    Nothing bad enough to worry about that I can think of.
    Can't say that surprises me.

    I would think the tax burden would go down as the social system supporting illegal immigrants gets less pressure.
    We'll see if reality resembles what you think. You seem to set a lot by it. Pardon me if I don't.

    I didn't say I couldn't think of any minor setbacks. There are several and I'm not about to start listing them. Thing with these is that they will correct themselves. I did specify "nothing bad enough to worry about." I'm sure our opinion would be 180 degrees on some of these.

    Spin spin spin...

    Isn't your rectum worn out yet?

    I never advocated extermination. Just border control with lethal force. That includes the north border asshole.

    Now this is how to write a " You" letter.

    http://hotair.com/wp/wp-content/uplo...aigosa.pdf.pdf



    Dear Mayor Villaraigosa,

    I was dismayed to learn that the Los Angeles City Council voted to boycott Arizona and Arizona-based companies — a vote you strongly supported — to show opposition to SB 1070 (Support our Law Enforcement and Safe Neighborhoods Act).

    You explained your support of the boycott as follows: “While we recognize that as neighbors, we share resources and ties with the State of Arizona that may be difficult to sever, our goal is not to hurt the local economy of Los Angeles, but to impact the economy of Arizona. Our intent is to use our dollars — or the withholding of our dollars — to send a message.” (emphasis added)

    I received your message; please receive mine. As a state-wide elected member of the Arizona Corporation Commission overseeing Arizona’s electric and water utilities, I too am keenly aware of the “resources and ties” we share with the City of Los Angeles. In fact, approximately twenty-five percent of the electricity consumed in Los Angeles is generated by power plants in Arizona.

    If an economic boycott is truly what you desire, I will be happy to encourage Arizona utilities to renegotiate your power agreements so Los Angeles no longer receives any power from Arizona-based generation. I am confident that Arizona’s utilities would be happy to take those electrons off your hands. If, however, you find that the City Council lacks the strength of its convictions to turn off the lights in Los Angeles and boycott Arizona power, please reconsider the wisdom of attempting to harm Arizona’s economy.

    People of goodwill can disagree over the merits of SB 1070. A state-wide economic boycott of Arizona is not a message sent in goodwill.

    Sincerely,

    Commissioner Gary Pierce

    Well put. For the leaders of LA to not have considered the repercussions of their actions is amusing. The knee jerk reaction to AZ will have consequences. Maybe if it plays out that way then the citizens of LA will consider new leadership.

    I agree with Mr. Pierce that though you may disagree with the new law in AZ there are good ways and bad ways to express your misgivings. Choose wisely.

    NOGALES, Ariz. - Assistant Police Chief Roy Bermudez shakes his head and smiles when he hears politicians and pundits declaring that Mexican cartel violence is overrunning his Arizona border town.



    "We have not, thank God, witnessed any spillover violence from Mexico," Bermudez says emphatically. "You can look at the crime stats. I think Nogales, Arizona, is one of the safest places to live in all of America."


    FBI Uniform Crime Reports and statistics provided by police agencies, in fact, show that the crime rates in Nogales, Douglas, Yuma and other Arizona border towns have remained essentially flat for the past decade, even as drug-related violence has spiraled out of control on the other side of the international line. Statewide, rates of violent crime also are down.


    While smugglers have become more aggressive in their encounters with authorities, as evidenced by the shooting of a Pinal County deputy on Friday, allegedly by illegal-immigrant drug runners, they do not routinely target residents of border towns.


    In 2000, there were 23 rapes, robberies and murders in Nogales, Ariz. Last year, despite nearly a decade of population growth, there were 19 such crimes. Aggravated assaults dropped by one-third. No one has been murdered in two years.

    ^^^ good post. yonivore is just being racist, perpetuating the myth that the primary victom of violence by illegals is the white, law abiding citizen. a completely inaccurate depiction of the situation there.

    how long is the cliche about "reading the law" going to perpetuate? it is written in many laws to not enforce those laws in certain manners or else risk encroaching civil rights, however, there are just some laws out there that lend themselves to more frequent violations of civil rights. laws do not exist in vacuums void of the human variable.

    What are you talking about now? You are spewing about civil rights in connection with this law. Why?

    because that is where the lawsuits are headed. what aspect do you think does not apply to further examination or appeal? is it a specific court case (e.g., adarand constructors v. pena), the fifth and fourteenth amendments? the aspect of ethnic or racial profiling potential similar to "driving while black" offenses?

    You should read the law. The law says nothing about "driving while black". Has no potential of racial profiling.
