If there's a brown-skinned driver - or is that merely a deep tan? - pull him over on suspicion of DWM.

A good idea?

Yes, says Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon, if "we want to turn this city over to the criminals."

It makes no sense to tie up a police officer for hours so he can arrest a landscaper, hotel housekeeper, dishwasher or construction worker while thieves, rapists, robbers and killers run wild.

"They're all criminals!" immigrant haters quickly shriek.

Criminals?

If you rob, you're a robber. If you rape, you're a rapist. If you kill, you're a killer. But if you live in the United States without proper documentation, due to a broken federal system and a politically polarized Congress, you are not a criminal.

You may be a truck driver, laundry attendant or grocery-store clerk, but you are not a criminal.

You may be a hospital worker, neighbor or parent, but you are not a criminal.

You are a person without documentation with certain rights and protections.
I HATE IDIOTS AND LIARS!
Somebody please tell that NUTJOB at Arizona Republic that illegal aliens ARE CRIMINALS.
