commandments must be followed out of Love for God. Not coveting what the USofA has and your Country doesn't is one of those. Not illegally entering the USofA and stealing jobs and benefits and resources belonging to US Citizens whose fathers and forefathers fought and died for is another one. How can anyone love God and his neighbor if he's stealing from his neighbor? What kind of love is that? The Churches and Synagogues should take up collections and send them to Mexico and Central and South America to help the Churches and people there. Catholic Relief Services and other Charity organizations should be overflowing with the generosity of US Citizens. And all CHRISTIAN and especially CATHOLIC illegal immigrants should be streaming home as penance for entering the USofA without benefit of legal documentation. I don't know if there are any non-Christian Illegal Immigrants, but they too, should be running to the border to cross back over and return to their homes.

It does plenty....you’re rebuttal to me was how Adminstrators and police offices had to assuage feelings among illegals that “it did nothing”.....

These people are uneducated and ignorant and sapping our life’s blood from our children. We don’t have endless supplies of money! We simply cannot afford to cure the world’s ills on our nickel any more.

The response from ‘establishment’? It don’t matter to you illegals...why in the hell would they do this? Precisely the reasons I gave before! Federal Money! More students, more money. More students, more free breakfast, lunch and dinner. More students, more taxes levied......why can’t you people see this....all because you don’t want to be seen as ‘heartless’......tell that to you grandchildren when they’re forced to learn what little they can in Spanish....

NO...these states along with the other 38 states.

These include Kansas (passed with a Republican supermajority in both houses), Nebraska (non-partisan, but with a supermajority of members who were otherwise Republicans), and Utah (again, with a dual supermajority of Republicans), New York (split control), Oklahoma (Republican House and even split in the Senate), as well as Illinois, Washington, and Wisconsin (Democratic simple majority in both houses), California, New Mexico.

Now you may be thinking to yourself, if only four states have prohibited state universities from considering undocumented students as residents, and eight have specifically permitted it, what about the other thirty-eight? They have not legislated on the matter at all. What is not prohibited is allowed.
