AZ Law & Illegals.....

As a long time resident of Arizona I see us catching flack regarding our border policies, yet when a terrorist attack, possible attack, or criminal act happens by visa holders or illegals everyone throws a fit that we let them in the country. How did they get here, how could we not know? and so on... What all of you see is what happens around the country, none of you experience first hand what we deal with on a regular basis. Until you walk in our shoes, or at least take the time to read the new law, please don't prejudge what AZ has done. The law is designed to enforce FEDERAL law. Read the law, don't take someone's word for what it says, actually read it!!

If you believe Arizona passed its immigration law due to Hispanics, that is wrong. The law was passed to protect our borders from illegal immigrants - no matter the nationality. Phoenix is the #1 Kidnapping capital in the U.S. Not only do Mexicans cross the border, but people from Pakistan, Yeman, Iran, Iraq, and other countries that support terrorist. Also, people that are linked to terrorist groups are being documented as crossing the border illegally. Some have been caught, most of them not.....

Have you ever wondered who else may be crossing the borders? Please take a couple of minutes to watch this broadcast from WSB-TV in Atlanta. And to think, some people want to boycott us!

America is being chastised for protecting her borders, yet we have 194(apx) countries in this world with borders and they protect them.
Some countries throw you in a cell open to all the elements, have no food, water only runs for 1 hour per week, they have no clothes when yours ... See Morerots off, beaten & tortured on a regular basis, the toliet is your cell.. etcc.. We on the other hand, give them clothes, three meals a day, cable, medical, etc... Yet we're the bad ones..
It is not racist to protect our borders. Every country in this world has stricter and even more dangerous immigration laws then we do. To fall back on the old "racist" rhetoric just doesn't work. Just like the video's I posted said, it's not about just Mexicans, there are many other people from many other countries, including terrorists who are ... See Morecrossing our borders.

I am so sick & tired of someone throwing out the race card when they don't get their way or don't like something. To even claim that protecting our borders is "racism" is just plain ridiculous. It seems when some run out of any other objections they run to the race card. Some Blacks, Asians, Orientals, Mexicans, and many others are racist if you wanna go there. You have BET TV, NAACP, Ms. Asian Miss American, Miss Black Miss America, Spanish stations, Asian communities, black communities, Spanish communities, and so on.... We have college funds for many races, except for Caucasian. We have quotas that employers have to hire a minimum amount of different races, except Caucasians. But as a Caucasian woman I am sure someone reading this will call me a racist, yet they know nothing about me. Never mind I am raising a child that is not mine & of different origins, but none of that matters, because he is my son! I have 15 - 20 kids of different nationalities that hang at my house all the time and they all get treated the same and they all follow the same rules. Yet I still believe we need to protect our borders... So the racist claims don't really hold any water...

No one in this has said anything about not excepting immigrants and welcoming them with open arms, as long as they do it the LEGAL way.

There is also more then one issue to the illegal immigration issue. There are different types of Visas, there is political asylum, refugee status, illegal border crossers.... All these issues need to be separated and dealt with in different ways. Say you stay past your status date on your visa. I believe you should be given a chance to correct that and stay if you like. As long as you are a contributing member of society, no criminal record, and such. They at least proved they wanted to be part of this country. Most of them learn the language before they even get here. They deserve to be here.

Those that cross the border illegally and shun our laws, slap us in the face, endanger Americans on the border, and ignore everything we are about DON'T deserve to be here period! That is just facts, not racism!!!
