Last week Shrillary let the cat out of the bag when she said the the Obama administration is building a case against Arizona over it's illegal immigration laws. I found this excerpt from a similar law in Missouri:
28.824. All law enforcement officers shall inquire into the citizenship and immigration status of any person under arrest for a violation of any state law or municipal ordinance, regardless of the person's national origin, ethnicity, or race. In all such cases where a person indicates
that he or she is not a citizen or national of the United States, the law enforcement agent shall verify with the federal government whether the alien is lawfully or unlawfully present in the United States, under 8 U.S.C. 1373(c). If the alien is verified to be unlawfully present in the United States, the law enforcement officer shall cooperate with any request by federal immigration authorities to detain the alien or transfer the alien to the custody of the federal government."
This law as passed in Missouri in 2008 with 83% of the voters approving. Why is Obama only going after Arizona?|||Arizona's law is not racial profiling. That is clear to him and to anyone who has actually read the law.
Obama has another objective.
Prevent Arizona and all states from enforcing the immigration laws. He is refusing to do his sworn duty and he is not enforcing the law. He is NOT being a President.
Obama has one objective. Create crisis after crisis. He WANTS immigration to become a huge crisis. That way he will get to push through the legislation He wants and get his end goal.
His goal is to fling open our borders so we can be "peacefully" invaded and the American society will be destroyed.
He gets to call for a new Constitution that can accommodate the new American society and assure an orderly society under the control of the President.
It is just another part of the mantra of the obama Administration: Never let a Crisis go to waste.
They create one crisis after another.
This will continue for as long as he is in the White House. Just as he is blocking the cleanup of the oil leak, he is blocking the enforcing of immigration laws.
Enforcing the law IS the JOB of the President. Arizona would not need their new law if Obama would only do his job.
We do not have a President. We have a crisis creator and his objective is CHANGE!
That change is nefarious in nature.|||OH NO!! Obama thinks the federal government should create immigration legislation. Doesn鈥檛 he know that the Supreme Court has ruled that the Congressional power to regulate naturalization, in Article 1, Section 8, of the U.S. Constitution States includes the power to regulate immigration.
LET鈥橲 IMPEACH HIM!!
Article 1 - The Legislative Branch
Section 8 - Powers of Congress
To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization,|||Obama shouldn't forget the real Americans.
The more he goes after AZ, the more he digs himself in a hole. His policies of taxing working Americans and feeding the poor isn't working.|||Because the Arizona law is an obvious violation of Article I, Section 8 of the United States Constitution, which gives the Federal Congress exclusive authority to regulate immigration and naturalization.|||I see none of the liberals here are going to answer your question but it is interesting. My thoughts are that Arizona has embarassed Obama and highlighted his intentions to give illegal amnesty.|||So that they can make an example out of Arizona, let more illegals in, who will vote for them and Obama can keep his power.
Rule 1: All those with power are afraid to lose it - no matter who they are.|||Sweet! Other states do have smart laws on the books!
Now if we could only get them to enforce them!|||Votes|||To take our attention/minds off more pressing issues.|||Laws are very tricky things, you may have noticed the phrase, "of any person under arrest for a violation of any state law or municipal ordinance." and "in all such cases (under arrest for violation etc) where a person indicates that he or she is not a citizen"
So before your papers are checked, you need to be 'under arrest'. Arrest first check later.
Which is fairly standard, if you commit a crime you lose your right to privacy. They can investigate all they want.
As I understand it the AZ is different. They don't have to be under arrest to have to show papers. It makes a difference.
Other states do have laws that cover illegals, and they aren't in violation of the Federal laws.|||Because the DOJ headed up by Eric "defends the terrorists"Holder, and operating under order from Barack Hussein "I hate America" 0bama, hate the laws and regulations set forth for immigrating into our land as well as they seem to loath Republicans and other free thinkers who wish to uphold the laws that they have failed to enforce.You see the illegalcrats know that their days are numbered, unless they circumvent the laws of the land and allow illegals access to our country and of course register them as democrats|||What we should insist upon is that all laws must be enforced or repealed. There are literally thousands of laws on the books that are not enforced. That is ridiculous. This is a nation of laws. Laws should never be ignored. If they are no longer required repeal them. If they are inadequate, modify them. If they exist enforce them. Enforce them vigorously. Enforce them equally.
What we are doing with immigration laws is enforcing them selectively. That is discriminatory and should never be allowed. There are lots of laws that exist on both State and Federal books. Murder, Robbery, Arson etc. One may prosecute on either level. But imagine the dilemma if the Federal Government could dictate the law and prohibit the States from doing so, then fail to enforce it. The fact that there is a Federal Law does not prohibit States from passing a similar one or even a more effective or stringent one.
I think that States should start passing laws that make hiring illegal immigrants punishable by a fine of $20k per offense. They should start passing laws that make it illegal to rent or sell housing to anyone who is not able to prove they are here legally.
May I suggest a new protest slogan? POWER (back) TO THE PEOPLE!

I need to know where there are checkpoints between arizona and california, any and all ways to go through please.|||I have lived back and forth in AZ and southern Cali the past 3 years, so I do a lot of driving. A couple years ago I lived in 29 Palms, which is off the I-10 W on your way to LA. The only checkpoint is at the AZ/CA border and half the time it's closed, so you just drive right on through. Currently I live in San Diego which you take the I-8 W. There are TONS!!!! The first one is at the AZ/CA border, again 1/2 the time it's closed. Then they just set one up between Yuma and El Centro, then there's another one between El Centro and Alpine. And occassionally they'll sneak another temporary one in there somewhere. So going between San Diego and Phx there are usually 3-4 stops.|||There is a check point coming in Arizona off of the I-8. There is one in Serria Vista, One in Casa Grande. Half the time the aren't even staffed. Look at a map to get the roads going in and out of Arizona there are too many to list.
clearly Arizona is racist by going not wanting illegals. How racist of you Arizona.|||You should explain to the dead rancher's family in AZ how illegal aliens are helpful.|||As a Latino democrat who voted for Obama, (and a Gay American), I recently heard about Arizona's new stringent anti-immigration law. I support it. Bravo to Arizona!
The fact is, illegal aliens have “more” rights than gay people in our country. Illegal aliens can go and see their opposite sex partners in hospitals, and up until a couple of weeks ago, same sex couples would have been continually barred from seeing one another. Illegal aliens can marry an American citizen, gay people cannot marry in most states in our country. Illegal aliens can march on Washington and request some type of amnesty from a president who supports selective amnesty, gay people can march on Washington, but their president does not support same sex marriage.
Illegal aliens broke the law entering our country and are getting free health care, free housing, and food stamps. Their anchor babies born here give them these benefits automatically and there is nothing to stop them from bearing more children in order to convince a judge to let them stay in our country. On the other hand, many states do not allow gay Americans to adopt children.
Illegal aliens should all be deported now; their anchor babies can return when they turn 18 years of age. We also need to end birthright citizenship, and deny illegals access to social services. Americans are ultimately left to pick up the bill for the billions in services that they receive for free courtesy of the taxpayers all the while illegal aliens pay nothing into the system (from which they benefit) and then send mostly all their earned money back to Mexico to help our their country and not ours.
As a gay American, the notion of amnesty for these illegal aliens, aggravates me knowing that right now they have more rights than I do. Citizens who pay taxes into the system, regardless of sexual orientation, should come first before illegal aliens who take what they want from the system and leave struggling Americans paying their bill.|||When I lived in yuma Az, an illegal came over the boarder and slaughtered an entire family, who just so happened to be of mexican descent. He slipped back over the boarder and was never caught.
Yes Arizona is Racist. Racist against criminals and if you live here you should be grateful. If your not grateful, LEAVE!|||Most illegals their are from Mexico, its right there. If you can't admit that then you can't admit that they are mexican because you would be "racist" is stupid. Apparantly overconcerned people do not know that. because if they did it would be racist.|||sorry-----they have been arresting and deporting illegals now for over a year and a half with strict oversight-----38,000 illegals detained;/jailed/and or deported so far-----lol-----the race card is so full of snot holes it dont even hold water any more-----americans are fed up with the selfrighteous, hateful attutudes of those on our soil-----friggin ingrates.|||If you're the preponderance of illegals that are coming into the United States are of Mexican descent, then they are criminal, they are illegal, they should be deported. And in fact we should criminally profile, not racially profile."|||dont you have to be american to count for civil rights anyways? plus nothing is illigal for asking for someones papers, they spread gang violence and drugs in america and since this big drug problem has risen south of the border we should crack down|||How could someone think Arizona's displeasure with illegals is racism?
Clearly Arizona is smart by not wanting illegals. How smart of you Arizona.|||The LAW specifies
people who are in AMERICA illegally
THINK PEOPLE!
If you are a citizen, you have nothing to worry about!
Clearly
The emperor is NAKED!|||wow. i think the true colors showed when a reporter asked the arizona gov. "what does and illegal immigrant look like?"|||Because it's not.
Illegal people are here illegally. People who don't understand that don't understand facts.|||Deport your illegal self.|||...Are you being sarcastic? I can't tell. But I really hope you are.|||Illegal is not a race.|||That is so stupid. Punishing law breakers has nothing to do with racism. Stop playing the race card|||Immigration is good for the financial health of Social Security because more workers mean more tax revenue. Illegal immigration, it turns out, is even better than legal immigration. In the fine print of the 2008 annual report on Social Security, released last week, the program’s trustees noted that growing numbers of “other than legal” workers are expected to bolster the program over the coming decades.
One reason is that many undocumented workers pay taxes during their work lives but don’t collect benefits later. Another is that undocumented workers are entering the United States at ever younger ages and are expected to have more children while they’re here than if they arrived at later ages. The result is a substantial increase in the number of working-age people paying taxes, but a relatively smaller increase in the number of retirees who receive benefits — a double boon to Social Security’s bottom line.
We’re not talking chump change. According to the report, the taxes paid by other-than-legal immigrants will close 15 percent of the system’s projected long-term deficit. That’s equivalent to raising the payroll tax by 0.3 percentage points, starting today.
That is not to suggest that illegal immigration is a legitimate fix to Social Security’s problems. It is another reminder, however, of the nation’s complex relationship with undocumented workers. Would the people who want to deport all undocumented workers be willing to make up the difference and pay the taxes that the undocumented are currently paying?
It is also a reminder of Social Security’s dynamism. As society and the economy evolve, so does the system, responding not only to changes in immigration and fertility, but also in wage growth and other variables. As such, it is adaptable to the 21st century, if only the political will can be found to champion the necessary changes. Those include modest tax increases and moderate benefit cuts that could be phased in over decades — provided the country gets started soon.|||Of course it's profiling! I've been in America illegally for years and no one looks at me twice because I am white and speak perfect english. Being white collar protects me, otherwise I would have been deported years ago.
I don't get what the big controversy is. People who are here illegally are not suppose to be here. It's that simple. I hear that LA is boycotting Arizona. Give me a break.|||Most of the people who are against it have simply not read the Arizona law in question, to be honest. And they are making assumptions based on what they are being told by the press on what it will allow or not allow.
To those people thinking that it will allow a police officer to just walk up to someone and demand their "papers", it does not allow for that at all. It allows an officer who is investigating a different crime, and has suspicion that a person involved may be here illegally, to request identification/proof of who the person is... The really funny thing is that the police ALREADY have the right to do that in all 50 states. (And they do request information to verify who you are, even for a speeding ticket. And anyone who refuses to provide identification to an officer in the case of a crime can and will be taken into the police station at the very least untill the officer can get verification of identity.)
Most of the people objecting to the law are talking about the "possibility" of police officers abusing it to harass people based on race... Well I have news for you, the officers that would do that kind of junk already do, this law will NOT give them anymore power/right/excuse than they already have to do so.|||You believe that American citizens should be stopped and asked to 'show their papers' to prove they are American citizens?|||To heck with L . A . Let the bleeding heart liberals who support illegal immigration , take the illegals into their own homes , at their own expense .|||they are IGNORANT and do not understand the law! I would EXPECT the police to be asking for proof of citizenship if you're involved in a crime! they wouldn't be doing their jobs if they didn't! That should be a NATION WIDE POLICY! It's not like they are hassling you because you LOOK spanish! People are so damn DUMB it's unbelievable!|||Well, other than that the law is unAmerican, unConstitutional and gives the police way too much power at a time when they have arguably too much power than they should in a free society, not a great deal. It's a God-given human right to be a bigot, and to use the full power of the State to crack down on Enemies of the State like that. What I particularly enjoy is people getting all upset because other people are Treating Them Unfairly just because they're treating Hispanics unfairly. It's just so unfair!|||Not only that but Mr. Obama is allying himself with Presidente Calderon of Mexico in defiance of Arizona's seeking to slow down the invasion that is taking place. Arizona should stand firm. Mr. Obama is seeking to destroy the states and surrender our sovereignty to the enemy financier that hired him.|||That's because those people know that the law is only going to target certain people, namely those who look like they could be Mexican while those who don't look Mexican will be left alone. The fact of the matter is that illegal aliens come in all races and the only way to apply that fairly is to stop everybody, not just those with brown skin and who speak with an accent.|||no its not that simple most illegal people are in the US for necessity, not because they want to.
They have a family to feed and in some places there are no jobs or they get payed almost nothing. I bet you would do the same thing if you were in there situation, or were you rather see your little kids die of hunger.
Plus is not easy getting a passport or visa
it takes many years and thousands of dollars. Maybe you should do a little
research yourself of the dangers that immigrant have to passed to get to the US.|||LA is probably boycotting Arizona cause there are millions of illegals bedding down there eating their burritos and tacos.|||The Mexicans, of course, are against what Arizona is doing. But most Americans, especially young Americans, who are against what Arizona is doing just don't understand that the massive flow of illegal Mexican immigrants is an invasion force which is bent on overpopulating the American southwest with Mexicans and reclaiming it for Mexico. They believe that the American southwest was stolen from Mexico and they intend to overpopulate it with Mexicans and cede it back to Mexico. Check this out:

