So, who has the power?

[ronmcdon]

I have no problem with this law.
(not endorsing or condemning)

Every time I visited Mexico in the past (when passports weren't required) & returned back to the US,
customs would ask me the same.
having grown up overseas & having an accent,
there are often presumptions but none that can't be cleared.
It's not a big deal at all to me & I can appreciate the caution.

they are just taking extra steps to enforce law that's probably already there.
(don't know the specifics in immigration & AZ state law so I'm speculating here).

For better or worse,
I'm also all for respecting the fact that diff states (and counties, cities, etc) are entitled to some degree of legal automony.
As long as the ppl vote it in, it isnt ruled unconsititutional by courts, then it should hold imo.
States shouldn't have to change their laws b/c ppl outside don't like it.

I think ppl are going to be split here not so much by heritage than by political outlook.
You will always get ppl who are generally pro illegal immigrants & those who are not.
Let's not make this into something childish please.
