okay okay, the picture was too good to ignore ... which is by way of one of the more interesting sites around when you have time to spend ..Suicide Blond.
However the GOOD NEWS, the really good news, it seems, is that Americans understand the difference between a secure border and its results and an immigration policy...unlike most democrats whose greedy desire for the votes of any piece of meat with the physical ability to vote leads them to un-American desires and actions, and a significant proportion of republicans whose FEAR of never getting those meat votes leads them to lobotomized erectile dysfunction.
Rasmussen:
Nationally, 60% Favor Letting Local Police Stop and Verify Immigration Status ...
58% Favor Welcoming Immigration Policy
AND GET THIS ICON-KILLING MONEY LINE:

Support for a welcoming immigration policy is a bit higher among Republicans than it is among Democrats or voters not affiliated with either of the parties. Just 19% of GOP voters oppose a generally welcoming immigration policy. Opposition is at 28% among Democrats and 31% among unaffiliateds.
The law will stand or fall on the way the police stop people. If they handle this across the board the way the laws on seat belts are enforced, then it will succeed. If they stop people with darker skin and accents (detected from another car...hmmm) over made up broken turn signals, it will fail.
Either way, people seem to understand that the broken border means illegals and it is THAT which must stop, but otherwise on immigration, America remains to its own, what it has been, with few, and very unfortunate exceptions.
As the Chinese called it, the 'Golden Mountain'.

We Americans have a very nuanced view if this issue. It's not clear-cut. Politicians who try to pander, one way or the other, will find themselves on the bad side of the non-liberal, thinking half of the electorate.
Yep, I agree. In fact, I often wonder if our leaders are not far more one-dimensional and, probably even, racist than we the people.
That might explain why they go on and on about "racism" and the danger of "seeing Muslims as the enemy", and that kind of thing ...
BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THEY DO REFLEXIVELY.
Because they can't think any deeper than that.
F. Scott Fitzgerald said the mark of a first-class intellect is to be able to hold seemingly contradictory ideas in one's mind at the same time;
for instance,
Islam is our enemy
Muslims, in general, are not our enemy ...
or
Illegal immigrants are our enemy,
People of South American descent are among the best American citizens.
These two sets of ideas are, apparently, very difficult for our leading class to deal with.
LOL
Hear Hear!
The longer I live the more sensitive I have become to recognizing and analyzing the human characteristic of projecting one's own deep heartfelt biases and beliefs onto others.
I even use it to look into myself at times because I must confess that at times my own projections are more accurate than my conscience rationalizations.
I hope that every American, regardless of where he lives, will stop and examine his conscience about this and other related incidents. This Nation was founded by men of many nations and backgrounds. It was founded on the principle that all men are created equal, and that the rights of every man are diminished when the rights of one man are threatened. All of us ought to have the right to be treated as he would wish to be treated, as one would wish his children to be treated, but this is not the case.
I know the proponents of this law say that the majority approves of this law, but the majority is not always right. Would women or non-whites have the vote if we listen to the majority of the day, would the non-whites have equal rights (and equal access to churches, restaurants, hotels, retail stores, schools, colleges and yes water fountains) if we listen to the majority of the day? We all know the answer, a resounding, NO!
Today we are committed to a worldwide struggle to promote and protect the rights of all who wish to be free. In a time of domestic crisis men of good will and generosity should be able to unite regardless of party or politics and do what is right, not what is just popular with the majority. Some men comprehend discrimination by never have experiencing it in their lives, but the majority will only understand after it happens to them.
You're dead wrong Benito. The greatest act of liberty in perhaps the history of the world was the US Civil War which was fought and decided by the majority at the time.
Imposing the rule of a duly enacted and fair law upon lawbreakers and their proponents is what has made this nation great.
My challenge to you here and now...WHAT LEGAL DISCRIMINATION???
Show me it or stop whining.
If anyone's rights are diminished or threatened it is the rights of the citizens of Arizona to live according to law.
'This Nation was founded by men of many nations and backgrounds.'
Not so, it was basically founded and designed by Englishmen with some Dutch influence and perhaps even a little French.
