    Don't know if that particular clip is taking anything out of context - It simply states who introduced the bill. Therefore there has to be some kind of prerogative- I would never support anything that was introduced by hate, and if I did, and later found out I would denounce it and recognize it!
    The fact that this bill gives the power to police officers to "stipulate" is very dangerous, when they have never been trained on illegal immigrants, and there only resource is basically color profiling.
    Look the fu@!ing Governor dodged the question when they asked her what an illegal immigrant looked like. Why the Fu@! is she playing stupid, when there are 600,000+ illegal immigrants in the State!
    Congressman Bilbray (R) California says you can tell someone is illegal by the clothes they wear. Maybe Rep. Bilbray can go to Arizona and teach the police how to profile. It's a fu@!ing joke and no real solutions are being made....just making Hispanic's Second class citizens....

    The fact that 1 million dollars was spent by white supremacist to push this bill should be an eye opener. I am sure they aren't donating or supporting anything that has to do with progress of the real American way of life.


    Let's work on a solution.
    My god man you are so out of touch with reality on this. She didn't answer it bcos it was a loaded question. Where does it say that it gives them the power to stipulate ? It says he intoduced a bill it doesnt mean that he wrote it. Do you understand that the bill had to be voted on and passed in both houses ?? By guess what ????
    Democrates and Republicans

    and how do you know that these police officers have never been trained in with dealing with illegal immigrants ?? Im willing to bet that they are more than qualified. But you act is if the state of arizona is just going to start deputizing people and lettig civilians make citizens arrest.

    Look man no one is going to be profiled it clearly says it in the bill. I also asked you to point out to me in the bill where you seem to think that its a racist bill iand you have yet to do so.
    Further more the bill also says this...

    Allows a person who is a legal resident of this state to bring an action in superior court to challenge officials and agencies of the state, counties, cities, towns or other political subdivisions that adopt or implement a policy that limits or restricts the enforcement of federal immigration laws to less than the full extent permitted by federal law.

    · Requires the court to order any that a violating entity pays a civil penalty of at least $1,000 and not to exceed $5,000 for each day that the policy has remained in effect after it has been found to be violating these provisions.

    · States that the court will collect the penalty and transmit the collected monies to the state Treasurer for deposit in the Gang and Immigration Intelligence Team Enforcement Mission (GIITEM) Fund.

    · Authorizes the court to award court costs and reasonable attorney fees to any person or any official or agency that prevails in a case brought under these provisions.

    · Indemnifies officers against actions brought under these provisions, except if the officer has been adjudged to have acted in bad faith.

    · Stipulates that these provisions are to be implemented consistent with federal immigration law protecting the civil right of all persons and respecting the privileges and immunities of US citizens.


    So you can go ahead and have your silly little boycott and if you come in contact with law enforcement and you feel feel that your rights have been violated you can sue the state of Arizona..
    Im done discussing this with you...

    70% of Arizonans supported this bill, but 53% of those same people said they worry it could lead to civil rights violations
    You must fall under the 17%
    I would fall under the 30% who didn't support it.
    I will continue to boycott, by myself if necessary.

    The bill was introduced and created by people who are associated with white supremacist groups, :?

    are we going to work on a solution? Or are you going to continue to fight me on the bill?

    its quite simple really. mr webster defines racial profiling as such:

    racial profiling
    Part of Speech: n
    Definition: the consideration of race when developing a profile of suspected criminals; by extension, a form of racism involving police focus on people of certain racial groups when seeking suspected criminals

    noun
    a form of racism consisting of the (alleged) policy of policemen who stop and search vehicles driven by persons belonging to particular racial groups

    i don't know how it can be much more cut and dried and clear than that. this law will be profiling people based on their race and that is not only unethical and unconstitutional, its just plain wrong.

    I think one of the underlying motivations for the scapegoating of immigrants as the cause of all the country's ills is a fear of a change in or dillution of what many people feel are the "American" culture, language, traditions, customs, and morality.

    Note the title of the section of the book this quote came from as well: "Illegal immigration is against the law, and threatens our security, morality and traditions as a nation."

    That phrase is often tossed around by certain racists and white supremacists. When they're being "polite" about their views they'll say that it's not that they want African-Americans and Hispanics to leave the country because they hate them, it's just that they want to preserve their white-European culture, heritage, blah blah blah.

    Mark Levin is a lot of things, but I can promies you he doesn't sit at home and think to himself " god I hate brown people....how can I fuck with them today..."
    I am so sick and tired of people trying to marginalize a purely small government movement. At what point did they come out and say Whites are better I only like white people and that white people should be the only ones who benefit from lower taxes and less Federal Government? Jesus christ

    and here come the replies with a few examples of how the guy in ohio said racist things . . . I didn't say there weren't racists who consider themselves tea party members, but no more so than are in either party of the main stream today. Plenty of racist democrats out there, and plenty of racist republicans, does that mean the democratic party or the republican party is racist? No it doesn't

    $3 billion a year to educate, medicate, and incarcerate illegals in the state of Arizona (is the number being used by most of the lamestream)

    its no bailout, but that is not chump change for states in budget crunches

    Please spare me with this crap. I don't care who comes here as long as they do it LEGALLY.. WHY IS THAT SO HARD FOR YOU LIBERALS/PROGRESSIVES to understand this ?? All of you are showing ignorance of the ongoing, overwhelming crime due to illegal immigrants

    Do you think we should just open up our boarders and just let who ever come and go as they please ??