In American History I have to write an essay about at least 3 arguments for Arizona in the court case Miranda v. Arizona. I have these:
1) It wasn't the state's job to tell Miranda his rights.
2)He was arrested before, he should've known his rights during that case.
3)All Americans should know their rights.|||Hello there,
The Miranda case really focuses on the reach of the 5th Amendment. Just when under the 5th does a person have the right consult with an attorney. What if that person cannot afford an attorney. When under the 5th does a person have the right to refuse to answer questions from investigators. Under what conditions can what a person says be used against them. Under the 5th Amendment does the government need to remind the person of those rights? If so, under what situations.
All of those are aspects of the 5th Amendment's right against self incrimination that had to be more fully defined and were so under the Miranda decison.
Later,
Hello again,
I apologize. I misinterpreted your question. I gave you the issues facing the court. You wanted the issues that the State of Arizona would raise to support its case.
Arizona could argue that the defendant's confession was voluntary. He was not tortured. He was not deprived. He was not subjected to repeated interrogations over an extended period of time. The legal standard at the time of the defendant confessed to the crime is: was the confession voluntary under the totality of the circumstances. The defendant here wants a new standard created and applied to him retroactively. He wants his confession thrown out even though the police obtained it in accordance with the requirements of the 5th and 14th Amendments as they existed at that time. He wants us to hold the police to a new standard and thus overturn his conviction, even though the police acted in accordance with the legal standards. There is no prescendent for his position. The Constitional standard for whether a confession is voluntary is the due process clause of the 14th Amendment.
The confession that the defendant signed says at the begining that he is aware of his right against self incrimination and that he voluntarily waives that right. There is no evidence that any form of coercion was used to force the defendant to sign that confession which stated he was waiving his right against self incrimination.
The State of Arizona could argue that the defendant was arrested in the morning hours and brought to the police station. There the victim of the rape identified him from a line up. He was then taken by 2 police officers to a separate room to be questioned. At first he denied his guilt. But shortly after, he orally confessed to the crime and explained it in detail. He then wrote a hand written confession and signed a brief statement. All of this was done in about 2 hours time without any threats, force or promises. All of that ocurred in a brief period of time during light hours. There is nothing in the facts or circumstances to indicate that his confession was anything but voluntary.
Arizona could argue that no where in the Constitution does it say that a person has the right to an attorney during any part of the police investigation. The 6th Amendment provides for legal counsel at trial. The issue here is not an attorney present during trial, but rather an attorney present in the police station. There is no legal precedent for requiring that an attorney be present during any part of a police investigation. The argument that the questioning is a critical aspect has no legal precedent. Is questioning by the police any less of a critical aspect than questioning during the grand jury investigation. There is no right to an attorney during the questioning before the grand jury. The established legal standard is that if an defendant cannot afford an attorney he will be provided one by the Court during his trial.|||You have the right to remain silent, anything that you say may be used against you in a court of law, you have the right to talk to a lawyer and have him/her present with you while you are being questioned, if you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed to represent you before any questioning if you wish. These words have become a commonplace in law enforcement across the United States.

I am thinking of going on vacation/holiday to Phoenix Arizona in March for about a week. Is this a suitable city for a break for about a week ? Is there good tourist facilities ?

7) Phoenix Children's Museum
8) Camelback Mountain
9) Phoenix Art Museum
10) Chase Field
11) Hole in the Rock|||We vacation the sedona/canyon area frequently. If your like my wife & don't like to change hotels frequently then Flagstaff is the best place to stay. Not only some nice hotels (Embassy & Holiday Express) but being a college town it has a lot of night life compared to the "Ho-Hum" towns of Sedona & Williams. Because Flag is centrally located to the best Az has to offer you are no more than an hour or so to Grand Canyon, Sedona, The Meteor Crater, The Petrified Forest(2hr) Glen Oak Canyon & the Dinosaur Footprints in the lava flows just outside Cameron. In Flag is the Snow bowl & Lowell Observatory (Nightly Public Viewings). be very careful renting rooms at the small chains at far end of town by the Railroad tracks as they are dirty & have drug & prostitution problems.
If you don't mind moving about a bit you would be much better off time wise to stay in Sedona & either at or near Grand Canyon. There is a small town just outside the Park called Tusayan. The Grand Hotel is nice so is The Holiday Express, but don't be surprised if the city is booked solid.
As for Phoenix... The light rail goes by The Botanical Garden & The Heard Museum. Don't know how you are about heights, but there are some really good hot air balloon rides nearby. as for shopping you have the Arizona Mills Shopping mall & Scottsdale is not to far. If rour looking for a good restaurant "Texas Roadhouse" has the best ribs around.|||YESYESYESYESYES! Phoenix is awesome! Especially because it's March, so it won't be too hot.

If a 17 year old leaves home from California to Arizona and her parents know she is going there but don't want her to.

And anyone that you were traveling with could be arrested for kidnapping (especially if you cross state lines).
By law: you aren't old enough to make that choice. The police would treat it with the same vigor and seriousness that they would treat any other missing child. That you are crossing state lines just means that the Feds will also be involved. The person you are living with could still be arrested for "Harboring a Runaway"... typically a misdemeanor, but since the Feds are involved it could be upped to a felony. You also can't just "go to school". You would need to be enrolled in the school system by a parent or guardian.
Just wait until you turn 18 and go live where you want.|||uhm, idk, if your parents went to the police and told them that you're missing and went to arizona, then maybe they would contact arizona police and have them search for you or something. but then again .. i don't know what the california laws are regarding legal adult or not. in rhode island, our parents have complete control over us untill the day we turn 18. i don't know if it's like that in california. if so, then yeah, you'd have arizona police looking for you. but if you're aloud to leave state at 17 completely on your own, then you should be good !|||until you are 18 your parents have the responsibilty of taking care of you,,,,,
yes they can have you arrested for running away,,|||As long as the kid didn't break any laws the police would do nothing. Leaving home without permission is not a crime.

My parents are thinking about moving to Arizona after their retirement. They been working and paying social security benefits in California for the last few decades. Now they're trying to find out if there's any difference in retirement benefits between California or Arizona. I heard that social security benefit based solely on the amount you contributed during your working life, not on where you live when you retire. Is that true? Is there any other potential benefit for retiring in California (other than weather or higher living cost)? Thank you very much.|||NO|||No - they can live anywhere in the world and collect the same social security retirement payments.
Some states, such as Florida, don't have a state income tax. For that reason, many people retire there. If your parents expect to have taxable retirement income, they should keep the income tax laws in mind in picking a place to retire.|||Social Security is a federal program and does not vary from state to state. Only unemplyment and state disability programs are governed by the state of your residence.|||Your assumption is correct. Social security is a Federal program, not a state program. The amount received is based on your average earnings during your active career.
California does have Medi-Cal insurance which in some cases supplements MediCare. Depending on the area to which they relocate, cost of living in AZ can be significantly lower; however, utility bills may be substantially higher.
The AARP has resources which might be of assistance, or a financial planner may be best able to help your folks look at the different options and associated costs/benefits.
Good luck!

Why doesn't he take a position on the law his state passed on immigration?|||Please clarify - which side of his mouth was McCain speaking from?
Yes, he blames the federal government for not doing enough to seal the borders.

I will be moving to Tucson, Arizona (The southeast side) in September. What is the average cost in utilities for a small 2/3 bedroom house? There will be 2 adults and a toddler. Hopefully we can use a fan to beat the heat moreso than the air. Trying to put together a budget.
Thanks!|||It all depends on how low you put the thermostat and what kind of cooling system you have. The geneal rule of thumb is that an evaperative cooler uses about 1/4 of the energy as an A/C unit. I used to be able to run my evap cooler half of the day in a small but drafty 1920s house for about $40 per month. Since moving to a larger and more energy efficient house with A/C, my bill was closer to $100 but I also keep the thermostat in the low to mid 80s all day.
Figure for most average size houses you are looking at $75-$100 per month. If you have a historic house then the cost will probably be $25-$50 higher due to the air leaks and construction materials used.

They should have salary ranges for each county, and then they break them up according to if you have a BA or an MA and what step you are at. If you are brand new with a BA, you will be the lowest salary on that list.

