sadly, I do believe that there is an inherent angst, which often leads to anger, between all ethnic groups. Maybe, as the world "shrinks" and we all begin to realize that we are all equals, the angst will lessen, but the more dominant one ethnic group is, the stronger that division will be. I doubt there is one nation where everyone, regardless of ethnicity, simply gets along.

Nice point and in hundred years or less, races and ethnicities are gonna be soooooo blended we wont be able to tell who is who. This is a great by product of the free market and increasing globalization. With less expensive travel and world communication reaching every corner of the earth faster and faster, this has really sped things up. wonder what the racist will do then...

Maybe once "blended" people are the majority they will attempt to oppress the non-blended and will be racist towards people of only one race?

I honestly still dont understand the connection people blindly make between racism and this law. I am a huge civil liberties advocate, possible to the extreme. Anyone who reads the law will know that it doesn’t violate civil liberties. The Justice Department is suing Arizona not based on any civil liberties violation, but because they say the Federal Govt has preempted rights. They have no case for civil liberty violations.

That would be a change in response to you first statement, but I think policies of isolation most likely though. Yeah my statement though just spoke to the comment I quoted, not directly to the state law of Arizona.

Re: Arizona's New Immigration Law

"Opponents of the Justice Department's lawsuit challenging the enforcement of Arizona's controversial illegal-immigration law have hit upon a strategy to highlight what they contend is a gaping inconsistency in the Justice Department's policy priorities. Why should federal attorneys be targeting the Arizona law as an alleged obstacle to coherent and centralized enforcement of federal immigration statutes, they argue, while Justice officials also have done nothing to challenge the legal status of so-called sanctuary cities, which effectively block enforcement of the same federal law?"

Re: Arizona's New Immigration Law

Judge pretty much blocks the teeth of this law with a partial injunction stopping police from asking about their immigration status. I pretty much knew this judge would take the liberal stand from what I had read about her. I'm sure the left will see this as a victory but I think its just another strike against them come November because most people supported this Arizona bill.

Re: Arizona's New Immigration Law

For years the Catholic Church has been losing numbers, IMO because of the homosexual child molesting priests. To make up for their lost numbers, they've been welcoming in illegal alien Mexicans. They protected them from law enforcement and have pissed all over the sovereignty of the US. Karma is a MOFO.

Drunk illegal alien, awaiting deportation kills nun in Va.

But they all come here to work. More like they come here to work you over. Ha!

Re: Arizona's New Immigration Law

This was posted on Craigslist Richmond. I thought I would share it with y'all.

SHERIFF JOE IS AT IT AGAIN!

Oh, there's MUCH more to know about Sheriff Joe!

Maricopa County was spending approx. $18 million dollars a year on stray animals, like cats and dogs. Sheriff Joe offered to take the department over, and the CountySupervisors said okay.

The animal shelters are now all staffed and operated by prisoners. They feed and care for the strays. Every animal in his care is taken out and walked twice daily. He now has prisoners who are experts in animal nutrition and behavior. They give great classes for anyone who'd like to adopt an animal. He has literally taken stray dogs off the street, given them to the care of prisoners, and had them place in dog shows.

The best part? His budget for the entire department is now under $3 million. Teresa and I adopted a Weimaraner from a
Maricopa County shelter two years ago. He was neutered, and current on all shots, in great health, and even had a microchip inserted the day we got him. Cost us $78.

The prisoners get the benefit of about $0.28 an hour for working, but most would work for free, just to be out of their cells for the day. Most of his budget is for utilities, building maintenance, etc. He pays the prisoners out of the fees collected for adopted animals.

I have long wondered when the rest of the country would take a look at the way he runs the jail system, and copy some of his ideas. He has a huge farm, donated to the county years ago, where inmates can work, and they grow most of their own fresh vegetables and food, doing all the work and harvesting by hand.

He has a pretty good sized hog farm, which provides meat, and fertilizer. It fertilizes the Christmas tree nursery, where prisoners work, and you can buy a living Christmas tree for $6 - $8 for the Holidays, and plant it later. We have six trees in our yard from the Prison.

Yup, he was reelected last year with 83% of the vote.
Now he's in trouble with the ACLU again. He painted all his buses and vehicles with a mural, that has a special hotline phone number painted on it, where you can call and report suspected illegal aliens. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement wasn't doing enough in his eyes, so he had 40 deputies trained specifically for enforcing immigration laws, started up his hotline, and bought 4 new buses just for hauling folks back to the border. He's kind of a 'Git-R Dun' kind of S heriff.

TO THOSE OF YOU NOT FAMILIAR WITH JOE ARPAIO

HE IS THE MARICOPA ARIZONA COUNTY SHERIFF

AND HE KEEPS GETTING ELECTED OVER AND OVER
THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY:

Sheriff Joe Arpaio (In Arizona ) who created the ' Tent City Jail':
He has jail meals down to 40 cents a serving and charges the inmates for them.