    Why don't you go down to the southern Arizona boarder and see for your self how out of control it is. As a matter of fact why don't you go into mexico and see the NARCO TERRORISM FOR YOUR SELF... Theres boarder patrol agents that have been attacked and almost killed by some of these people. heres an article from 2008.

    here's another link with more stories that proves that we have an epidemic on our hands, but Im sure you will just ignore it and play the race card. It's our fault

    Have you ever been to the boarder towns of Mexico? I have ... And no one has ever messed with me. When do you hear about white people going to Mexico and being killed for no reason? People involved in the Drug Business are usually the ones who are killed.... sometimes there are innocent killings, but rarely. Just like the US bombs innocent people, it rarely happens, right :roll:
    I'm not trying to justify the killings, but don't blow it up as a terrorist threat to the US or talk about it like its the Iraq war

    You wonder why the FED Government doesn't want illegal aliens out?

    Immigrant Households and Businesses Generate Billions: In 2005, immigrant households and businesses paid approximately $300 billion in federal, state, and local taxes: $165 billion in federal income taxes, $85 billion in state and local income taxes, and $50 billion in business taxes.

    Immigrants Pay More in Taxes Than They Use in Services Over Their Lifetimes: Depending on skills and level of education, each immigrant pays, on average, between $20,000 and $80,000 more in taxes than he or she consumes in public benefits.

    can you quote the article because it sure sounds like you are saying immigrants and transposing that with illegal immigrants. was it a typo? or does the article simply say immigrants

    My apologies - it was a typo, thanks for pointing it out.

    well I can tell you from past experience that people use fake social security numbers and id cards to secure jobs. In that way it is certainly possible to contribute to a program like social security. I just don't think it is nearly as high as the estimates but i think it is too hard to tell either way to get an accurate number

    The figures will never be exact, but between taxes that are reported and goods and services which taxes are levied, these people add an awful lot to a system they will never guaranteed anything to get back from. Also, another dirty little secret - a vast majority of jobs they have are jobs American workers have never wanted. If they become "legit on the book" jobs, the costs of so many goods and services for America would skyrocket beyond belief.

    Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis

    Good, but I didn't say "you", I said it's a phrase used by racists and supremacists. I'm not even the one who brought it up, you did when you plagiarized Levin.

    And it's not a matter of opinion, it's fact. David Duke uses it in his video endorsement ("we in America have the right to preserve our heritage, language, and culture,") and all you have to do is Google white supremacists websites and you can see them using those words to state their objection to illegal immigration: "preservation of our culture and heritage ". They use that phrase all the time so if you're going to use it, too, then that's who you're going to sound like.

    Please spare me with this crap. I don't care who comes here as long as they do it LEGALLY.. WHY IS THAT SO HARD FOR YOU LIBERALS/PROGRESSIVES to understand this ?? All of you are showing ignorance of the ongoing, overwhelming crime due to illegal immigrants

    Good, but I didn't say "you", I said it's a phrase used by racists and supremacists. I'm not even the one who brought it up, you did when you plagiarized Levin.

    And it's not a matter of opinion, it's fact. David Duke uses it in his video endorsement ("we in America have the right to preserve our heritage, language, and culture,") and all you have to do is Google white supremacists websites and you can see them using those words to state their objection to illegal immigration:



    Tea Party = violence, racism, bigotries, low IQ

    if your against Illegal immigration.....you’re a racist hating all people that are not white

    you are KKK if you use the words....the right to preserve our heritage, language, culture

    So please tell me what is wrong with trying to preserve our heritage and language and our culture ? Why and how is that racist ? I guess I can see where you are coming from if that is coming from an anti semite,but most americans are not racist and most americans are proud of our culture and our Heritage What the hell are they teaching in college these days ?
    Don't try twist this shit either .. I have no problem with other peoples culture,language ect. If anyone wants to learn about other cultures,learn another languge than go ahead. I have no problem with people from other countries coming here either and they can bring what ever they want. But our laws and our soughvernty should be respected.
    You make it sound like we are some horrible country.

    Sounds very easy on paper but in reality, most of these jobs are one's US citizens do not want, and the practical repercussions would be beyond normal comprehension. I highly doubt any american citizen would be complaining about immigrant workers once they had to pay like $4-5 per piece of fruit/vegetable. The discussion would merely then transform into security and taxes.. ie, legal reform for workers to keep track of people and get a cut of taxes without making the industry overwhelming.

    Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis

    I don't see that happening. Well, maybe to some extent, but not much. The only alternative I see to raising prices is outsourcing, which would mean we'd have even fewer jobs here in the U.S. But since this wouldn't happen across the board, I still think the cost of goods will increase. Do you think it won't at all?

    The question, I guess, is how much more we're willing to pay.