Arizona has places with year nice weather year round almost never reaching above 90 in the pine and forest areas. While California has the beach to cool off there are plenty of pools in AZ.
Arizona has many stories. Many about the old west in fact one of the most famous is the legend of the lost Dutchman burying and the lost gold mind. Another tale is of a man who escaped a concentration camp during WWII thought that one is not as know.
If you enjoy hiking there are many places to get your fill.One of the most common being Camel-back mountain were many experience the breathtaking view over the city.
The school system in Arizona is getting steadily better and has many excelling schools|||Arizona did hold the advantage over California until the housing bubble burst. Arizona had low taxes, low unemployment and affordable housing. Problem was, that construction in California but especially in Arizona overbuilt housing to try and meet the hungry demand with house flippers and easy credit.
Now Arizona's economy will be stuck for awhile but Phoenix homes are still relatively cheap.
When it comes to the landscape, California does pretty well because there are mountains, beaches, deserts and prime vineyard acreage. Arizona has the dry, blistering hot Sonoran Desert but beautiful Grand Canyon.|||Arizona: positive : there are fewer Californians there than in California : >

Where in Arizona can i go to buy a desert tortoise, the ones that eventually grow to be fairly large as in 3ft tall, not the tiny little turtles. I have no idea where to even begin on how to go about getting one.|||Unfortunatly, the Desert Tortoise does not get that big. You may be thinking of the galapagos tortoise, they can reach up to 500lbs! big Tortoise! And those, along with other large tortoises, require an Exotic reptiles lisence to own. Desert Tortioses are endangered, and thus illegal to own. California allows you to apply for a permit through the department of fish and game, but in Arizona, I believe it is just plain illegal.
The sulcata tortoise can grow up to 3 feet across, and over 200lbs. These ARE legal to own, however require a very large habitat. The best place to get a large variety of turtles and tortoises is to visit a reptile expo. Pick up a Reptiles Magazine from your local pet store, in the back it has a list of all reptile expos and shows in your area.
Also, visit www.petfinder.com and look for local reptile rescues in your area, and see if you can adopt one, adopting is always best!

- I have been admitted into the Computer Engineering program at Arizona State University and am curious on how difficult the program will be for me
- I am around B average student and have gone to private school my entire high school life.|||The trouble with estimating this kind of "hardness" is that there is no recognised scale by which it can be measured. This is probably because of the highly subjective nature of "difficulty". I nevertheless attempt to quantify it as follows:
On a mental hardness scale of 0 to 10 with 0 = watching TV, eating, drinking & sleeping as you want and 10 = Stephen Hawking, studying engineering rates around 4-5 at B.S. level, maybe 6 at honours or MS level.
On a physical hardness scale of 0 to 10 with 0 = watching TV, eating, drinking & sleeping as you want and 10 = Reinhold Messner, it scores around 3, the main physical difficulty being lack of sleep.
1. How many people IN FAVOR of the Arizona Immigration bill actually know how the "legal immigration system" works for Central American countries like Mexico?
2. Have you ever seen the movie, "A Day Without a Mexican"?
3. What do you think would happen to the U.S. economy and unemployment rate if all illegal immigrants were extradited from the country?
4. Should we not be targeting employers hiring illegal workers?
5. Any other reasonable thoughts?|||My wife is an immigrant and we know and understand the immigration process. I do understand the quota system as it apportions out immigration among the verious countries in a fair manner. Without the quote system the resdidents form one country (like Mexico) would take all of the slots - thus depriving people from other countries the chance to come here.
I have not see that movie. And I am not going to bother to. We have enough urban and rural poor to take the entry level jobs vacated by illegals who are sent home.
Expulsion of illegal immigrants will have no real long term effects on our economy. As I stated earlier - we have a surplus of urban and rural poor who need entry level jobs in order to gain a foothold in the workforce.
And I agree that part of the solution would be to create a system of fines where an employer pays $10,000 for every illegal on the payroll. And institute a bounty sysrtem where the perosn who reported that employer gets 10% of the fines collected.
Another thing we need to do is place a tax on wire transfers to the countries where most of the illegal immigrants come from. This tax will apply to any transfer of money that was not related to the sale of a good or service.
Something else would be to change the way our schools are funded. Instead of getting paid based on the number of students - they only get paid for the number of students who are legally in this country. If an illegal wants free education - let his home country pay for it.
Next - would be to require legal status checks made for anybody getting unemployment, welfare, food stamps or any other form of public charity. If they aren't here legally - then they should not be getting our tax dollars.
My wife came here and got her citizenship by obeying the rules. If you grant amnesty, then you will be treating her just like the people who demonstrated that they have no respecrt for our culture or our laws.|||"Why can't foreigners trespass in search for something better like our ancestors did?"

For example, you need a plumber, before this illegal aliens has arrived here in America.
You need to call a licensed plumber and need to pay like $200 to $300, to fix it.
But today, if you need a plumber, go outside the streets, get 1 Mexican standing in the corner of the street, let him do the plumbing, pay him $40 and your problem is solved.

but is their something wrong with them coming into this country legally???..|||1. From everything I've heard, it's a bunch of hoops to jump through.
2. No.
3. If all illegals suddenly disappeared, the unemployment rate would drop to near zero due to all the sudden work now available. Yes, there'd be some shocks to the system too. But of course, that is fantasy. In reality, the best we could do is maybe deport 10% of the illegals each year, and there would be no sudden shock to the system.
4. Sure, we should be targeting employers TOO. And that is in the new AZ law. That doesn't mean we limit enforcement or limit controlling our borders.
5. Yes. Read the AZ law. In a nutshell, here's how it works. A cop stops you for normal things cops stop you for. Traffic violation, jaywalking, etc. They then ask for an ID. THIS IS EXACTLY HOW IT WORKS EVERYWHERE IN THE USA. Since you have to proof US citizenship or legal residency to get a driver's license or state ID, if you can produce it, that's the end of the story. If you can't, a reasonable suspicion is raised. Maybe this person doesn't have an ID because they aren't eligible for one. It's really as simple as that.|||is it ones upon a time in mexico
Is there anyone out there that has any insight going on with the running back position in Arizona? Is Wells or Hightower gonna start come week? Wells looked pretty good with the second team offense in their last preseason game? Need some fantasy help!|||Wells will be the starter. Not sure if it will be week 1 since he has been injured, but not far into the season he will be the starter if not week 1.|||Hightower is listed in the team's official depth chart as the starter, with Wells as the #2 RB. I don't expect that to change. Just because a second string RB looks good against a 2nd string defense doesn't mean he's ready to be on the first team offense against a first team defense. He will see some action and may be a serviceable #3 or 4 RB on your team. And, he certainly will see an increased role as the season progresses, possibly taking the starting role from Hightower in the next several weeks.|||I bet Hightower will start in week 1, but Wells will work his way in and probably be starting by week 3, if not sooner.

My 16 year old sister did a stupid thing ang got pregnant with her 17 year old boyfriend. She wants to continue her life like normal and have an abortion. My opinion is that she take responsibility for the situation she got herself into, but I support my sister in her feelings. She doesn't want our parents to know about it and she just wants to get past this. What are the laws regarding minors and are there any clinics in Arizona that don't talk to parents? Thanks.|||You really expect us to believe a sixteen year old is pregnant with a 17 year old baby? This is impossible.
Send your sister to Planned Parenthood. Bless you for supporting her right to choose.|||People who have never experienced the trauma of abortion have no ideal what the lifelong consequences of this decision are. Unfortunately I did 25 years ago with a woman I was in love with. She was worried what her parents would say and I was young & motivated. I regret that decision to this day. He or she would be 25 years old and might have had grandkids for us. Blonde, redhead, brunette...blue eyes, green eyes... who knows now. I wish I did. Parents will find out eventually and pray they understand and help her thru this. Adoption is always a grand option for those not ready for parenting. Lots of couples wanting to be loving parents that can't conceive thier own baby.|||Hey,
Has your sister thought about adoption? Whether she decides to keep the baby or let him/her grow up with another family, please, for your sister's sake don't encourage her to get an abortion. I've met sooo many women who regret their abortions years, and even decades later and don't want anyone to have to go through that pain.
In addition, I don't know how far along your sister is, but even at a few weeks your niece or nephew has a beating heart, tiny little hands, legs, etc. 鈥?at only 7 weeks babies have been known to begin sucking their thumbs! Abortion will (painfully) kill this child, so please discourage your sister from going through with the abortion. (They're pretty gruesome, but if you've never seen what happens to the baby during an abortion I recommend Googling abortion pictures.)
I know talking to parents may be really hard for your sister, but they'll be able to help her the most. At least from my own experience, I've found that dreading talking to parents is usually far worse than the reaction after the fact.
I recommend either your sister or you check out www.optionline.org, people facing unplanned pregnancies can call or chat with them 24/7, and they can even help you find a local pregnancy resource center.
Please, for your sister's sake as well as your niece or nephew's sake, please encourage your sister not to get an abortion.
Hope this helps,

Weather is pretty unpredictable here so it could be sunny one day and have a huge storm the next. I live in Phoenix now and the past few weeks there's been some pretty bad dust storms. I'm not sure if it has been affecting scottsdale too. well.. good luck! ;)|||they only have dirt storms. in order to have real storms a place needs to have "weather" not just constant heat. a "monsoon" there is like a spring shower anywhere else. and a slight sprinkle will cause traffic accidents since rain is so rare. you arent likely to get any weather there.

There is an obvious list of conditions that marijuana will treat, but I need something that will work without proof (medical documentation/tests).

You can get a medical marijuana card in Arizona if you can follow instruction mentioned below:
Find a Medical Marijuana Doctor near by your area. Get your doctor to write a statement and/or prescription that he recommends medical marijuana to treat your ailment. If your doctor will not give you a statement contact the THC Foundation, they have several medical cannabis clubs in different states that support medical marijuana and will be able to help you either find a doctor, or get your statement from your doctor. Get the documentation done. With proper documentation you can get a Medical Marijuana Card.|||Like I said before, you cannot just think up a diagnosis, fake those symptoms, and get a mmj card in AZ. You must have 12 months of medical records to get certified. It is ppl who try to work their way around the system who will ruin it for truly qualified individuals. AZ mmj statute is on point and iron clad.
Cali's mmj statute is vague and criminal enterprises are taking over the dispensary system in Cali. How can the DOJ define state law if that statute is "void for vagueness."?
I get disgusted by well people who are trying to buck the system. If you have no solid diagnosis backed up by 12 months of medical records, you will not be approved in AZ for the mmj program; bottom line.|||In Colorado a Dr. has to document the reason.

