Judicial Watch filed a new brief on behalf of Arizona asking the 9th Circuit to reverse the injunction granted by U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton.
According to the new brief: Even though the Arizona Legislature has done nothing more than enact a series of law enforcement provisions under its well-recognized police powers to protect its citizens from serious public safety concerns, the district court has denied Arizona law enforcement officers the opportunity to reasonably interpret and apply the provisions in a constitutionally valid manner.On July 28, 2010, pursuant to a lawsuit filed by the Obama administration, a federal court put a hold on four of SB 1070s key provisions until such time as the court determines that they are constitutionally sound. Judicial Watch addressed the legality of all four provisions in its appellant brief.

this is an outrage.
Oh, c’mon. Judicial Watch should be able to file an amicus brief if they want to.
Section 8 USC 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv)(b)(iii)
State and local law enforcement officials have the general power to investigate and arrest violators of federal immigration statutes without prior INS knowledge or approval, as long as they are authorized to do so by state law. There is no extant federal limitation on this authority.
The 1996 immigration control legislation passed by Congress was intended to encourage states and local agencies to participate in the process of enforcing federal immigration laws. Immigration officers and local law enforcement officers may detain an individual for a brief warrantless interrogation where circumstances create a reasonable suspicion that the individual is illegally present in the U.S. Specific facts constituting a reasonable suspicion include evasive, nervous, or erratic behavior; dress or speech indicating foreign citizenship; and presence in an area known to contain a concentration of illegal aliens.
Time to Ignore this rubbish and protect the country.
“Time to Ignore this rubbish and protect the country.”

It is also time to get rid of PC. If a Liberal attacks you tell them where to stick it and make sure the LSM gets it. Let them show it to every American and use their spin.
No one believes them anyway.

LMAO that is the 100% truth.
IMHO Jan Brewer should have ignored that Federal Judge’s ruling and gone ahead with the AZ Immigration law on the grounds that only the SCOTUS has jurisdiction in a suit agains’t a sovereign state. Its clearly spelled out in the Constitution.
What is Holder going to do? Send in Troops? They are all in Afghanistan, Iraq, Korea, Germany etc. Personally I don’t think Obama has the stones to send in troops to a state. They probably wouldn’t go anyway.

She can send in the national guard and declare Marshal law down on the border.
I would like to see more governors assert state sovereignty and just move to nullify unconstitutional laws and rulings from the federal government. Just ignore the feds. Let them take the first step.
Never was PC. Never was MC. Never was any liberal period. I DESPISE THEM.
