“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. :-)
Actually it’s called legal CYA for dummies. Anyone that read the law could tell what was being said, this just says the same thing in another way. I don’t think those claifications were needed but apparently they had to be reiterated for the moron press and the troublemakers.
Let us hope that those who seem to make it their business to object to US sovereignty feel as you do.
