[COLOR="Magenta"]I am also an Arizonan.
I lol'd at the people who don't read the entire law.
Makin' opinions before they even read the law itself. Basing their opinions on what they hear from media and others. Sigh, you know people that's what starts wars!
Media and groups are stretching wayyy too much over it. People always find a reason to complain about something, and this one happens to be the nice hot spicy racism. Now mind you, I'm easily picked out as being mexican, when I'm not. Yes I'm tan, yes I have hispanic features. But I'm Spanish, Arabic and Chinese!
The biggest reason people point the finger at mexicans is because they ARE the majority of illegal immgrants in Arizona. I'm sorry, but that's pretty much how it is. I'm sure there was something similar during WWII and Japanese Americans. I mean, people are freaking out over this, but atleast we aren't sending them to concentration camps right? We're just pretty much going, prove your citizenship (visa, or license is perfectly ok), and if you can't prove it you're sent back to the country you came from. Simple.
People were bitching about something done about the immigration laws, well Arizona was like pineapple we'll do something about it if they won't. Now Obama is like woaaaahhhh ok let's look into this pomegranate here.
Sometimes you have to run before you can walk.
