Trying to fix a broken law

Amendments to Arizona immigration law fall short

As a rule of thumb in politics, it’s not a good sign when a law has to be fixed before the ink is even dry on the governor’s signature on the original bill. That’s what happened recently in Arizona, where backers of the controversial law that deputizes local police to enforce federal immigration law by cracking down on people they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally (read: Latinos) claim that the original law signed by Gov. Jan Brewer has now been stamped “new and improved.â€

Enforce all U.S. immigration laws and secure the border

and the states won't have to do it for you.

Its not a bad sign because the Governor got the jump on the critics and blocked their complaint.

extends to those instances where police respond to something as minor as city ordinance violations. That could include loud parties, barking dogs, cars on blocks or overcrowded apartments. Imagine overzealous neighbors turning in the person next door for having a party and the music is too loud. Is that the kind of hard-core criminal activity the law was intended to prevent?

This may not be hard core criminal activity but they sure are quality of life issues that we did not have before 18 people moved into a two bedroom house put three cars up on blocks, has 5 dogs, three roosters and plays circus music 24/7..........

These are third world values that are destroying any and everything they come in contact with

Last week I sent an email to the S.D.U.T. and ask for a list of everyone on the editorial board.
I didn't get a list, but the next day I got banned from posting comments at their site.
Just a coincidence I'm sure.
