If you are in FL you have to show proof of legal status and your DL is only good for the duration of your I-94 or Greencard (depending) True, if you go and apply in person. But as I and several co-workers have found out, if you apply online before your DL expires you aren't require to show proof. The photo used is the one they have on file (digital). Shaved 15 years off of my looks. ;)

I would’ve thought Texas would be next. Actually, I thought they’d be first. Is Arizona the new Texas?

As bad as this is, it is outdated!
In Los Angeles, 95 percent of all outstanding warrants for homicide target
illegal aliens, as do approximately two-thirds of all fugitive felony
warrants.
More than 60 percent of the Hispanic gangs in Southern California
whose membership is in the tens of thousandsis illegal. These gangs
involved withdrug-distribution schemes, extortion, drive-by
assassinations, assaults, and robberies.
In a 2006 study, Deborah Schurman-Kauflin of the Violent Crimes
Institute in Atlanta estimated, conservatively, that from January 1999
through April 2006 approximately 240,000 illegal aliens had committed
about 960,000 sex offenses in the United States.
The fiscal costs of illegal immigration are also very high. According to the
Center for Immigration Studies, in 2002 illegal-alien households imposed,
in aggregate, costs exceeding $26 billion on the federal government while
they paid $16 billion in federal taxes -- thereby creating a net fiscal deficit
of $10.4 billion per year at the federal level, or $2,700 per household.
Among the largest components of this deficit were Medicaid ($2.5 billion);
medical treatment for the uninsured ($2.2 billion); food-assistance
programs such as food stamps, WIC, and free school lunches ($1.9
billion); the federal prison and court systems ($1.6 billion); and federal aid
to schools ($1.4 billion). A major reason why illegal aliens are, on balance,
such a drain on the American Treasury is because approximately 60
percent of them lack a high-school degree.
The National Academy of Sciences has estimated that the average
immigrant without a high-school degree will, over the course of his or her
lifetime, impose a net cost -- above and beyond any taxes he or she pays --
of nearly $100,000 on U.S. taxpayers; this cost does not include the cost
of educating the immigrants children. Based on that figure, the estimated
6 million legal immigrants lacking a high-school diploma and residing in
the U.S. today, will cost taxpayers more than a half trillion dollars over
their lifetimes.

Good! Now let’s see Texas and New Mexico get on board. I wish there was hope for California, but that’s out of the question isn’t it.

David Leopold, president-elect of the American Immigration Lawyers Association: What Arizona has essentially done is tantamount to a police state creation.No Davie. What Arizona has essentially done is take existing federal law and apply it to their state.
There is no federal law (at least not yet) that creates a police state.

It seems preposterous to me that local police cannot make arrests for Federal crimes then turn them over to the appropriate authorities for processing. The alternative is to ramp up the FBI (or worse) as a Federal police force to the equivalent size of state and local law enforcement with street patrols, etc. Bottom line, if a cop catches a bad guy breaking a law that’s on the books, he should make the arrest. We don’t need or want layers of police each enforcing only their own piece of the puzzle.

We have illegals who are taking jobs away from Americans in this bad economy; they are scamming the welfare system and bringing drugs and the violence that goes with it into this country, Jones said. We have to be able to stop it. YES!!!!!

What it will end up doing is sending the illegals to those states that do NOT have an Arizona type law and all those illegals will swamp the state and drag it under. It will take less than a year and those liberal states will be screaming mad and passing the law themselves.

"In fact many states were doing exactly that until somehow Obama stopped them. "I think it was at least as far back as Clinton that illegally started ignoring the immigration laws, and GWB followed right along behind.

Not a chance when NC invites them with open arms. At this time, there is no chance in hell NC will even consider this type of legistlation.
