Are you going to boycott Arizona?

I hope you will be safe. I have a feeling I would not.

It sounds like Arizona will become a police State , somewhere Everyone Must have their papers. So be careful.

I don't have a problem with AZ. I am glad the state is standing up for the United States of America. Why do we have to let the rest of the world over take us?

To me the main problem is the racial profiling. I never cared who is here illegally or not. But when the police are given the ok to pick who they will harasses i get upset.Because today it is a Hispanic or a person of any color other than white and then the next group will be the non Christian , like me, And soon Everyone who isn't white, Protestant and male will be harassed. It pi$$es me off when rules are passed that make the U.s. appear more like Nazi Germany than the u.s. we Really are. I can see this rule backfire. All they need is to harass a rich ,foreign tourist because he/she Looks illegal and it will make the international news faster than a speeding bullet. As for being illegal.I think any opwrson who is here 6 months straight And can order something at Mc Donalds in English , Is a citizen to me. so they should be taxed too if you like . But one state harassing one group because they Look illegal is scarry and i rather not give them my money.

The massive illegal population has not effected you so you don't care other than considering it might be a problem that might effect you later in life. What about all those people in Arizona (and California and other border states)that the illegals are effecting right now? They are here illegally which is breaking the law. Why do they get to break the law and citizens do not? And if they are legal, all they have to do is show a card and all is fine. The only ones complaining about this are the illegals! IF american go to any other country, they have to have a VISA and show it when asked and it expires... why should illegals be able to stay indefinately in USA when USA can't in other countries? Why do American have to have a VISA that expries, when illegals don't? Stop and think about how you, as a US citizen, would feel if you and an illegal person applied for the same job and they were hired and you were not. Do you think it was because they are more qualified than you are for a burger flipping job? And there is something about Employers get some kind of kick back from the government on taxes if they hire "minorities".... And they come up here to the country Americans have made and get free help all over the place and will work for less money cause they can afford to because of all the government help they get that American don't, so employers will hire them...and that just leaves the American unemployed. AS far a racial profiling...I have read the law and officers don't want unnecesary problems. They aren't going to be just walking the beat and say "Oh, theres a mexican looking person...he isn't doing anything but walking like us, but we will go hassel him". No, it will be if they are visably doing something wrong, doing something suspicious..by which they'd stop a white person or a black person or a yellow person for the same reason. And again, if they are legal, they will have no problem with being asked for their card. If stopped for a traffic violation...do you take offense to when the officer asks for your license and registration? Do you say they are derogatroialy profiling you cause you drive a red car? Or cause you are a woman drive? No, you show your license, they tell you what you did wrong..if you have a reasonable explanation, they let you go. If not, they give you a ticket. What's the difference between the two? Other than one helps keep our streets safe and the other helps our country be safe. Has 9/11 been forgotten? It most certainly wasn't caused by a legal US Citizen. IF this country is about "equal opportunity" then if I have to be legal...so should everyone else. I am glad that at least SOMEONE is standing up for this country instead of continuing to hand it off to every other country

I agree with you coffeebreak...come in the way you are supposed to and stop sucking off the system that all of us have had to pay into. No ones ever given me a free ride! I go by the law!

It is so easy for me to boycott Arizona. I never wanted to go there. I stopped rooting for the Coyotes, their hockey team, Way before the law. i think there are many who will boycott Arizona and many who will want to go Because of the law. It's America. We all have the freedom to choose. and Arizona has their right to try to enforce this law and we who hate the law have the right to spend our money elsewhere.I love this!

blue65packer - check out Texas Canyon in Arizona...between Benson and Wilcox. It is 8500 feet in elevation and a beautiful peaceful place. Even tho it is on the interstate..it is quiet and serene and the most beautiful blue sky you will ever see! Also the Petrified Forrest and Painted Desert are amazing. There is so much American history in that state - and alot of american indian history.

You are welcome.

I don't think so. I think all of the Grand canyon is is Arizona.washington State's idea sounds great. It make sense.

cmjune76 -you can see some of the Grand Canyon from the Nevada side, but it isn't as accessible as the Arizona side so you can't see as much or the majestic ammenities of it. Sounds like a good idea Washington has!
