Does Arizona's new immigration law go too far?

A new bill signed into Arizona law by Republican Governor Jan Brewer on Friday makes it a state crime to be an illegal immigrant in the state. While the Obama administration considers its response to the new law, many critics and American citizens are striking out against the bill, urging the federal goverment to refuse illegal immigrants who are turned over to them after being identified by Arizona officers.

What do you think? Does the new Arizona law go too far, or are these measures needed to combat illegal immigration in border states?
