This guy is a real whiner. It’s hard to believe that he is actually some kind of law enforcement officer. I hope he never pulls me over and asks to see my license. I’ll call him a Nazi pig in a heartbeat since he said on the boob tube that asking an illegal for their papers would make him a Nazi. What goes around...

With legal would-be immigrants waiting in an almost endless line, and with everyone - but everyone - screaminng about illegal immigration, everyone’s p*ssing and moaning about the only state in the nation to do something about it.

Very strange.

This whole thing is so asinine! The “Immigration Law” is nothing more than a restatement of the existing federal law and the policies of more than half the states, yet idiots still jump on Arizona for doing something wrong.