Where in Arizona can i go to buy a desert tortoise, the ones that eventually grow to be fairly large as in 3ft tall, not the tiny little turtles. I have no idea where to even begin on how to go about getting one.|||Unfortunatly, the Desert Tortoise does not get that big. You may be thinking of the galapagos tortoise, they can reach up to 500lbs! big Tortoise! And those, along with other large tortoises, require an Exotic reptiles lisence to own. Desert Tortioses are endangered, and thus illegal to own. California allows you to apply for a permit through the department of fish and game, but in Arizona, I believe it is just plain illegal.
The sulcata tortoise can grow up to 3 feet across, and over 200lbs. These ARE legal to own, however require a very large habitat. The best place to get a large variety of turtles and tortoises is to visit a reptile expo. Pick up a Reptiles Magazine from your local pet store, in the back it has a list of all reptile expos and shows in your area.
Also, visit www.petfinder.com and look for local reptile rescues in your area, and see if you can adopt one, adopting is always best!
Good Luck

- I have been admitted into the Computer Engineering program at Arizona State University and am curious on how difficult the program will be for me
- I am around B average student and have gone to private school my entire high school life.|||The trouble with estimating this kind of "hardness" is that there is no recognised scale by which it can be measured. This is probably because of the highly subjective nature of "difficulty". I nevertheless attempt to quantify it as follows:
On a mental hardness scale of 0 to 10 with 0 = watching TV, eating, drinking & sleeping as you want and 10 = Stephen Hawking, studying engineering rates around 4-5 at B.S. level, maybe 6 at honours or MS level.
On a physical hardness scale of 0 to 10 with 0 = watching TV, eating, drinking & sleeping as you want and 10 = Reinhold Messner, it scores around 3, the main physical difficulty being lack of sleep.
1. How many people IN FAVOR of the Arizona Immigration bill actually know how the "legal immigration system" works for Central American countries like Mexico?
2. Have you ever seen the movie, "A Day Without a Mexican"?
3. What do you think would happen to the U.S. economy and unemployment rate if all illegal immigrants were extradited from the country?
4. Should we not be targeting employers hiring illegal workers?
5. Any other reasonable thoughts?|||My wife is an immigrant and we know and understand the immigration process. I do understand the quota system as it apportions out immigration among the verious countries in a fair manner. Without the quote system the resdidents form one country (like Mexico) would take all of the slots - thus depriving people from other countries the chance to come here.
I have not see that movie. And I am not going to bother to. We have enough urban and rural poor to take the entry level jobs vacated by illegals who are sent home.
Expulsion of illegal immigrants will have no real long term effects on our economy. As I stated earlier - we have a surplus of urban and rural poor who need entry level jobs in order to gain a foothold in the workforce.
And I agree that part of the solution would be to create a system of fines where an employer pays $10,000 for every illegal on the payroll. And institute a bounty sysrtem where the perosn who reported that employer gets 10% of the fines collected.
Another thing we need to do is place a tax on wire transfers to the countries where most of the illegal immigrants come from. This tax will apply to any transfer of money that was not related to the sale of a good or service.
Something else would be to change the way our schools are funded. Instead of getting paid based on the number of students - they only get paid for the number of students who are legally in this country. If an illegal wants free education - let his home country pay for it.
Next - would be to require legal status checks made for anybody getting unemployment, welfare, food stamps or any other form of public charity. If they aren't here legally - then they should not be getting our tax dollars.
My wife came here and got her citizenship by obeying the rules. If you grant amnesty, then you will be treating her just like the people who demonstrated that they have no respecrt for our culture or our laws.|||"Why can't foreigners trespass in search for something better like our ancestors did?"
They did not trespass. They first had to get permission to settle in the America;s from the mother country. Thats why they formed charters. Even in Texas, settlers had to get permission from Spain and Mexico first Report Abuse
|||"Why can't foreigners trespass in search for something better like our ancestors did?"
Why can't we enslave blacks like our ancestors? Because times have changed and we actually believe in the rule of law written by a democratic people. Report Abuse
|||Are you at all familiar with Mexican immigration laws? I think we should adopt their immigration laws.
in the country legally;
have the means to sustain themselves economically;
not destined to be burdens on society;
of economic and social benefit to society;
of good character and have no criminal records; and
contributors to the general well-being of the nation.
The law also ensures that:
immigration authorities have a record of each foreign visitor;
foreign visitors do not violate their visa status;
foreign visitors are banned from interfering in the country's internal politics;
foreign visitors who enter under false pretenses are imprisoned or deported;
foreign visitors violating the terms of their entry are imprisoned or deported;
those who aid in illegal immigration will be sent to prison.|||I am in favor. And you know its not about Mexican, its about the right thing to do, like me, I did go the right process to enter USA.
You know why is there a cheap labor and do you know why all these business like construction and contractors start falling and closed? it all started because of these illegal aliens.
For example, you need a plumber, before this illegal aliens has arrived here in America.
You need to call a licensed plumber and need to pay like $200 to $300, to fix it.
But today, if you need a plumber, go outside the streets, get 1 Mexican standing in the corner of the street, let him do the plumbing, pay him $40 and your problem is solved.
Thats why Americans lost their jobs, because of these.
And for millions of illegal aliens who claims for WIC and health insurance without paying Taxes, what do you think will happen?|||1. We gave the beaners one amnesty already, screw them and anyone stupid enough to support them.
2. No why would I, it is BS made by supporters of criminals.
3. More jobs for Americans, business owners couldn't screw us over like they do now
4. We should be killing them and the illegals they hire.
5. RICO arrests for them all, hard labor, forefiture of all property, money etc.|||No one cares, we just want illegals deported thats all.
I do agree that if we dry up the work they will self deport. But then look at when ups used eVerify and all the illegals were fired.
You had the activist groups saying it wasnt fair because they were illegal and coudnt get papers?|||I'm against it because it's plain racist. You won't see any police officers pulling over irish or scottish immigrants but will pull over a sht load of hispanics in one day. hmmm|||do we need immigrants yes
but is their something wrong with them coming into this country legally???..|||1. From everything I've heard, it's a bunch of hoops to jump through.
2. No.
3. If all illegals suddenly disappeared, the unemployment rate would drop to near zero due to all the sudden work now available. Yes, there'd be some shocks to the system too. But of course, that is fantasy. In reality, the best we could do is maybe deport 10% of the illegals each year, and there would be no sudden shock to the system.
4. Sure, we should be targeting employers TOO. And that is in the new AZ law. That doesn't mean we limit enforcement or limit controlling our borders.
5. Yes. Read the AZ law. In a nutshell, here's how it works. A cop stops you for normal things cops stop you for. Traffic violation, jaywalking, etc. They then ask for an ID. THIS IS EXACTLY HOW IT WORKS EVERYWHERE IN THE USA. Since you have to proof US citizenship or legal residency to get a driver's license or state ID, if you can produce it, that's the end of the story. If you can't, a reasonable suspicion is raised. Maybe this person doesn't have an ID because they aren't eligible for one. It's really as simple as that.|||is it ones upon a time in mexico
Is there anyone out there that has any insight going on with the running back position in Arizona? Is Wells or Hightower gonna start come week? Wells looked pretty good with the second team offense in their last preseason game? Need some fantasy help!|||Wells will be the starter. Not sure if it will be week 1 since he has been injured, but not far into the season he will be the starter if not week 1.|||Hightower is listed in the team's official depth chart as the starter, with Wells as the #2 RB. I don't expect that to change. Just because a second string RB looks good against a 2nd string defense doesn't mean he's ready to be on the first team offense against a first team defense. He will see some action and may be a serviceable #3 or 4 RB on your team. And, he certainly will see an increased role as the season progresses, possibly taking the starting role from Hightower in the next several weeks.|||I bet Hightower will start in week 1, but Wells will work his way in and probably be starting by week 3, if not sooner. He is a good player and they picked him in round 1 for a reason. His injury in the preseason set him back a bit though.|||I think Hightower is going to start

My 16 year old sister did a stupid thing ang got pregnant with her 17 year old boyfriend. She wants to continue her life like normal and have an abortion. My opinion is that she take responsibility for the situation she got herself into, but I support my sister in her feelings. She doesn't want our parents to know about it and she just wants to get past this. What are the laws regarding minors and are there any clinics in Arizona that don't talk to parents? Thanks.|||You really expect us to believe a sixteen year old is pregnant with a 17 year old baby? This is impossible.
Send your sister to Planned Parenthood. Bless you for supporting her right to choose.|||People who have never experienced the trauma of abortion have no ideal what the lifelong consequences of this decision are. Unfortunately I did 25 years ago with a woman I was in love with. She was worried what her parents would say and I was young & motivated. I regret that decision to this day. He or she would be 25 years old and might have had grandkids for us. Blonde, redhead, brunette...blue eyes, green eyes... who knows now. I wish I did. Parents will find out eventually and pray they understand and help her thru this. Adoption is always a grand option for those not ready for parenting. Lots of couples wanting to be loving parents that can't conceive thier own baby.|||Hey,
Has your sister thought about adoption? Whether she decides to keep the baby or let him/her grow up with another family, please, for your sister's sake don't encourage her to get an abortion. I've met sooo many women who regret their abortions years, and even decades later and don't want anyone to have to go through that pain.
In addition, I don't know how far along your sister is, but even at a few weeks your niece or nephew has a beating heart, tiny little hands, legs, etc. 鈥?at only 7 weeks babies have been known to begin sucking their thumbs! Abortion will (painfully) kill this child, so please discourage your sister from going through with the abortion. (They're pretty gruesome, but if you've never seen what happens to the baby during an abortion I recommend Googling abortion pictures.)
I know talking to parents may be really hard for your sister, but they'll be able to help her the most. At least from my own experience, I've found that dreading talking to parents is usually far worse than the reaction after the fact.
I recommend either your sister or you check out www.optionline.org, people facing unplanned pregnancies can call or chat with them 24/7, and they can even help you find a local pregnancy resource center.
Please, for your sister's sake as well as your niece or nephew's sake, please encourage your sister not to get an abortion.
Hope this helps,
Lucy

You'll need:
Salt
chalk

Pour salt on a paper plate and lay the chalk horizontal and rub it over the salt. Its not as bright as the purchased sand.
Here is another way...

Sand
Food Coloring
Glass or Metal Bowl (you can also use paper cups, paper bowls, or baggie)
Use one bowl for each color you want to make. Place the desired amount of sand in the bowl. Pour on enough water to barely cover the sand, then add a generous amount of food coloring to each container. Stir and set the bowl aside and let it sit until it is the desired color (this can take a while). Once the sand has reached the desired color, empty out the extra water, and pour the sand onto paper towels to dry.

