An open letter/rant to Seattle and Los Angeles on the Arizona boycott!

I for one fail to understand the reasoning of your decision to boycott
Arizona.

They have done what the United States federal government is required to do,
and has flat out refused to!

While Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Phoenix, was attempting to perform his duties,
under the guidelines set forth by the federal government, that same federal
government made it difficult in every way possible, for him to enforce
federal laws regarding undocumented aliens (illegal aliens).

The state got so fed up with the federal government's bungling of their own
laws, the state decided to literally take the law into their own hands.

If anything, you should be backing this new law. Not be stabbing it in the
back.

To educate you a little, this recent battle between the state of Arizona
and the DHS head, Janet Napolitano [former arizona governor], required an
agreement between the Sheriff's office and federal government. This came to
a heated argument when two ICE agents questioned the authority of a deputy
sherriff's right to question the driver of a vehicle after a traffic stop.

Since that argument, things between the two departments got rather steamy
over the months. To the point where local law enforcement was not even
allowed to ask a person for documentation. Period. Not even if only state
laws were violated.

Uh excuse me Miss Napolitano ma'am, but isn't there somewhere in the laws
of the United States requiring a legal visitor to have proper and duly
issued documentation of some kind? Which they are required to have on their
person at all times? Apparently, understanding the laws as they exist is
not your way of doing business. It's "my way or the highway".

But you went and got enough people pissed off, they decided to over step
your authority. I'm damned glad they did it too. Because YOU, can not
control the authority of a state officer given to that officer by that
state. That is precisely why you are pissed off.

Did Arizona stab you in the back? Not unlike the thousands of times you
stabbed them in the back. Now the state has it in writing, directing it's
officers to verify the status of any suspected "illegal alien". In regards
to state laws, not federal.

Kind of like when you visit a foreign country in Europe. When you cross a
border you get asked for "papers" don't you? No papers, you get sent off to
jail and maybe a year or two later get to go home. If you're that lucky.

Madame, there are federal laws in this country to which even you MUST
adhere too. No, you do not have the right to pick and choose which laws you
feel like enforcing and how they get enforced. No you do not have the legal
right to create your own laws.

The new Arizona law is merely an enhancement of existing federal laws,
which the federal government is totally unwilling to enforce. The new law
is merely bolstering the fact, that a visitor to that state, MUST HAVE
certain documentation provided by the federal government. Even including
certain documentation provided by the state, such as a driver's license.
No, an illegal alien does not get the "right to drive" simply by being in
the state. Maybe they do in Washington and California. Then why do the
states issue license plates and driver's licenses?

Roger Barnett, a rancher who owned property in the southern section of
Arizona found many times, illegal aliens using his property. Because he
dared to excercise his right to hold those trespasser for the authorities,
he was properly sued, at least twice, and lost both times. Why do illegal
aliens even get the oppurtunity to abuse the court system like this?

When illegal aliens are discovered, by any law enforcement officer, they
are to be taken jail, then deported. No, they do not get the right to a
trial by jury. "Rights" are for natural citizens and those persons who are
visiting this country legally and properly.

Perhaps the states of California and Washington should write similar laws
and enforce them. Otherwise, we may as well as open the borders and not
even bother with it.

As it stands now, an illegal alien can do as he damn well pleases with no
fears.

 

Make the law like the one Mexico uses and see how THEY like THAT.....

 

Don't stop with Seattle and LA. There's lots more...

It's all politics in CA. Way back in 1994 California passed Prop 187 but it
was shot down by the courts

What every happened to "Your vote counts" Back then California's Assembly
Speaker Antonio Villaraigosa, who is Hispanic and now the Mayor of LA
participated in the mediation against it also ruled for the boycott.

Your nickname precludes any understanding, RtS.

 

Nope. It's a rare occurrence.

 

Because they are passing a law *completely* beyond their authority
according to the US constitution. What's not to understand?

Due to Scrub no doubt. Surely a extenuating case if any has occurred.

What are you nuts? they just don't let you in if you don't have a
*passport*. Say that word slowly so you'll learn it.

Bullshit. They're caught, detained and then shipped back across to Mexico.
Daily. I just happens to often to make a news story is all.

 

Nope. If that were true then why the need of that new law? ICE is a federal
government entity. They get involved only if you break a federal law.
What about this Luna Luna asshole
