Of course not. But then, I'm not a US citizen and I'm *required* to
carry my Green Card on me at all times. US citizens are not required to
do that. As well, it was an agreement that I made in order to be allowed
to live and work here. No such agreement is given by those born here.

We've been through this before and all I can conclude is that you just
don't wish to admit that the Arizona law impinged on the rights of legal
US citizens and residents.

You still don't understand that when you contradict yourself (by your
very own words), you look like a complete idiot. Opening your eyes
wouldn't help you I'm afraid.

You may be thinking for yourself but being an idiot (and a back pedaler),
it doesn't do you much good.

Not being too well informed on that law but trusting your knowledge on
it, what rights of US citizens are being impinged upon?

Not unless Limbaugh or Beck told you what to think.

No one has ever argued that was not a fact, dimwit. Now go ahead and

Wow, you really don't know anything about immigration policy as proven
my your abject ignorance of how immigration law is enforced. If after
arresting someone their immigration status is determined to be
*illegal* then they are either tried and convicted of the crime, serve
the sentence and after the sentence is served are deported. If the
crime is insufficient to warrant incarceration then they are turned
over to ICE for processing, usually leading to deportation.

How do you think Sheriff Dupnik of Pima County has deported so many
illegal aliens. You know the guy that is Sheriff of the country right
on the border. The one that has clearly stated that he has no problem
deporting illegal aliens without the burden of SB1070. You know the
one that would have required him to check the status of every person
and taken his limited resources away from actual enforcement.

So, dumbass, do you imagine in your ignorant world that the police
have no ability to detain illegal immigrants?

Here is your hint: The law gave the police the right to detain a
citizen without a warrant or charges if the citizen could not provide
evidence at that time they were legal residents. That is a violation
of the 4th amendment.

You do realize that deportations are up 10% this year due to tougher
enforcement.

Crime along the boarder is down again this year.

Funny how that never makes it into wingnut world.

Gutted would be "unenforcable".

Unless in your world the inability to enforce is just like
enforcement?
