Arizona's New Immigration Law

Yesterday Arizona's governor signed into law a new bill that allowed the police to arrest people on the streets for being illegal immigrants. Now of course how would they know this? By just looking at you! By merely suspecting that, you are here illegally the police can detain you or question you until proven you are a legal citizen.

Now these "criminals" are simply people who are crossing the boarder for a better life. Since this is the case, can i then say that our ancestors are "criminals?" Why did the founders come here? Way back then when people first colonized in America were not "legal" they came for a better life.

The problem is not immigration, the problem is the welfare. They come and steal our money from the welfare entitlement programs. If we reform those programs and we reduce those, then the problems will disappear. The only other argument will be terrorist. But the reality is that the 9/11 hijackers came here legally they got visas or what ever but they got here legally. So our own government let them in. The legal process. Another "systemic failure" i suppose

But what is it about this bill? Isn't this just like the patriot act? Where if you look suspicious or are suspected of terrorist activities you can be arrested without due trial. Same thing, if you look like an illegal immigrant, you're gone.

Now i do not have enough information on this bill but that's what i know is now allowed. A patriot act type law that violates personal freedoms.

Bottom line, i think if we can reform the entitlements then the problems of "taking money" and "milking the system" which i agree they are doing, will be resolved.

This law is quite interesting and once i get more info i will come back with a stronger opinion.