I am from Massachusetts and am interested in Arizona state university. I was wondering how different it is at ASU being from out of state as opposed to the 70% from AZ. Do the students go into college already having friends or are they open to making new ones? Thanks!|||Its a great school. They have wonderful programs as well as are very friendly. If you look at how high the school is rated, its great for business and medical. Other areas are just as good but those are their specialties. As for an out of state student, you will most likely be popular. We like to see people from other places here as well. My advice though, to help you with money would be to wait a year and live here first. After a year you will have gained in state tuition. Also, another thing to look into is the MAPP program. You start at one of the community colleges in Phoenix and are transferred to ASU while only having to go to school for 4 years. 4 years earns you a Bachelors with that program. You do 2 years at the community college and 2 years at the university. The community colleges are just as good here. We have many professors who actually work at the university and community colleges.|||Being from one of the most liberal states in the country Why would you go to ASU being in the most conservative state in the country?|||ASU is nice, quite safe, and a good school. Massachusetts can educate people stronger than in Arizona, so the in-state people can be less well educated than the out-of-state ones. The people are very friendly. Get into some clubs, get to a dorm to live, and eat at the school lunchrooms. You can make friends easy that way. My experience. When you are making choices in life, it's important to know God and then you can pray about your life, and God can help you live it out right. When you are a Christian, you can get God's guidance, help, and get to heaven forever after you die someday, if you live a good, God-honoring life. If you live a life without knowing God, then you go to hell -- a bad place of suffering forever, when you die. God is our Creator, life, love, all-powerful, all-knowing, eternal, holy. Praying the prayer below will make you a Christian. Then, live it out with faith and love for God and Jesus Christ, love others, Bible study, prayer, and church. It's about having a relationship with God.
This is how to know God -- the basic Christian message and prayer --- you need to accept God's Son, Jesus Christ, into your life to be a Christian and follow God's ways so you can receive God's guidance in your life and get to heaven after you die. Knowing God can transform your life. When you know God, then pray about your life, God can help you live a better life. As God is love, life is primarily about love and relationships in order to have a rich and full life. Also, you need to know God's Son, Jesus Christ, in your life as your Lord and Savior as Jesus died on the cross as payment for our sins. Having Him with you will give you God's blessing and forgiveness, as you live God's way. Not following God leads to hell, eternal suffering. Instead, there is an important prayer to pray to become a Christian. This prayer should be said with faith in God and a sincere heart:
"Dear God, I know that I am a sinful person and I don't want to be like this anymore. I know that Jesus Christ died on the cross as payment for our sins, and I want to accept Jesus Christ into my life as my Lord and Savior so I can receive God's forgiveness, guidance, and go to heaven someday. Thank you, dear God, for your mercy and guidance; in Jesus' name. Amen."
This prayer can take you to a new place in your relationship with God and transform your life. After saying this prayer, you should check out a Christian church, like Baptist or Lutheran (not ELCA Lutheran). The church can get you baptized and prayed for, and you can pray for yourself daily.
The church can get you into their Bible study group so you can learn more about God, Jesus, and God's will for your life. The Bible is God's instruction book about how to live a God-honoring life so you can go to heaven after you die. Ways to stay connected to God's path include loving God and Jesus Christ, obeying God's ways, daily Bible reading, daily prayer for yourself and others, getting to church, having your church prayer group and/or pastor pray for you, fasting with prayer for a higher level of prayer, getting with other Christians and doing a Bible study, singing hymns to God, taking communion with the church, helping and loving others, expressing your gratitude to God for His help in your life by telling others of your progress and helping them draw closer to God too, tithing, volunteering at church. Continue to turn from sins and seek God's forgiveness in your life as you live your daily life. God guide your life.

You might want to take tapes or videos or something to read, but I suspect that you'll find, as I did, that the scenery and new surroundings are all that you really need. It is a marvelous experience, far better than an airplane, for on a bus you are truly _traveling._
You should, however, invest in one of those 'neck pillows' that go around your neck and thus support your head. And consider bringing a blanket, though I think some buses still have them.
There's generally a lot of room on a long-distance bus, so you'll likely have no problem finding a seat to stretch out on.
Have fun. Life is worth an adventure, and sitting on a runway for hours waiting to take off shouldn't be in anyone's itinerary.|||southwest airlines gotta deal for you? 14 dAYS IN ADVANCE
The temperature won't go below 81 at night, and it takes a long time for it to even get there. I live in Tempe Arizona.|||There is no set temp. It should be able to cool the inside 20 degrees cooler then the outside if run continously. It sounds like you are letting the house heat up and then trying to cool it. It works better to run it at your desired temp constantly.
81 is not hot though.|||Arizona law does not state a specific temperature which you must be able to obtain. The term used is 'reasonable'. I suspect that an 80F evening temperature in AZ would be considered reasonable.
How much is a 1 bedroom apartment, studio apartment or a room to rent in Phoenix, Arizona? Does anyone know?|||You can get one as low as 400 monthly in most areas, but you will want to spend 6-8 for anything decent in a nice area.
I dont recommend studio apartments either, they are way too small.|||Depends upon the area, and the areas are really spread out. It also depends of course on how big of an apartment, I know you said one bedroom but how big? Then the amenities also play into it...do you want a washer/dryer in the apartment? Do you have pets?
Go to rent.com and explore using their free service...but if you enter your info they will start emailing you stuff. Tempe is a nice locale and centrally located by the airport, Scottsdale is a little more expensive and is North of the Airport....it depends upon why your moving here...is it because of school? Then Tempe is probably where you want to look. I lived in Chandler and the commute is a little longer but not bad, or try Gilbert or Ahwautukee. Good luck and if you do move here then welcome to the valley, it's supposed to be 113 today...but it's a dry heat :).

You don't believe you did anything wrong by entering the US illegally. All you want is the American Dream and a better way of life and you are willing to do whatever it takes to get it.

I need to get from here (Vancouver, BC, Canada) to Yuma, Arizona to visit my grandparents during Spring Break (starts March 15 for a week). What airport should I fly into? I can get them to pick me up if it's not too far away (Palm Springs, San Diego, Phoenix?). And when would the best time to book the flight be? January?|||If that's a common week for a lot of unis to have spring break, then I'd book sooner rather than later.
Expand your search to include Victoria and Bellingham, as well as Seattle if you could. Great advice so far about San Diego, Palm Springs, Tucson. I would also add Mesa, since Allegiant Air have a Bellingham-Mesa flight.
I searched all of these, and currently the best is $323 on SEA-PHX. Cheapest out of YVR is $494 currently (to PSP, back from PHX).
If you want to get creative, you might try Skybus from Bellingham via Columbus to San Diego. You might also try a thorough blitz of all prices with http://www.bookingbuddy.com
One final thought... Southwest doesn't show up in other booking sites (neither does Allegiant Air). A quick check shows they fly Seattle-San Diego your dates for $285rt total.|||You might also consider leaving from Seattle or having a look at the price difference.
Feel free to look at my travel site and compare.
Good luck~
http://www.moonlightvacations.net|||There is an airport in Yuma (Yuma international airport) and that is the closest one. Phoenix Sky harbor is about 190 miles away and it takes approx. 3 hrs (no traffic) to 4 hrs or more if there is traffic. San Diego International is about 177 miles away and its about 3 hrs. Palm Springs airport is about 166 miles away and its also about 3 hrs away. You can ask your grandparents to go pick you up from any one of those 3 airports, but there will have to spend a good chunk of time on the road. An option for you is to fly into fly into Phoenix and then switch planes to Yuma. Save your grandparents sometime.
Palm Springs is acutally closer than San Diego (in terms of miles) but the route from San Diego is the most direct (its just 1 highway and the route isnt all that crooked and curvy)|||Yuma has flight service from Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, and Phoenix. These flights are rather pricey if you book them seperately, so try for a supersaver all the way to Yuma. Occasionally, you can get such a good deal on a flight to one of these hub cities, that buying a ticket to Yuma is worthwhile, but not often. Many people will fly to Phoenix and take one of the shuttle bus services to Yuma.|||I once flew into Phoenix to visit family in Tucson at Christmas. We then drove to L.A. from Tucson passing through Yuma and San Diego. I think you'll have better luck and maybe cheaper to fly to San Diego, because we hit a major snow storm and got diverted to Denver with major delays on our return. Anytime you fly over the mountains - yes - even at spring break, you run the risk of a snowstorm. I think Yuma is actually closer to San Diego (on the Arizona/California border as I recall) than to Phoenix, and is one very straight desert highway. Have a great trip!

What do you think of the possibility of Vince Young going to the Arizona Cardinals? Larry Fitzgerald and Steve Breaston need a good QB, and I believe Vince is that guy.|||I believe there's a pretty good chance. He won't be too expensive like McNabb, and I bet the Cardinals will be looking for just about anything. Young has had some success and deserves the full confidence of an organization to go out and play 16 regular season games (if healthy of course) before he is written off. The Cardinals are definitely in a position to give him that opportunity.|||Its possible and all things considered it may not happen. I like Vince Young, I think he has shown that he can play at the pro level, but he has not always been consistent. I think he needs to get some personal issues under control and come to terms with change. Then I think the change of scenery will be good for him and he'll have a good year. If it happens to be Arizona, even better. But most likely, he may wind up in Dallas or Miami.|||Could happen and would be really ironic. Vince young Houston Native goest to Arizona to play for a team that Matt leinart (who now plays for the Texans in vinces home town) used to play for. And of course the 2 QB's went Head to Head in the greatest CFB game ever.|||he will end up with some s-it team,maybe the cowboys,or redskins (forget about the redskins shannahan doesn't like black quarterbacks. he would fit in with the cardnials|||Vince Young is not the right answer ...

I have always heard of people complaining that Arizona and Texas are the worst states to live. I mean, there was even a Family Guy episode about TX which made some knock offs, and there was a knock off line about AZ in Home Alone 2.
So anyways, why does everyone hate those states? What is so bad about them?|||Desert and rednecks. That's all there is to them.
Phoenix is 100+ degrees in the summer and is nothing but tract housing, retirement homes, and golf courses. It's like Las Vegas, but with all the casinos removed.
Houston is a congested, sprawling, smoggy metropolis. It's like Los Angels - only remove the beach, young people, hipster neighborhoods, and the movie/music industry and replace it with oil companies, fat people, and crazy humidity.
Dallas is a generic large city. It has absolutely zero defining characteristics. It has neither the public transit, history, or culture that you tend to see in east coast cities, nor does it have the youth, scenery, and outdoor life that you tend to see in west coast cities. Dallas is just there.
San Antonio is fun for a day or two. Ditto with the Grand Canyon and some other natural stuff in Arizona. Austin and Tuscon are supposed to be cool, but I've never been. That's about the only positive thing I can say.
The rest is horribly depressing redneck towns and vast open space.
Oh, and Texas also ruins national politics by producing people like George W. Bush and Tom DeLay and filling the House with neo-con idiots. That doesn't help.|||I think you're asking two questions: 1) why do people joke about these states and 2) what is it about the states that might justify the jokes.
Personally, I don't hear that many state-specific jokes, but when I lived in Texas I did hear my share of Oklahoma jokes. Most jokes I hear about a particular region now are about the South or Appalachia.
Where do you live?
One explanation for why you might hear jokes about Texas is that Texans make themselves targets by bragging about their state. And they do it a lot, about everything. George Bush didn't help the reputation of the state much either.
As for livability in Texas and Arizona, both states have good parts and bad parts. Austin, Texas in particular is a very livable city.|||I know so many people that moved to AZ after getting a good college degree and ended up working at a restaurant until they could save up enough money to move back. There are not many high end jobs there for college grads. Its growing fast. I'd give it a few more years and there might be some new higher end jobs though.|||Try living in California. Living in California is the ULTIMATELY worst state!|||I love both States Arizona and Texas. I just couldn't tell you why.
I support the law, but I think Jan Brewer should just give up this law and try some other means to curb illegal immigration in Arizona. It is now officially a lost cause and the DOJ will make sure that now that the injuction is in place, the lawsuit will take years.|||To be fair, people also think they're going to repeal health care reform, so it's not like they're grounded in any kind of reality.|||AZ will win.. the law is constitutionally sound and would never had been needed in the first place, if the feds were doing their jobs..which it seems most of washington shirk their responsibilities blaming it on someone else.

