Buh-bye, Rick! You’ll protect your dog from a coyote but NOT the LEGAL citizens of Texas from human coyotes?!?!
Kiss your re-election good bye. Yeah, there’s a big block of hispanic and ILLEGAL voters out there—don’t think they make up enough of a percentage to keep your day job though!
What do we know about Bill White’s view on illegal immigration??? (said half-seriously knowing that Houston is a sanctuary city)
Texas Law Enforcement Agencies, Local PD’s, State DPS Troopers tried cranking down years ago only to watch immigration officials turn them out within days of the arrest. State and local agencies can’t “FIX” the problem until federal immigration laws are changed. Feds aren’t sounding like they’re onboard to me. So vote them out in November - elect legislators who back up the boots on the ground.
“Ariz. Gov Signs Bill Revising New Immigration Law
Gov. Jan Brewer on Friday signed a follow-on bill approved by Arizona legislators that make revisions to the state’s sweeping law against illegal immigration — changes she says should quell concerns that the measure will lead to racial profiling.
...
The changes include one strengthening restrictions against using race or ethnicity as the basis for questioning by police and inserts those same restrictions in other parts of the law.
Another change states that immigration-status questions would follow a law enforcement officer’s stopping, detaining or arresting a person while enforcing another law. The earlier law had referred to a “contact” with police.
Another change specifies that possible violations of local civil ordinances can trigger questioning on immigration status.”

So, these revisions lay to rest any concerns I had - which were apparently justified. I think in it’s new form the law is entirely reasonable. :-)
