SB 1070 Or The Arizona Immigration Bill

[Husar]

Maybe the republican party should not just ignore the needs of the new minorities that are nonetheless US citizens.
If it ignores a large part of the voters it shouldn't blame the voters for it's own downfall.

Or do you allow illegal immigrants to vote?

Nope, illegal immigrants cannot vote under any circumstances, and despite prolonged investigations, no evidence has ever surfaced that they are a significant source of vote fraud. Electorally speaking, they're terra incognita.

Even comparing these 2 suituations is lunacy. Louie don't let the impressionable young minds get any ideas.

Why? Because you don't think Mexicans come from the moon?

That's what the Tejanos thought back in 1848 too. 'A few Anglo immigrants are not going to change Texas....'

Welcome to the return of history. The US Southwest is currently being colonised as much as it was in the 19th century.

It's a stupid law, and should have never been passed.

I'll make this real simple. I don't like illegal immigrants, and if caught they should be deported. Plenty of people, including my great grandfather who fought in a world war so my family could have a better life, have immigrated to this country legally. The process is not easy, and often takes a great amount of money, time, and stress. People who bypass this process are cheating and should be punished.

That being said, all I think this law is going to do is increase racial profiling among LEGAL immigrants and people of Mexican descent. The police can say they won't do it, but something really stinks here.

Would you agree that racial profiling is only wrong if, say, statistics would not show huuuuuuuuuuge differences between races?

Or?

Indeed. Aztlan is a dangerous concept for the US. This time, though, we have the resources to stop it. We just don't have the political will.

[Beskar]

Aztlan sounds like pre-WW2 Europe concept of German Lebensraum.

What is more likely to happen, is that North America merges into one nation state instead of the current 3 seperate ones.

You're average Mexican immagrant is about as concerend with aztlan as I am with kicking out all the Irish.

The vast majority of Mexicans I know hate Mexico and speak english to eachother and like anyone else they are to busy with there families and jobs to worry about a marganilized consparicy theory.