It can continue in this pattern for a number of years or in this case, maybe long enough for the federal government to come up and pass a bill that will block this type of legislation.|||What they need to do is mandate the use of E-Verify,it works,it's free and I think Employment Rules are well within the Rights of a State to regulate.Make any fines for non-compliance applicable to the Employers,and not employees,then they can't argue that you're targeting anyone.

I'm going to a place called Sun Lakes Arizona for a week in November. I googled it and it's near Mesa Arizona. I would like to know what historical monuments or wonders of the world are in that Area. I plan to drive 3 hours (I think?) to the Grand Canyon. Is there anything else I should definately see? Thanks!|||Sun Lakes is on the southern edge of the larger Phoenix metro area. It is closer to the towns of Chandler, Gilbert and Tempe then Mesa (although Mesa is not that far away either).
Before listing some of the historical and natural attractions in the Phoenix area, I should note that from Sun Lakes, it will actually be about a 4.5 to 5 hour drive to the Grand Canyon (because you are starting from the opposite side of Phoenix). And that is assuming you don't leave around rush hour.
As the poster above mentions, there is a large historic Mormon temple in Mesa (Mesa was largely founded by Mormons) which is worth checking out. Mesa also has an old historic downtown area with turn of the century buildings.
In downtown Phoenix, the famous Heard Museum is considered one of the nation's best museums for Native American arts and history. The Phoenix Museum of History is nearby and not too far away (near the Zoo in Papago Park) is the Arizona Historical Society Museum.
Being in Sun Lakes, you will be fairly close to the large prehistoric Hohokam ruins at Casa Grande National Monument (near the town of Casa Grande) which is pretty impressive.
A little to the east of Phoenix are the beautiful Superstition Mountains that are said to be the location of Lost Dutchman Goldmine. There is a interesting (if winding) called the Apache Trail (AZ88) that runs between the mountains and the lakes of the Salt River. Near the start of the road (at Apache Junction) is the Goldfield 'Ghost Town' which is really more of a tourist attraction than a real historic site, but it can be kinda fun.
On your way from Phoenix up the Grand Canyon, you could stop at Sedona and Oak Creek Canyon (famous for its red rocks and expensive resorts). There is also the interesting prehistoric ruins just off the highway at Montezuma Castle National Monument. And if you are into historic sites, you might like Jerome - a historic turn of the century mining town with lots of historic buildings - which is perched on the side of Mingus Mountain a little off the main route to the canyon.
To be honest, while Phoenix has lots of resorts, malls, golf courses and movie theaters (like you would find in any big city), it really does not have that many special attractions (historic or otherwise) that are unique to Phoenix and most of the older historic sections have long since been bulldozed and built over. Most of the more interesting historic and natural attractions are a ways outside the city.|||There is a beautiful temple in Mesa Arizona, there is also a desert national park and some spectacular desert scenery.

Which city in Arizona do you think would be best for me?
Thank you in advance.|||Flagstaff is the only city that meets your needs.|||Given Arizona's history, most of the state is Wild West themed. I grew up on a ranch near Seligman in the Northwestern part of the state, and since you don't want the hustle and bustle of Phoenix or Tucson, the nearest cities in that area that your gonna find that meet what your looking for are either Flagstaff, Lake Havasu City, or Bullhead City, and possibly maybe Kingman. Otherwise, the Grand Canyon State might not be the right fit for you.
Hope this helps man.|||Every larger city in Arizona to one degree or another is Wild West Themed. After all Arizona is in the West and rich in Western History.

I'm so sick of being called a racist, when I, myself, moved here LEGALLY from Canada, acquiring all of the papers necessary to live here LEGALLY, WITHOUT DEPRIVING AMERICAN CITIZENS OF WHAT THEY DESERVE. I do not agree with ANY form of illegal immigration, whether it is from Mexico, Lithuania, or wherever. Congratulations to Arizona for standing up for what is right!
Would you agree?|||Nowhere......but since Mexicans have mostly committed themselves and since the biggest amount of illegal aliens are Mexicans, they are the first who are supposed to be stopped by the police. And it's obvious..and it is not racism.

You followed the rules. They didn't. They don't deserve to be there.|||I agree. :) But, since many illegal aliens are Mexicans, they will be effected by this law the most.|||There are illegal immigration issues in America, and I agree they need to be addressed. If America was still following it's correct foundation of being a Federal Republic then this should have be handled by the central government. Things like the US Dept of Education ($ billion sink hole) should not exist as education is supposed to be handled by each respective state.

But Arizona has taken things beyond justice, especially their latest foolishness to not have ethnic classes taught---we are ALL mixed ethnicities with the possible exception of American Indians! If the United States CRACKED DOWN on the EMPLOYERS of undocumented workers (SUSPENSION of a business license for the state, PRISON TIME, and ever escalating FINES), just as they are now attempting to stop the drug trafficking coming across the borders, perhaps the incentives for breaking immigration laws would be diminished and fewer illegals would come.|||It would show that you are very ignorant about what you are protesting against. Arizona is not anti-immigrant, it's anti illegal immigrant. And according to CNN polls and other polls taken around the country, including polls taken in L.A., most people are anti-illegal immigrant.
The law clearly states that everyone is to be questioned about their legal status, no matter what race they are. Racial profiling is strictly forbidden in the amendment to the law. The law was amended several times to make sure their was no misunderstanding on what law enforcement can and cannot do.
Vandalizing the USS Arizona memorial in an attempt to "hurt" Arizona is totally moronic. What you would be doing is disrespecting the Americans from all over that died in Pearl Harbor, NOT Arizona.
Do you realize that almost all illegal immigrants here are stealing someone's social security number or identity to work here? And the ones that don't are exploited and paid crappy wages by people taking advantage of them. Do you know what happens when an illegal immigrant gets into an accident here? They get out of the car and run away. Guess who's stuck with the bill? Would you be so "pro immigrant" if one stole your identity? Ruined your credit? Committed a crime using your identity? Or if one caused you to be in an accident, then fled the scene?
Before you make assumptions about who I am, I was born in Japan and am now a U.S. citizen that served in the U.S. Air Force. My wife is Mexican American, who's father was born in Mexico and mother from El Paso. My wife served in the U.S. Air Force as well. We support helping people on the path to legalized immigration here.|||Sorry, no nazi regime in AZ related to the illegal immigration crisis.
Touching the USS Arizona Memorial would be the dumbest crime these people could possibly pull off. There would be violence towards illegal immigrants over such an act of stupidity. It would also be proof of just how little sense people have on that side of the debate. What does the USS Arizona Memorial, a grave for hundreds of WWII sailors, have to do besides sharing the name Arizona?
How dumb that would be.
I am so thrilled that Arizona passed this law. It is about time people start doing something about the illegal immigration problem in the U.S.|||Vandalizing is generally wrong anywhere. I respect the boycotts of AZ though.
What do you think of the possibility of Vince Young going to the Arizona Cardinals? Larry Fitzgerald and Steve Breaston need a good QB, and I believe Vince is that guy.|||I believe there's a pretty good chance. He won't be too expensive like McNabb, and I bet the Cardinals will be looking for just about anything. Young has had some success and deserves the full confidence of an organization to go out and play 16 regular season games (if healthy of course) before he is written off. The Cardinals are definitely in a position to give him that opportunity.|||Its possible and all things considered it may not happen. I like Vince Young, I think he has shown that he can play at the pro level, but he has not always been consistent. I think he needs to get some personal issues under control and come to terms with change. Then I think the change of scenery will be good for him and he'll have a good year. If it happens to be Arizona, even better. But most likely, he may wind up in Dallas or Miami.|||Could happen and would be really ironic. Vince young Houston Native goest to Arizona to play for a team that Matt leinart (who now plays for the Texans in vinces home town) used to play for. And of course the 2 QB's went Head to Head in the greatest CFB game ever.|||he will end up with some s-it team,maybe the cowboys,or redskins (forget about the redskins shannahan doesn't like black quarterbacks. he would fit in with the cardnials|||Vince Young is not the right answer ... He will create problems in the locker room and on the field. I like the Cardinals, so I think it's better that they focus on McNabb as QB .....|||i think Minnesota and arizona will be a good fit for him|||I see it happening...Arizona lacks a running game as well and he'll somewhat fill that hole|||I hope so because I dont want him in Minnesota|||yep/ however no nfl this fall means no contracts
I have always heard of people complaining that Arizona and Texas are the worst states to live. I mean, there was even a Family Guy episode about TX which made some knock offs, and there was a knock off line about AZ in Home Alone 2.
So anyways, why does everyone hate those states? What is so bad about them?|||Desert and rednecks. That's all there is to them.
Phoenix is 100+ degrees in the summer and is nothing but tract housing, retirement homes, and golf courses. It's like Las Vegas, but with all the casinos removed.
Houston is a congested, sprawling, smoggy metropolis. It's like Los Angels - only remove the beach, young people, hipster neighborhoods, and the movie/music industry and replace it with oil companies, fat people, and crazy humidity.
Dallas is a generic large city. It has absolutely zero defining characteristics. It has neither the public transit, history, or culture that you tend to see in east coast cities, nor does it have the youth, scenery, and outdoor life that you tend to see in west coast cities. Dallas is just there.
San Antonio is fun for a day or two. Ditto with the Grand Canyon and some other natural stuff in Arizona. Austin and Tuscon are supposed to be cool, but I've never been. That's about the only positive thing I can say.
The rest is horribly depressing redneck towns and vast open space.
Oh, and Texas also ruins national politics by producing people like George W. Bush and Tom DeLay and filling the House with neo-con idiots. That doesn't help.|||I think you're asking two questions: 1) why do people joke about these states and 2) what is it about the states that might justify the jokes.
Personally, I don't hear that many state-specific jokes, but when I lived in Texas I did hear my share of Oklahoma jokes. Most jokes I hear about a particular region now are about the South or Appalachia.
Where do you live?
One explanation for why you might hear jokes about Texas is that Texans make themselves targets by bragging about their state. And they do it a lot, about everything. George Bush didn't help the reputation of the state much either.
As for livability in Texas and Arizona, both states have good parts and bad parts. Austin, Texas in particular is a very livable city.|||I know so many people that moved to AZ after getting a good college degree and ended up working at a restaurant until they could save up enough money to move back. There are not many high end jobs there for college grads. Its growing fast. I'd give it a few more years and there might be some new higher end jobs though.|||Try living in California. Living in California is the ULTIMATELY worst state!|||I love both States Arizona and Texas. I just couldn't tell you why.
I support the law, but I think Jan Brewer should just give up this law and try some other means to curb illegal immigration in Arizona. It is now officially a lost cause and the DOJ will make sure that now that the injuction is in place, the lawsuit will take years.|||To be fair, people also think they're going to repeal health care reform, so it's not like they're grounded in any kind of reality.|||AZ will win.. the law is constitutionally sound and would never had been needed in the first place, if the feds were doing their jobs..which it seems most of washington shirk their responsibilities blaming it on someone else.

