Arizona Illegal Immigration Bill is Right.

Arizona got it right with their illegal immigration bill, and as it typical of the left they are spreading lies and misinformation about how the law will be enforced, it’s constitutionality, and it’s affects on the people in the state. The law directs police to verify the immigration status of any person they have “reasonable suspicion” to be in the country and the state illegally. Individuals found to be in the country illegally will be arrested and turned over to I.C.E.

The left is yelling that this will result in racial profiling and that people will be questioned because of the color of their skin. No lie could be worse than that one. The law requires that a police officer have “reasonable suspicion.” That means they can’t question someone because of the color of their skin. Skin color is not justifiable as a “reasonable suspicion.” Any officer that does so will be committing racial profiling which is illegal under state law.

The other lie is that the law is unconstitutional. That idea is founded in the belief that it intrudes on the Federal Government’s authority to enforce immigration law. No it doesn’t. Federal law makes it illegal to sell or possess narcotics. State laws say the same thing. Are states intruding upon the Federal Government’s role to enforce drug trafficking laws? No. Likewise, by making illegal immigration in the state of Arizona a state crime, it does not interfere with the role of the Federal Government. This is why. Arizona is not deciding what makes an individual legal or illegal. The Federal Government decides what makes a person legal or illegal. State law is not exceeding Federal law in this instance. Also, Arizona is not going to deport people, I.C.E. will deport them. So Arizona will not be performing the deportation role of the Federal Government.

Lastly we see that violence is a creature of the left. Because of this issue we have seen leftists fighting with police and a swastika was smeared on the state capital building using refried beans. Guess I’ll have to stop eating refried beans now. For a year the left has accused the Tea Party of inciting violence, and the first real of act of violence is not committed by the Tea Party, but by the pro-illegal immigrant crowed on the left.

Arizona is stepping up where the Federal Government has failed to take a stand. My hope is other states impacted by illegal immigration like Arizona will do the same.

Extremus.
