Gutierrez: Obama Must Act to Ease Arizona's Deportation Pani
It is open season on the Latino community in Arizona. In Phoenix, Tucson, and across the state, people in Latino neighborhoods are afraid to leave their houses, afraid to be apart from their children for even a minute, and afraid to walk the streets because they feel their arrest on suspicion of being an undocumented immigrant could happen at any moment. It is a horrifying glimpse at what our future holds across the country if we continue down the path the Obama administration is leading us on immigration.
This week, we saw how destructive things are getting. The combination of a harsh piece of anti-immigrant legislation advancing in the Arizona legislature and a massive, well-publicized federal enforcement action against a broad human smuggling network has sent the unmistakable message to Arizona's one million immigrants and two million Hispanics: there is a target on your backs and authorities are coming after you.
President Obama, who promised immigration reform but has failed to make it a priority or use his office to make good on his campaign promises, is now able to see what lies ahead. The Obama administration has escalated mass deportation as our singular approach to immigrants and this has combined in Arizona with anti-immigrant hysteria that is festering to the point that state and local elected opportunists are taking matters into their own hands - with complete federal acquiescence.
We are now deporting people at a rate of 1,000 per day -- with nearly half of the arrests in the state of Arizona -- and now the state legislature is on the verge of escalating that pace dramatically. A law (SB 1070) that passed the state House this week and is probably headed to Governor's desk for signature, authorizes state and local police to round up anyone "suspected" of being an undocumented immigrant. As if that weren't bad enough, the law throws in a bounty of $500 in fines and a possible misdemeanor conviction on criminal trespassing if the particular lawman involved happens to guess correctly and the person they arrest cannot prove they are here legally

SOB. The underlying message of this Stuffington Post piece is that the law abiding sector of this country and its institutions should somehow or another (by legislative or administrative action) be obligated to make life for the "shadow people" among us a more comfortable and less stressful experience for the "shadow people"'

Isn't this what consequences are supposed to be about? If you do something good or right there are good consequences and if you do something bad or wrong there are bad consequences. Seems as though the bleeding hearts are doing away with the consequences of bad or unwanted behavior thereby promoting bad behavior! Hmmm, who wudda' thunk it?
Never give up! Never surrender! Never compromise your values!*

04-18-2010, 11:20 AM #6And we have heard nothing from the President.
A man who told the Latino electorate that he saw undocumented immigrants as future citizens, not criminals or deportees, has not lifted a finger. It isn't as if his administration doesn't have a clear immigration policy; they do. It's called deportation only. And they are removing immigrants, mostly Latino, at a faster pace than the Bush administration ever did. All of the rhetoric that a new enforcement strategy targeting serious violent criminals was being adopted has been revealed as empty rhetoric.
Perhaps he is planning on being the first "Hispanic" president and is trying to get his voter base in order, the "Champion of the Cause" so to speak. I believe that his national sweep for immigration meetings were nothing but the campaign trail staged in various Catholic churches.
Calling on the President to change state laws shows out of touch he is with the Constitution.

Obama already acts. We have all noticed how he covers things up as best he can... with the help of his Democrat buddies theatrics. I personally am tired of Democrats acting like illegals are good for the U.S.
