Should the governor dismiss all protests out of hand because there are out of state people involved, the governor would be showing the short-sightedness endemic to Conservative governors. If Wallace dismissed all Civil Rights protests because not every marcher was from Alabama, he would be seeking shallow comfort and showing incredibly myopic leadership.Does that go for the Freedom Riders of the 1960s, or do you think students at the University of Mississippi helped organize the effort?from the link in post #6;
"Protesters swelled in front of the Capitol as people converged to rally against Senate Bill 1070 during the day. Some came from as far away as California.
The size of the crowd grew over the course of the afternoon, and estimates by Phoenix police and media varied between 1,500 and about 2,000. By about 5 p.m., most of the crowd had dispersed, but a new wave of about 50 to 100 protesters arrived from Carl Hayden Community High School.
During the day, some of the protesters marched around the building, chanting, "Si se puede," or "We can do it." They were joined by 56 members of the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles, who arrived by bus."
Does anyone besides me see a problem with people from another state meddling in a state's political process? I would think that the governor might simply dismiss the entire crowd thinking they are all from California and do not represent registered voters of the state.
As an aside, the only people that have been out in the little mountain town I live in are a few local residents that do vote here urging other registered Az voters to call the governor in support of the bill.
In this case, the brilliant, compassionate and liberty loving statesmen of Arizona are taking jurisdiction of the federal border. They want basically a "pass law" enacted after other repressive regimes have tried it and ultimately failed. But, they must be Conservatives. They simply don't learn from their own mistakes because they fail to learn history.
Taking jurisdiction from the INS.
Doesn't that make this case a national one by default?
It is a national problem, once they leave mexico and come through Az they go everywhere.
This law will be challenged in court, federal court. We all know and expect it. That will likely bring to light the fact this law addresses a federal responsibility that the federal government is not living up to. maybe it will force the federal government to act. That is the hope here anyway.
However; bringing in protesters from another state to try to influence a governor to sign or not sign a state bill into law is detrimental in a way that the protesters and the organizers of the out of state protesters probobly did not plan on.
It allows to governor to totally dismiss ALL the protesters as being from out of state. She doesn't have to worry about them at all, because they have no vote in the state.
Those that do live in the state, and are part of the protest then become as minimized as the out of state protesters. That was what i was pointing out.
I live in a very rural area of the state in a small town and have not met anyone that opposes the bill. Butthen last year we had one of our deputies killed by illegals. We are not guessing, they were caught, we know they were illegals and were smuggling drugs and people and were armed.
How many of these protestors are not Arizonans?

The Arizona law as proposed is basically Jim Crow for the Brown rather than the Black. All Americans should protest this bit of bigotry.
These people are obviously racists.

I got used to it during the 1960s. Conservatives then were far more dismissive of protests then than any Liberal is today.Should the governor dismiss all protests out of hand because there are out of state people involved, the governor would be showing the short-sightedness endemic to Conservative governors.

Don't whine when others treat a protest you support with the same contempt that the left treat TEA Parties.
How many of these protestors are not Arizonans?
A good chunk, many are Illegal Immigrants!
This law is nothing more than the repressive "Pass Laws" of South Africa reborn in the Arizona desert. Under this law, any local Arizona cop can stop any Latino and ask for his papers. As you know, Latinos are the largest minority in the country. Many Latinos are here legally or are American citizens.Should the governor dismiss all protests out of hand because there are out of state people involved, the governor would be showing the short-sightedness endemic to Conservative governors.

As always, I respect your opinion, yet I strongly disagree.
This law was created in response to the tremendous amount of crime in our state, capped off by the recent cold blooded murder of a popular rancher who's killers were traced to the border. Yet, none of the officials in mexico would do anything except admit that, yes, the killer fled south accross the border.
This state used to be mexico. There are a lot of hispanic people here. My wife for one, my grandkids for 3 more. My son in law came LEGALLY from Oaxaca. Most of us that live here have connections to hispanics.
Yes there are bigots, they exist everywhere. But this law was not "basically Jim Crow for the Brown rather than the Black". That is just the wrong assumption to make.
As far as the governor being a short-sighted conservative, I am not a fan of her. She became gov when dammit janet left to head up the DHS. We have an election in NOV.
I will say that the risk of all the protesters being minimized because of out of state protesters is real. That's all I was pointing out in previous posts. If she thinks that the protesters are not voters, and thatthe people that have been calling to support the bill are voters, who do you think she will listen to?
She is running for reelection this year.

Enforcement of the immigration laws falls to federal authorities at the border and at the employer. Not to the local constabulary on the streets of Arizona.
This solution is Jim Crow for the Brown rather than the Black. You're not gaining liberty with these Gestapo tactics, you're erasing it.
Justice for the victims of crimes committed by illegal immigrants cannot be found by harassing everyone who looks Latino.
how is proving citizenship harassment? I have to show my papers and my feet and my whole body when boarding an airplane. If i fly to france or canada or mexico i must have papers to prove citizenship do i not/ so cry us a fucking river.this law is nothing more than the repressive "pass laws" of south africa reborn in the arizona desert.

I'm an american and i have to show my papers, and my feet, and my whole body is scanned when the authorities deem it necessary and before you give me "it saves lives" bs i dare you to tell me how many americans die at the hands of illegals vs how many die on a plane because of terrorists. .should the governor dismiss all protests out of hand because there are out of state people involved, the governor would be showing the short-sightedness endemic to conservative governors.

When you fly you have to comply with certain regulations. There is an implied contract. Show my ID at the airport? Fine. You are assuring our safety. The same goes for buying alcohol. Show my ID?
