Anyone who supports this law is unaware of two things: whether you enforce border laws or not, illegal immigrants will keep coming as long as people will hire them. There needs to be a crackdown on employers. They come here for a better life, not hostile takeovers of jobs. The other thing people are unaware of is that this law encourages racial profiling. This is a simple fact. If you give officers the right to stop people on the street under suspicion for being illegal, they're only going to stop Latinos. Hell it's already happened, just days before the governor signed it into law: http://www.azfamily.com/video/featured-videos/Man-says-he-was-racially-targeted-forced-to-provide-birth-certificate-91769419.htmlThis wasn't legal then, but now it is. And for people who hate illegal immigrants in general: they have no major negative impacts. They are not the law breakers (except immigration); the drug lords smuggling drugs into the country are. And of course the drug lords only exist because drugs are illegal in the first place.Illegal immigration hate is just another neocon frenzy of xenophobia. Hate 'dem Mexicans and Muslims 'cuz they gonna blow up Amurrica!

Actually, it's not about seeing an ID. It's about seeing documentation that absolutely NO ONE carries with them on a regular basis.http://www.cnn.com/2010/POLITICS/04/23/immigration.faq/index.htmlThey have to carry something more than their driver's license or social security number. They have to have a birth certificate, passport, greencard, or other documentation. This is utter horsestuff and is just playing on populist fears of Mexicans.
“I actually support microchipping them. I can microchip my dog so I can find it. Why can’t I microchip an illegal?
Wow. This is like the star of David holocaust arm band of our time... except, amazingly, more invasive and dehumanizing than the national socialist arm band or concentration camp tattoo system.
Yay, we are slowly turning into the Combine. Soon our population will be controlled and we will live in soviet blocks. :D
Did you hear about the new Arizona state law? Cops MUST ID all Mexicans or people that look like illegal immigrants.
