I Support the Arizona Law--and I've Read It!

.

I have been reading about the new Arizona law for weeks. Now I've read it. Duh!

This is a no brainer. It is absurd to oppose it. One article I read last week criticized the law for "criminalizing illegal immigration." Think about those three words. That would be like wanting to take a law off the books for "making it illegal to enter someone else's home unlawfully."

Here's what the article said: "The proposal would make Arizona the only state to criminalize the presence of illegal immigrants through an expansion of its trespassing law. It also would require police to try to determine people's immigration status when there's reasonable suspicion they are in the country illegally. An estimated 460,000 illegal immigrants live in the state."

First of all, I suspect the 460,000 number is very low. The reaction to the law would hint that some know the number is much higher. And let's face it, we know when you include all of the border states from Texas to California, the number is in the tens of millions. If a state with nearly half-a-million illigal immigrants wants to start solving the problem one crime at a time, what right has any other state or the White House to stop them. Ignoring the law is not evidence of compassion. If it were, then why not let them steal a car while they're at it. If what they are stealing is based on need, that would be just as "compassionate" as letting them steal citizenship or residence. This is not about compassion ; it's about fiscal responsibility and national security.

Like many of you, I have traveled abroad. I never go anywhere without my papers. If for some reason I would have been caught in the country of the Neatherlands, or Jordan, or Isreal, or Japan, or Thailand without my passport, I would have been held and in a world of hurt. Goodness, we can't even get back into the U.S. from Canada anymore without a passport. Show me the country on this globe that does not have such laws AND ENFORCE THEM, and I'll show you a country at risk of gradual take-over. I am against profiling and prejudice but we must enforce our borders!

Let's imagine there was a concert at the State Fair. Patrons paid their $28 at the gate and got a wrist band to get in. Now let's say that some folks found a way to crawl under the far tent wall. This law would be like saying that State Fair security is allowed to ask to see wrist bands and escort those out who didn't pay to get in. Like I said: it's a no brainer.

Here's an even better example: Let's say there was a State Dinner at the White House and two people who weren't invited just decided to show up anyway. This law would be like asking people for some proof of invitation since their names are not on the list. Surely even the President understands the need to enforce such things. Or does he?

Seventy percent of U.S. citizens on both sides of the political aisle AGREE with this law. I think that number will grow inspite of the hype against it.

There is only one logical explanation for why Obama's folks and so many liberals are using hateful language and positioning themselves to be opposed to Arizona's enforcement of the law. They plan to let those illegals cut to the front of the line, let them tap the Community Chest, and get one "Get Out of Jail" card so the Dems can monopolize the fastest growing voter block in over half of these United States.

Yes, Sir. I have a funny feeling that millions of wrist bands are already being printed to hand out at that gap under the far tent wall.
