2,200 Americans a year are murdered by illegal ali
Arizona has passed nearly identical legislation to U.S. Code 1306Illegal Arizona Immigrants refer to U.S. Code 1306
“Any alien who fails or refuses to be fingerprinted or register…shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and fined $1000.00 dollars or imprisoned for six months…”
An estimated average of 170,000 Mexicans are legally allowed into the U.S. every year.
According to Ed Kowaliski, board member of 9/11 Families for a Secure America whose niece was killed by an illegal immigrant in 2005, the issue is about safety and stems back to 9/11. Had many of the attackers not received visas in such an easy manner, 9/11 may have never happened. Those individuals were in the country illegally, they hid in plain sight, and 8 of them were registered to vote.
A staggering, 2,200 Americans a year are murdered by criminal illegal aliens.
“When the citizens and the governor of AZ stand up for the rule of law, and our President calls that action misguided, he’s misguided! When Al Sharpton is in Phoenix this week calling for the repeal of that law he’s misguided! When our President in effect states that illegal’s’ in AZ are not going to be able to take their children to get an ice cream cone for fear of being deported, perhaps he doesn’t understand and doesn’t remember that 3 years ago in the state of Colorado a 3 year old American child was murdered by an illegal alien in an ice cream parlor.”
This is a national security issue!

I don't think streamlining the process is going to help matters in the fight against terrorism.
The border needs to be secure, otherwise there's not going to be a great America to come to anymore!
We can't afford all the problems that this issue is causing, and Americans are being put in an unsafe position unnecessarily.
Many of the protests involving the Latinos have been organized by the Labor Unions that support Obama, such as SEIU. Unfortunately, None of this is really about the people. Instead it is about a political agenda. They are using the Latinos to gain political power.
There is much more to this issue than what is generally being reported in most of the news media.
We can't put ourselves at risk saving everybody!
America only has so many resources...
Good fences, make good neighbors.
Think about it!

The ink hadn’t even dried from Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer’s signature on the anti-illegal immigration law written by the state legislature before the shrieks and howls and wailing and gnashing of teeth began in earnest in the media.
“This is racial profiling!” they screamed. “What about civil liberties?” “All this does is discriminate against Hispanics!” they moaned.
Wow, what a fuss. Fury erupted because Arizona lawmakers had had enough and decided to become the first state to have the guts to give police the authority to do the unthinkable: enforce the law.
Some concept, huh? Actually letting cops do their jobs. So when an Arizona police officer pulls someone over for speeding or weaving through traffic and they discover that the driver has absolutely no identification on them and is barely capable of speaking English, that officer might conclude that the driver is in Arizona illegally. Ask any cop and they’ll assure you that it doesn’t exactly take a forensics team from NCIS to figure out that someone is an illegal.
But ACLU-loving, America-hating bunch that seems to think illegal immigrants deserve weekly ticker-tape parades down Main Street is mortified at Arizona’s chutzpah. They’re upset that at least in ONE state, the jig is finally up.
For too long now, the apologists for illegal immigrants have played a little game. They pretend to understand that the act of sneaking across the border and taking up residence in America is against the law. They even profess discomfort at illegals getting free health care, taking jobs that could belong to American citizens, and occupying seats in our country’s already overcrowded classrooms.
But they expect everyone to ignore the problem. They insist that illegal immigration is a federal concern and therefore oppose any effort for local law enforcement -- the real soldiers in the trenches -- to be able to do anything about it. It’s as if they believe there’s a magical, mythical federal army of illegal immigration watchdogs that just hasn’t quite yet gotten around to arresting illegals.
But it’s just a game to these folks. They resist enforcement of our illegal immigration laws and pretend to pawn the problem off on the feds so that the problem will never get solved.
Well, Arizona just took a giant step towards rectifying the situation. Polls show over 70% of state residents support the Senate bill that Gov. Brewer signed into law. I’ll bet the national percentage is even higher.
We are, after all, a nation of laws. And we live in a culture where carrying a form of identification is as normal as keeping your car keys in your pocket. When any of us walk into a grocery store and cashes a check, no one skips a beat when asked to present our driver’s license. If a police officer is looking for a criminal, he or she might stop a number of people in that particular area and ask to see their driver’s license. No one bellyaches about civil rights or privacy issues. We’re just happy the cops are trying to find the bad guy. Continued...