It can continue in this pattern for a number of years or in this case, maybe long enough for the federal government to come up and pass a bill that will block this type of legislation.|||What they need to do is mandate the use of E-Verify,it works,it's free and I think Employment Rules are well within the Rights of a State to regulate.Make any fines for non-compliance applicable to the Employers,and not employees,then they can't argue that you're targeting anyone.

I'm going to a place called Sun Lakes Arizona for a week in November. I googled it and it's near Mesa Arizona. I would like to know what historical monuments or wonders of the world are in that Area. I plan to drive 3 hours (I think?) to the Grand Canyon. Is there anything else I should definately see? Thanks!|||Sun Lakes is on the southern edge of the larger Phoenix metro area. It is closer to the towns of Chandler, Gilbert and Tempe then Mesa (although Mesa is not that far away either).
Before listing some of the historical and natural attractions in the Phoenix area, I should note that from Sun Lakes, it will actually be about a 4.5 to 5 hour drive to the Grand Canyon (because you are starting from the opposite side of Phoenix). And that is assuming you don't leave around rush hour.
As the poster above mentions, there is a large historic Mormon temple in Mesa (Mesa was largely founded by Mormons) which is worth checking out. Mesa also has an old historic downtown area with turn of the century buildings.
In downtown Phoenix, the famous Heard Museum is considered one of the nation's best museums for Native American arts and history. The Phoenix Museum of History is nearby and not too far away (near the Zoo in Papago Park) is the Arizona Historical Society Museum.
Being in Sun Lakes, you will be fairly close to the large prehistoric Hohokam ruins at Casa Grande National Monument (near the town of Casa Grande) which is pretty impressive.
A little to the east of Phoenix are the beautiful Superstition Mountains that are said to be the location of Lost Dutchman Goldmine. There is a interesting (if winding) called the Apache Trail (AZ88) that runs between the mountains and the lakes of the Salt River. Near the start of the road (at Apache Junction) is the Goldfield 'Ghost Town' which is really more of a tourist attraction than a real historic site, but it can be kinda fun.
On your way from Phoenix up the Grand Canyon, you could stop at Sedona and Oak Creek Canyon (famous for its red rocks and expensive resorts). There is also the interesting prehistoric ruins just off the highway at Montezuma Castle National Monument. And if you are into historic sites, you might like Jerome - a historic turn of the century mining town with lots of historic buildings - which is perched on the side of Mingus Mountain a little off the main route to the canyon.
To be honest, while Phoenix has lots of resorts, malls, golf courses and movie theaters (like you would find in any big city), it really does not have that many special attractions (historic or otherwise) that are unique to Phoenix and most of the older historic sections have long since been bulldozed and built over. Most of the more interesting historic and natural attractions are a ways outside the city.|||There is a beautiful temple in Mesa Arizona, there is also a desert national park and some spectacular desert scenery.
Was planning on taking a short little vacation with my girlfriend, thinking of Arizona. Was going to check tripadvisor and orbtits but was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for areas to check out or hotels you recommend. Probably just going to be for like 3 days, Fri, Sat, Sun. Also hoping to rent a motorcycle and cruise around the desert for a while. Thanks|||Stay at Phoenix towneplace suites by marriott! its so homey there, the rooms have full kitchens so you can make your girl a nice meal she'll love. The people that work there are so awesome and helpful too! They also have some packages that will give roses in the room or dinner and stuff like that. and its right in the middle of phoenix but not so close to downtown that you can hear every freakin plane that flys in. its right by a mall and castles and coasters which makes a fun date, they have roller coasters and mini golf as well as an arcade and go karts. there is also delicious dining close. and its right off of the i 17 which is a main highway of az and can easily take you to any other place in the valley.|||There's this really awesome resort called the Arizona Grand Resort, it does cost very much. It's in Phoenix so it's like half n hour to the desert. Plus there's a water park there, the oasis. It's tons of fun :)

Is it long-sleeve weather? or will I be good with short sleeves? thats basically what I need to know... Short or Long sleeves!|||Depends on where you're travelling in AZ. In late November, Grand Canyon, Sedona and Flagstaff can be cold and snowy; you'll need your NY winter clothes. Vegas and Phoenix; long sleeves (possibly sweater weather) with a medium jacket. Here in the desert, when the sun goes down the temperature plummets.
Vegas/Phoenix - highs in the mid 60's, lows in the mid 40's.

I'm looking for a suburban, family-oriented area, with four seasons and a population between 50,000 and 90,000 people, in the North or Northwest area of the state, NOT too Wild West themed, and preferably with things like a hospital and airport nearby.
Which city in Arizona do you think would be best for me?
Thank you in advance.|||Flagstaff is the only city that meets your needs.|||Given Arizona's history, most of the state is Wild West themed. I grew up on a ranch near Seligman in the Northwestern part of the state, and since you don't want the hustle and bustle of Phoenix or Tucson, the nearest cities in that area that your gonna find that meet what your looking for are either Flagstaff, Lake Havasu City, or Bullhead City, and possibly maybe Kingman. Otherwise, the Grand Canyon State might not be the right fit for you.
Hope this helps man.|||Every larger city in Arizona to one degree or another is Wild West Themed. After all Arizona is in the West and rich in Western History. Maybe Arizona wouldn't be the best place for you to live|||You are talking about Prescott and Prescott valley or possibly Flagstaff or Payson these are the only cities that meet your criteria in north or northwest Arizona. (Prescott)|||Obviously Scottsdale, but that might be a little too "Wild West."
So, either Prescott or Flagstaff would be best.
How long is a flight from Arizona to Los Angeles?|||An hour max.|||About 45 minutes.
Basically, you get up to altitude, cross the river, and descend back down. If LA's traffic wasn't so god-awful, I might actually tell you just to drive.|||It took me like 5 hours to drive from phoenix to LA. Seriously, it's a waste of money to pay a ticket from Phoenix to LA, i prefer to drive.|||About 40 minutes. Once you reach cruising altitude, you begin your descent.
Oh wait, it doesn't. It applies to all races, even white. I'm so sick of being called a racist, when I, myself, moved here LEGALLY from Canada, acquiring all of the papers necessary to live here LEGALLY, WITHOUT DEPRIVING AMERICAN CITIZENS OF WHAT THEY DESERVE. I do not agree with ANY form of illegal immigration, whether it is from Mexico, Lithuania, or wherever. Congratulations to Arizona for standing up for what is right!
Would you agree?|||Nowhere......but since Mexicans have mostly committed themselves and since the biggest amount of illegal aliens are Mexicans, they are the first who are supposed to be stopped by the police. And it's obvious..and it is not racism.

You followed the rules. They didn't. They don't deserve to be there.|||I agree. :) But, since many illegal aliens are Mexicans, they will be effected by this law the most.|||There are illegal immigration issues in America, and I agree they need to be addressed. If America was still following it's correct foundation of being a Federal Republic then this should have be handled by the central government. Things like the US Dept of Education ($ billion sink hole) should not exist as education is supposed to be handled by each respective state. So as you can see, we have a central government taking away states' rights and it appears Arizona has had enough!

Dual federalism - 1860
Cooperative federalism - 1930

Pro-illegals keep saying that crime rates will increase with the new Arizona law.
Illegals are the ones increasing crime rates, so how can crime rates increase when illegals are removed?? How can less people lead to more crime?? Or is that just another scare tactic pro-illegals use to get "sympathy"??|||they cant...in fact i believe Arizona's crime rate has already gone down just since they announced that they will be enforcing immigration laws in their state some illegals are leaving arizona...imagine that! i hope everything goes well with what arizona is doing as it will set the stage for other states to do the same!!!!ARIZONA RULES!!!!|||Did you just want to choose someone that answers with what you want to hear? Of course the rate droped so far. Illegals are leaving but none are geting arrested. Once the alway passes the rate will go up as people get arrested for being an illegal. Then you will see the rate go up! Report Abuse
|||I know it seems counter productive but its actually true. To be fair it is true due to a technicality. Perhaps i should explain...
When SB1070 takes effect (at least theoretically) numbers of illegal aliens will be arrested, jailed, and deported for being in violation of a new law. Every time this happens it counts as a crime when it comes to recording the crime rate in AZ. So, yes, every time an illegal is arrested for being an illegal the crime rate counter gets another check mark and the rate rises.
Think of it this way. ANYTIME, a law is past the crime rate will technically rise. Why? Because there is yet another rule that can be broken and recorded as a crime.
So is the anti-1070 crowd lying when the say the crime rate will rise?
Technically No.
But they are smart enough to not mention the fact that the crime rate will go up because it accounts for all the illegal aliens that are getting arrested simply for being illegal. They would rather people assume things like murder, rape, and theft will be the crimes that will rise.|||Well look at their logic!
The criminals are always running to the police to turn in other criminals!
If they can be deported they will stop running to tell the police about each other!
The problem is that the criminals are NOT running to the police to turn in other criminals!
That logic has to be one of the most moronic statements made by the pro-criminal groups!
In AZ over half the crime committed is by illegal aliens! It doesn't take a genius to figure out that fewer illegal aliens would mean fewer crimes!
According to the FBI over 99% of illegal aliens commit their first felony within 90 days of their "immigration violation"! Whether it be identity theft, fraud, rape, child molestation, theft, robbery, ...|||What funkyk Said ...

They figured that Arizona would lose 140,324 jobs of people that sell goods and services directly to these "illegals".

DISCLAIMER: any slandering of a specific group will be reported.|||That is impossible to predict right now
I'm largely in favor of the new law an I'm a liberal. Arizona is in a special place, it is the state with the smallest native population with the longest border.

Their school budgets, the hospital acceptances and the taxes the legal citizens pay for illegals is way out of control
The message it send is Spanish Speakers stay the hell our of our state. This may be harsh but so has the destruction illegals have done to Arizona.

Think about it, Latinos have voted heavily Democratic in recent elections and will continue to do so. As long as the Mexican population continues to grow in states like Arizona, they will put the Republican party in jeopardy in Senatorial, Congressional, and presidential races. This immigration bill is already causing Latinos to leave or avoid the state in droves. Do you think that was the Republican's intention all along? The fewer Latinos there are in Arizona, the better it is for the Republicans politically.|||No, it was designed to stop the violence on the legal citizens in AZ. Gov.

This way no one would have to cry foul since every home and business would be checked.|||It was designed to scapegoal illegal workers as the cause for our economic woes. They take jobs no one else wants, that you literally cannot pay Americans to do, and are an important part of our economic structure when the economy is going well.