He stopped smoking and porno magazines in the jails. Took away their weights Cut off all but 'G' movies.

He started chain gangs so the inmates could do free work on county and city projects.

Then He Started Chain Gangs For Women So He Wouldn't Get Sued For Discrimination.

He took away cable TV Until he found out there was A Federal Court Order that Required Cable TV For Jails So He Hooked Up The Cable TV Again . Only Let In The Disney Channel And The Weather Channel.

When asked why the weather channel, He Replied, "So They Will Know How Hot It's Gonna Be While They Are Working ON My Chain Gangs".

He Cut Off Coffee Since It Has Zero Nutritional Value.

When the inmates complained, he told them, 'This Isn't The Ritz/Carlton...... If You Don't Like It, Don't Come Back.'

More On The Arizona Sheriff:

With Temperatures Being Even Hotter Than Usual In Phoenix (116 Degrees Just Set A New Record), the Associated Press Reports:
About 2,000 Inmates Living In A Barbed-Wire-Surrounded Tent Encampment At The Maricopa County Jail Have Been Given Permission To Strip Down To Their Government-Issued
Pink Boxer Shorts.

On Wednesday, hundreds of men wearing boxers were either curled up on their bunk beds or chatted in the tents, which reached
138 Degrees Inside The Week Before.

Many Were Also Swathed In Wet, Pink Towels As Sweat Collected On Their Chests And Dripped Down To Their PINK SOCKS.

'It Feels Like We Are In A Furnace,' Said James Zanzot, An Inmate Who Has Lived In The TENTS for 1 year. 'It's Inhumane.'

Joe Arpaio, the tough-guy sheriff who created the tent city and long ago started making his prisoners wear pink, and eat bologna sandwiches, is not one bit sympathetic.... He said Wednesday that he told all of the inmates: 'It's 120 Degrees In Iraq And Our Soldiers Are Living In Tents Too, And They Have To Wear Full Battle Gear, But They Didn't Commit Any Crimes,So Shut Your Mouths!'

Way To Go, Sheriff!

Maybe if all prisons were like this one there would be a lot less crime and/or repeat offenders. Criminals should be punished for their crimes - not live in luxury until it's time for their parole, only to go out and commit another crime so they can get back in to live on taxpayers money and enjoy things taxpayers can't afford to have for themselves.

If you agree, pass this on. If not, just delete it.

You may want to check your facts, you sound like an idiot. A simple lookup on wiki before you made your post should've stopped this nonsense before it turned into a post. Facts are the problems in the Catholic Church were no greater than society as a whole.

As far as the Catholic Church losing membership and that's why they're protecting illegals, that's complete BS. Between 1997 and 2007 the Catholic population in the U.S. increased 15%. The Catholic Church supporting illegals staying in the U.S. has nothing to do with $$$$, it's based on compassion. Catholics aren't the only ones protecting illegals either. Last I checked, the Catholic Church didn't set any city policies for several sanctuary cities. Born again Pres. Bush did little to nothing to stem the tide of illegal immigration. And BTW not all Catholics agree with the church's stance on this.

Before you make a dumbass, offensive, statement like a nun being killed was "karma". Have your facts straight....and yes I'm Catholic.

Re: Arizona's New Immigration Law

Having come to this thread at a very late date I will offer something that I didn't see offered, if I've missed it then I can only say please forgive my wearding ways.

ONLY the US Supreme Court has Constitutional Authority to Conduct the Trial of the Case Against Arizona & Governor Brewer. « Publius-Huldah's Blog

Quote:
1. Does anyone read the U.S. Constitution these days? American lawyers don’t read it. It is certain that only a few in Congress have even heard of it. Federal Judge Susan R. Bolton apparently has never read it. Same goes for our illustrious Attorney General Eric Holder. But this lawyer has read it and she is going to show you something in Our Constitution which is as plain as the nose on your face.
It appears to me that with all the lawyers in power, including Obama who is a Constitutional lawyer (you must be kidding me), reading the Constitution appears to be considered a waste of time or at the very least they think the average american doesn't read or care about that wonderful piece of legislation.

Sadly I must add the governor's lawyers seem to be in the same boat, they can't read either.

Governor, get yourself a more competent group/firm!

The problem isn't their understanding of the Constitution but your profound misunderstanding of it and our judicial system. Like, ummm, federal courts assist, ummm, like, ummm, the Supreme Court. Capisce?

My profound misunderstanding of it, Hmmm.

Article III section 2

In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction.

You know you really should take time to read it, your understanding of it would then be profound, ummm, like, ummm the lower courts have NO legal right to render a ruling. Capisce?
