Ok, I have had it with all the idiots out there that constantly say that Arizona’s SB 1070 is a recipe for discrimination. Have these people read the law and seen that for the police to enforce this law that a person needs to be stopped for an infraction, i.e. reckless driving, suspected DUI, accident, disorderly conduct etc.
First of all, what is wrong with law enforcement asking to see some identification? I'm a legal American citizen and I must show my identification every time when:
1. Pulled over by the police.
2. Making purchases with a credit card.
3. When I show up for a doctor's appointment.
4. When filling out a credit card or loan application.
5. When applying for or renewing a driver's license or passport.
6. When applying for any kind of insurance.
7. When filling out college applications.
8. When donating blood.
9. When obtaining certain prescription drugs.
10. When making some debit purchases.
11. When collecting a boarding pass for airline or train travel.
I'm sure there are more instances, but the point is that we citizens of the USA are required to prove who we are nearly every day!
Why should people in this country illegally, be exempt!!!!!
This is a National Security issue, the Federal Government has neglected one of its primary duties, to Defend and Protect the United States of America. Why shouldn't we guard our borders as closely as every other country in the world does?
Do not get me wrong, I am not against LEGAL immigration or even a Guest Worker program being setup for the folks that want to come here and perform the jobs that Americans don’t want to perform. Let’s also remember that these people are being exploited by criminals, paying astronomic amounts to be smuggled into the USA. It is time for the scumbags in Washington D.C. to start doing their jobs and stop playing politics with this vital matter! AND NO, blanket amnesty is NOT the answer!