The fact is, illegal aliens have “more” rights than gay people. Illegal aliens can see their opposite sex partners in hospitals, and up until just 2 weeks ago when Obama signed an executive order allowing same-sex couples to see one another in hospitals, same sex couples would have been continually barred from seeing one another. Illegal aliens can marry an American citizen, gay people cannot marry in most states in the US. Illegal aliens can march on Washington and request some type of amnesty from a president who supports selective amnesty, gay people can march on Washington, but Obama doesn't support same sex marriage.
Illegal aliens broke the law entering our country and are using their "anchor babies" (born here in the US) to anchor onto benefits that taxpayers pay for which include: public housing, free rent, food stamps, Medicaid, unemployment, and Earned Income Tax Credit. Additionally,there's nothing to stop them from having more kids in order to convince a judge to let them stay in the US. On the other hand, many states don't allow gay Americans to adopt children.
Illegal aliens should all be deported now. We need to end birthright citizenship, and deny illegals social services. Americans are ultimately left to pick up the bill for the billions in services they receive for free all the while paying nothing into the system and send all their earned money back to Mexico to help our their country, not ours.
Citizens paying taxes into the system, regardless of sexual orientation, should come FIRST before illegal aliens who are leaving struggling Americans footing the bill. Illegal aliens are also blatantly disregarding our citizenship laws and are abusing the public assistance system to their advantage. This needs to stop NOW!|||Possibly, but the real intent is to further drive the illegals underground to suppress their wages to lower levels. AZians are cheap as well as racist, and since slavery isn't going to be making a comeback anytime soon, theis is the next best thing.
First of, i still dont fully understand what rationalism means, so my question might not make sense. But like the title says, Is there anything from the recent Arizona shootings that demonstrates rationalism?|||Rationalism in a political sense is a kind of middle road between “realism” [focusing on how to achieve the best for nation or community as the priority] and cooperationalism (is there such a word? Is there a better word for it? [focusing on cooperation between everybody as the priority.]
What are the facts?: A mentally ill man, already recognized as dangerous but more or less untreated, shoots 20 people, killing 6 of them.
“Cooperationalism” is the current state of mental health law in the US. Everybody is supposed to cooperate to help the mentally ill without forcing them into treatment or custody. It is assumed that the evils of forcing a person to do something he doesn’t want to [even if he is out of touch with the real world] are worse than the evils of not doing so.
“Realism” would look at the situation and say, “Jared is very crazy, he is a problem in the community, so lock him up at least. Even if this doesn’t help him as an individual, it will protect the community. If it costs to much to give him quality treatment, we don’t have to do that. At least we are looking after the wellbeing of the majority.”
“Rationalism” would be between these two. It would say, “In general, the rights of the individual must be honored even when the majority doesn’t like it. However, the case of a psychotic person is different. He may not even be able to be rational, or to know what is best for him, let alone the community; he is profoundly out of touch with reality. In a sober state, he would not want to harm anybody. He is not able to make a rational decision about it. Therefore, for his benefit and that of everybody else, he should be detained and treated even if he doesn’t want this.”|||Shouldn't expect rational behavior (no): the killer, sheriff, and victims were all liberals. The only reasonable anything was the Palin response asking them to have some respect for the victims.|||it displays how irraional flaming libs can be that's for sure...|||No not in the least.........It was mere crazy shooting by a deranged person

The police are shielded from litigation for stopping someone erroneously, but any citizen of Arizona can sue them if they fail to stop someone "suspected" of being an illegal immigrant.
That means the only way a cop can get in trouble, is if he doesn't stop every brown person he sees. There goes both the 4th and 14th amendments to the US Constitution ("Illegal Search and Seizure", and "Equal Protection Under the Law"). They can say it isn't about racial profiling, but how else can the cops avoid being sued?
That same paragraph also prohibits the police from releasing a suspect until they've proven their own innocence. That's a violation of the 5th amendments guarantee of Due Process, specifically the concept of "Innocent until proven guilty in a court of law." The burden of proof is never on the suspect in this country, it's always the prosecutions job.
Will Arizona also be enforcing the Federal Assimilitive Crimes Act of 1909, which makes getting a bj a federal crime? Nope. They're only interested in enforcing the law that they can use against one specific ethnicity. You know as well as I do that it's not an overwhelming respect for the law that's fueled the remarkable passion this immigration debate inspires. The difference between a legal and an illegal immigrant is the amount of paperwork they've done. Nobody gets that excited about paperwork.
Think it isn't racist? Talk about hockey in earshot of a cop, and see if he asks to see your papers, on the off chance that you're an illegal Canadian immigrant. If he does, I'll let the whole thing go.

What is the average percentage rate for a new home loan in Arizona?|||If you are in the market for a mortgage it is important to understand what the Annual Percentage Rate means and what you need to know in order to find the best mortgage. Here are tips to help you shop smartly for your mortgage loan.

Annual Percentage Rate
The Annual Percentage rate (APR) is calculated by factoring in interest charges and any other fees charged by mortgage lenders over the duration of the loan. APR is expressed as a yearly expense.

What are some ways we can all show our support?|||I'm proud of them for taking the first step, but I am praying they have the courage to take the next step. They can't actually deport illegals, they can only turn them over to ICE. This means that Obama is still free to turn them loose and not protect our borders. If Arizona has the balls for it, they need to take the next step: put all th illegals on buses and drive them to D.C.

The federal govt doesn't hire enough border police to protect our borders, so the AZ govt decided to empower their police to help them out. In the age of terrorism, having a secure border is important.
What is wrong about it?
This will not stop the "coyotes" from running people through. It may decrease it in AZ, but that still leaves New Mexico, Texas and California for them bring people via. It's also drug lords who bring many of the illegals in. As long as drugs are illegal and people in this country buy them, they will continue to use these people as a means to smuggle drugs into the country.
The AZ law is a first step in that it MAY deter the people in Mexico from paying these drug lords to bring them here out of fear of being in jail if caught. But most illegals try to come right back after being caught and deported.|||Federal law is much more strict than the AZ law could ever be , The Federal Law states that they may detain anyone for any reason at anytime for indefinite periods until proof of legal status is shown .

You can find the amended version here: http://www.azleg.gov/FormatDocument.asp?鈥?/a>
After you have read it and understand what it says, then form your own opinion on if it is good or not. To help, you also should research more on the federal law on immigration and see what the difference is. You will be surprised to see that there isn't too many drastic differences between the two. The major difference is that the Arizona law requires state and local law enforcement to enforce the law, which the federal does not.
My opinion on it? The only downside I see with it is that the law doesn't have enough "bite" to it. It's only a misdemeanor under this law, with just a small fine and a little jail time possible.|||First read the law. Second try to understand what the state is trying to do. Arizona is not trying to be a racist state. Arizona was tired of its citizens getting attacked and harmed by Illegals coming across the border. The Federal Government is suppose to enforce the immigration laws, but they do not have the manpower. Arizona just took responsibility and reliability off of the federal government and took it among themselves. Will and Can Racial profiling happen??? Maybe. You can not help but to detain Hispanics when they are the majority in the area.|||Fair is always subjective but here it goes.
I suppose the fairest thing would be to first read the law so any option gathered is based on first hand knowledge, not based on what political pundits (be it right or left) have given you. While most laws are giant 100 page novels full of complicated legal speak, 1070 is only 10 pages double spaced and I was able to finish it in about 30min with little head scratching. Weather you are for or against it you should read it. Critiquing a law you have not read is much like critiquing book you haven't read or a movie you never saw; it makes little sense.
How much concern should this be for America?
Well any answer would be pure opinion. The intent of the law is to mirror the Federal law that already exists making it illegal to be in this country without the proper visitation papers, visa, green card, ect... The primary difference is that originally only a Federal agent was allowed to inquire into someones immigration status (ICE agent for example). 1070 allows state and local police to do the same thing if they have "reasonable suspicion" (exact term in the law). This law is made with the noble intention of allowing the State to enforce a what AZ feels is a poorly enforced Federal Law. But will it actually play out that way? Only time can really tell.
Ultimately that is my position on the matter as well. Lets wait and see.
The one thing everyone seem to agree on is that illegal immigration is a problem. AZ just happens to think its such a problem that they are taking matters into their own hands. Lets let AZ be the test to see if such illegal activity can be controlled fairly and properly on the local level. This law will either work as intended, or it will become a tool of the racist cop. Only time will tell, in the mean time if you don't live in AZ and have not experienced the illegal immigrant issue as they have then you have no right to judge their actions.
My daughter lives in Arizona and her ex-boyfriend recently moved to NY. While they lived together they bought furniture. They split up and he left the furniture there and said he would send money to ship it to NY. Well 3 months have passed and he hasn't sent any money. She has paid for a storage unit for 3 months now. Does this furniture now belong to her?|||The minute she rented the storage unit and moved the furniture in she created a 'bailment'. Now she is required to take more than ordinary care of the items.

I stronly suggest she send the ex a certified (RRR) letter to the following example:
Dear [HIM]
As agreed, I have been waiting for you to inform me as to the disposition of items you left upon your recent move. As of the date of this letter, I have heard nothing from you regarding the items [List them]
Therefore, I find it necessary to demand that you either make arrangements to retrieve the items within 5 calendar days from receipt of this letter or I will take your lack of action as permission to dispose of the items as I see fit.
[Her name]
She satisfies the legal requirement of a demand and he is on notice. She should not do a thing until five days after she receives confirmation he signed for the letter.
Then, she can either keep the items or sell them and her bailment is over.|||Stop paying the storage and it will be auctioned off! It can never be hers.
Arizona requires parental consent for abortions, where California does not. Is it legal, therefore, for a minor to go to California and receive an abortion without parental consent?|||I don't believe that is illegal. Some states have tried to impose legislation that would make travelling to another state to get past abortion restrictions illegal, but I'm not sure if it has even passed anywhere. I would call the clinic you'd go to and ask.
Just out of curiosity, why California? You don't need parental consent in Nevada either and it is closer to Arizona.
And also, don't listen to the other posters. Do what is best for yourself and don't let other people get you down. You have your own set of morals and no one has the right to make you believe theirs. Good luck!|||http://www.optionline.org/

3. Abortion kills a baby.
Before you even know you're pregnant, your baby's heart begins to beat. At six weeks brain waves are measurable and your baby moves and responds to touch. At eight weeks she is perfectly developed, with fingers and toes, even her own set of fingerprints. By ten weeks she can squint, swallow and suck her thumb. If you tickled her nose she would move her head away. By eleven to 12 weeks all body systems are present and working.鲁 All she needs to become a healthy newborn is time and nourishment. Nothing new develops after 12 weeks! What would you name her? Rebecca? Stephanie?
They Won't Tell You . . .
4. Abortion is violent.
The most common method of abortion used in early pregnancy is suction aspiration. The cervix is forced open. A vacuum device 29 times more powerful than a home vacuum cleaner is used to suction out the "contents of the uterus."4
A D & E is performed after 16 weeks. As in the suction method, your baby is torn to pieces, but this time the abortionist uses a special instrument to tear the arms and legs from the body. he punctures her soft spot, suctions out the brain and crushed the skull, then removes the remaining body parts.
Another method done after 16 weeks is the saline abortion. A salt solution is injected into the baby's bag of waters. It poisons the baby and burns off her outer layer of skin. She actually convulses in pain for the hour or so that it takes for the solution to do its deadly job. The mother then goes into labor and gives birth to a dead baby.5
A hysterotomy (last trimester) is done by making an incision in the mother's abdomen. The unwanted child is lifted out and left to die.|||abortion is wrong it should be illegal everywhere, how about give it up for adoption. your the stupid ***** contemplating it.
