"70% of Arizonans supported this bill. Who are the Dems going to rally...the 30% who opposed it?

70% of Arizona Voters Favor New State Measure Cracking Down On Illegal Immigration "

Perfectly said! Thank you.

ILLEGAL IS NOT A RACE, IT'S A CRIME

Oh, I only wish that was the worst of the photos I’ve seen.
Some are requested to not be distributed. Some I would never post. These cartels and the population they have ensnared are masters of torture. Did you hear about the one guy in Mexico who was convicted of destroying 300 people in vats of acid?

Immigration activists usually claim that opposition to illegal immigration is a form of hatred and racism. There's actually almost no racism involved. Here's why most Americans oppose illegal immigration:

1) Illegal immigrants raise the crime rate in America.
2) Illegal immigrants increase the motor vehicle accident rate in America. ( I can testify to that after a few harrowing taxi rides in Mexico with drivers who were stunningly reckless even with passengers in their cabs. A high percentage of illegal immigrants are dangerous drivers, no question about it.)
3) Illegal immigrants receive a high level of government benefits from the states and localities and divert money from schools and other priorities while driving up taxes.
4) A high percentage of illegal immigrants, if they become citizens or register to vote illegally, register as Democrats and vote for liberal politicians. These liberals can pass laws that most native-born people strongly oppose, such as the recent monstrous health care law. We have the right to resist a takeover of our country by left-wing socialist politicians because we strongly oppose the laws they vote for.

If you ask immigration advocates whether we should allow an unlimited number of Mexicans to immigrate to the US, most activists would say "yes." But if you then asked them if we should also allow an unlimited number of Chinese people to immigrate to the US, even as many as 100 million Chinese in the next ten years, I think most of the activists would say no to that idea because it would overcrowd America and overload our infrastructure. So their campaign for unlimited immigration is probably intended primarily for Mexicans and other people from Central America. We don't hate those people. We just want them to fix the problems in Mexico instead of moving up here and bringing those problems to America.

Sickeneing. Hopefully people in AZ are finally fed up. Supposedly a poll said 70% of people in AZ supported the law. Illegals have bankrupted AZ, CA and other states.

I think 25% of New Mexico or maybe higher is on Medicaid (aka illegal aliens benefits).

And whoever he was interviewing said it will hurt AZ GOP and Gov. state budget

He was talking nonsense.
Overwhelmingly, voters in Arizona back the bill. It will only do the GOP a lot of good.

This is a very flattering pic of her—unlike the Wikipedia and one I saw on the news. She has a lot of courage.

Yup.
I went to some trouble to look for a nicer picture, because she did the right thing. LOL!

Finally! A governor on the Southern border of the U.S. has some Juevos. Excellent. I’m going to send her a note of congratulation later this evening.

“... almost every single one, was cheering for Mexico and when I asked some why, it was because they were “Mexican”.”
____________________________________________________________

This attitude is rampant, sadly. I can cite two examples similiar to yours.

A Mexican who served in the U.S. Military to gain citizenship was asked if he would be willing to fight for his country again. His response, “which country”?

Another is my of my neighbors, Hispanics whose ancestors were here over 400 years ago, yet their grandson wears tennis shoes with the Mexican flag on them. He can’t even speak Spanish!

Everybody wants to belong to something but being an American is on the back burner for most minorities today. There is no loyalty to this country anymore for too many.

So sad that Arizona had to do as a STATE what the FEDERAL government is charged with doing in the Constitution all along. I find it so ridiculous that people can’t see the stupidity of this legislation — and by that I mean the stupidity that they had to even pass a law like this in the first place to make ILLEGAL immigration ILLEGAL!!!

God bless Gov. Brewer and the people of Arizona!

The election of BO is a symptom of this attitude.

How can your state afford NOT to pass this bill? Do you have any idea the amount of taxpayer dollars the State of AZ spends every year paying for illegal immigrants - through medical bills, through the schools, through crime, etc... etc... etc...

Saying that you can’t afford to enforce the law is just ridiculous! Anything the State pays to defend against this bill will be a drop in the bucket compared to how much the state has had to pay for YEARS supporting illegal immigrants. You should be thankful that your state has passed this legislation. If it is properly enforced the COSTS associated with illegal immigration should all but disappear - replaced by a much smaller cost of enforcement.

The water mules and maps will be disappearing, and the liberal “church members” who have been helping the illegals get here will soon find the terrain a little bit altered.

Good for AZ!! Today, I wish I still lived there!! YES!

They need to all get compasses... Wouldn’t want them heading north to the mine fields.
