So if this law is shut down, does that mean that state and local cops are prohibited from arresting ANYONE that breaks a federal law?

The Democrats and Republicans that are pro illegal are trying to make it a racial issue, but it is really geographic: most illegals are Mexican because Mexico is not separated from the U.S. by an ocean. Or much else for that matter. If it were a nation of white mongrels (thank you Mr. President), I would be just as ticked off and want them out just as badly.

In answers to all your questions above, NH-Jim….he’ll get a court appointed attorney, and in spite of the fact that a citizen of the U.S. has died at his hands, he’ll end up getting off for time served (how does a year sound?)…but will he be deported? That depends on whether or not his wife petitions family court saying what a hardship it would be for her and her kids if he were to be deported. AND, even if he does get deported after receiving no punishment for killing your wife and/or daughter, he’ll be right back up here so fast your head will spin.

Soo, this is a law that reiterates a law saying it is illegal to be here illegally. And the judge decides this is a racial issue. What is this, a Netflix commercial?

I am beginning that the left harbors those who are afraid to live up to the high standard of the Constitution.

In the spirit of lawlessness, maybe we should all pick a day in which we celebrate a law-free day! Surely “equal protection” would justify us all a free pass while we simply break local and state laws- nothing as serious as coming here illegally, conspiring with a spouse or coyote to deliver an anchor baby on American soil with intent to exploit federal gratuities… And look at Charles Wrangell- don’t make an example out of me until all of these politicos have passed a very strenuous “stress-test” on their ethical obligations before they’re ever qualified in exercising their authority over us…

The US needs to make it less attractive for people from other countries to come here illegally. Get ride of all the darn freebies & services that they receive from the government. Put massive fines in place for any company caught paying an illegal immigrant for work. Then maybe they would not want to come here illegally, but they would get in line like everyone else.

Meanwhile, the body count continues to rise.
Why? Well, according to the NY Times, it’s our fault and the heat-wave’s fault.
The Arizona law is but a day old (and parts blocked by Federal Judge Bolton), but the Times, James McKinley states (July 28, ’10) “But the law has not kept the immigrants from trying to cross hundreds of miles of desert on foot in record-breaking heat. The bodies of 57 border crossers have been brought in during July so far… “These tougher enforcement measures have pushed smugglers and illegal immigrants to take their chances on isolated trails through the deserts and mountains of southern Arizona, where they must sometimes walk for three or four days before reaching a road…Human rights groups say it is the government’s sustained crackdown on human smuggling that has led to more deaths.”
In the words of our President, “Plug the damn hole”

So when the time comes that I am driving down the road with my family and an illegal alien (I refuse to use the term immigrant in this case) crashes into my car killing my wife or daughter, the police will not be able to demand the legal residency status of the perpetrator. For this person did not take the required safe driving courses required by all of us legal citizens in every state. For this person did not pass the driving tests required by every state to have a legal right to drive on public roadways. For this person did not have a legal, state-issued operators license on his/her person at the time of the crash. Will additional charges be applied to this person along with vehicular manslaughter, failure to carry operators license, traffic infractions….? Huh, Judge Bolton?
And, I am left to burying my loved one….

I don’t think that all illegal aliens want to become citizens. Then they
will have to share their wealth.

I don’t understand why the requirement for aliens to carry registration papers is so onerous. Green card holders are currently required to carry their green cards at all times. I have had to provide proof of my citizenship to get jobs, either a birth certificate or current passport.

Amnesty is not the answer. When will some liberal come up with the idea that only giving amnesty to Mexicans is somehow racist, and the doors will have to be thrown open to the rest of the world to be “fair”.

Despite her barely concealed glee, Couric reported to tonight that there are some 21 (?) states currently drafting legislation designed to get a handle on illegals. One will eventually set an ironclad precedent, and then we can get to work securing the border. This action by the judge will re energize the TEA party and the rest of the majority of Americans that want this problem dealt with. Ongoing analysis shows that he ruling is flawed, and this is just a ploy to buy time (and votes) for the next elections.

The welcome mat is out for immigrants, but the path is through legal means. Go get in line and wait your turn.
