Do we always have to learn after the fact?

I could turn around and ask, why didn't INS do their jobs, why didn't the airport screeners do their jobs. If either group had done their jobs, 9/11 wouldn't have happened and we wouldn't be having this debate.

As it is, Bush wants to legalize em all anyways, so it'll be a moot point.

Hell, the only way APD could start rounding up illegals, is to go after anybody with dark skin and ask for papers constantly. I will never ever ever ever support a government that does that.

Don't you know that Bush recently went on record as saying that he is against legalizing illegal aliens? Yeah, I know. What he says and what he will do is two different stories.

You are arguing at the extremes. Face it, what the Feds are asking the police to do is that in the course of performing their regular duties if they suspect that a person is not of legal status they can ask what their immigration status is. If the person can't perfect the documentation then the process moves on from there with INS involvement.
