Why are they passing a LOCAL law about this, when there's already a FEDERAL law that says the exact same thing!?


EPGAH:
It is called "feel good" legislation.  The politician gets to tell his constituents "look I tried to get rid of those_________________fill in the blank with the designated hate group (jews,catholics,niggers,spics,gooks...klingons)...the unconstitutional legislation is struck down by the courts and the politician gets to walk around patting him/herself on the back.

My point is, his law didn't really make any new rules, he just provided consequences for breaking the existing laws...Why is he "the bad guy" for that? (Make any parenting jokes you like...This DOES sound like Dr. Phil's parenting advice...and hundreds of other "experts": Provide consequences for misbehavior--and actually follow through with it...Of course, a site about Doms and subs might not be a good place to discuss consequences, right?)
And the Constitution already SUPPORTS it...Secondarily, doesn't American law only apply to Americans? Or at least those who don't "feel" the law applies to them also don't get its protections?

EPGAH, very good questions!
In Massachusetts if you don't pay child support you can lose your driver's lisense.
But,.....if you're an illegal alien the Police don't enforce that law because they figure you'll just get another phoney driver's lisense or simply just drive anyway.
And if they kill someone in a DUI they bond out and just "dissapear" to another state and get more phoney I.D.
And, if you're dealing with an illegal alien that's a whole other problem, you really don't know who you're talking with!
They could be wanted for murder in another state and you wouldn't know it.
Or sneeze on you and give you Tuberculosis.

There are already penalties for breaking the law.

He is the bad guy because he is trying to make unpaid cops out of ordinary citizens.  If you are a property owner and someone comes to rent a house or an apartment from you how do you verify that they are citizens of this country.  If you make a mistake you could loose your property.

Actually it applies to everyone who is here except perhaps politicians.

Or at least those who don't "feel" the law applies to them also don't get its protections?
Well by extension that might include any law breaker like speeders or those who smoke in non designated areas...so if they were not protected by the law then the cops could just shoot them.
The big question here is how can we tell if someone is really a citizen.

Maybe, but deportation has become at best, a "catch&release" recycling program for criminals, and at worst, a revolving door that DESERVES to be a laughingstock for foreign criminals! Do you accept termites moving into your house, or do you call a "removal specialist"?

He is the bad guy because he is trying to make unpaid cops out of ordinary citizens.  If you are a property owner and someone comes to rent a house or an apartment from you how do you verify that they are citizens of this country.  If you make a mistake you could lose your property.
Well, you CAN look up Social Security numbers, and make sure it matches the person who's applying. If the person's number is marked as "dead", or another state/race/etc., that becomes a very good clue...My own identity was recently "assumed" by an outsider, but they caught him: A 230-some pound illegal in New York using my identity is very likely NOT the same as 184-pound Caucasian in Missouri...

Are you saying then, that occupancy confers ownership? Do I own your house/car/boat as soon as I enter it?

Or at least those who don't "feel" the law applies to them also don't get its protections?
Well by extension that might include any law breaker like speeders or those who smoke in non designated areas...so if they were not protected by the law then the cops could just shoot them.
Smoking isn't really a LAW except in fuel dumps...for semi-obvious reasons...and oddly, most insurance policies have "weasel clauses" that provide exemptions "if involved in commission of a felony"! Do you or do you not advocate shooting of those who enter your property without your permission? If the BORDERS were enforced, this would be a non-issue!
But they keep entering, expecting amnesty, and lately, arrogantly DEMANDING rights that are supposed to be reserved for citizens...And then they want us to provide schooling, food, even official documents in THEIR language, at no cost to them--the taxpayers foot the bill!
The big question here is how can we tell if someone is really a citizen.
Social Security numbers and linguistic fluency are good gauges...231 years should be JUST long enough for immigrants, with or without consent, to learn American English, right?
Consent is the real issue here...We don't mind helping, but ASK FIRST, and in LIMITED QUANTITIES...Much like you wouldn't mind giving money to the homeless, but you wouldn't open your home to unlimited numbers of them, right? And if you do, you could fully expect small, valuable items--especially electronics and jewelry--to turn up "missing". In America at large, we have "assisted housing", "free" medicine and schooling, etc...But the taxpayers still pay for it, and therefore, illegals ARE a net loss, since they breed more, and therefore take more, than they put in.

Sounds likes something you should be mad at bush about....

But until I hear a better solution for stoping illegal aliens then I think that you all should look at how your ansestors got here 90% of them WERE NOT LEGAL. Just becuase they got ducmentation leter that said they were doesn't mean they actualy come over here legally

Jhin, both sets of my grandparents came to this country legally from Ireland and I have the paperwork to prove it.
Are you suggesting that because someone's ancesters snuck into the country we should let other people sneak into our country?

Oh Boy! Here we go again!
They said on the News that this Judge, a Clinton appointee, was "aware that The Congress had passed a law making it legal for Local and State police agencies to enforce Immigration law but that,....***"he didn't think it was right***"
A FUCKING Activist Judge!
The ***WHOLE US CONGRESS*** who represent ***THE AMERICAN PEOPLE*** passes this law and this piss ant judge "doesn't think it's right."
HE thinks HIS thoughts trump the Congress.
And The People.

The founding fathers did not intend for the constitution to protect foreign nationals. That is an invented liberal spin of constitutional law that has for some reason become common law.

If the constitution protects non-citizens the same way it protects citizens...then would someone explain to me the difference between a citizen and a non-citizen? It obviously isn't voting because the damn Democrats don't want pollworkers to verify photo IDs.

One reason the founders didn't want to give constitutional rights to foreign nationals is because they were worried about enemy infiltration. This is also the reasoning behind the constitution making it mandatory for you to be born in America to run for President. If you were born outside the United States, you cannot run for president even if you are a legal citizen who has been here since the age of 1.

Will you *EVER* understand that the Constitution ONLY DELEGATES LIMITED AUTHORITY TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT?

And those limitations are ABSOLUTE, and *should be clearly understood to be absolute* via the 9th and 10th Amendments?

I may not be the best person to ask about termites...I live in an appliance box in the middle of the mojave desert where 125 degree temps discourage termites, but I do understand your point.  If you are talking about criminals in the normal sense (rape,pillage and plunder) those folks need a visit to the cross bar motel.  If you are classifying an undocumented worker as a criminal then my question is what do you want to do?  If you want to "exterminate" them we could probably get the plans for the ovens from  AG Farber (I think they were the oven makers for Hitler) but we would need quite a few more than he had since there about a hundred million poverty stricken people south of the boarder.  While that would solve your catch and release problem it most likely would generate a lot of bad press.  If the politicians just did to those who employed then what they do to whores and dope dealers then the demand would end and there would be no more undocumented laborers.  Of course that would most likely raise the cost of labor to the point where citizens would take the jobs now taken by slaves.

Why is he "the bad guy" for that?
He is the bad guy because he is trying to make unpaid cops out of ordinary citizens.  If you are a property owner and someone comes to rent a house or an apartment from you how do you verify that they are citizens of this country.  If you make a mistake you could lose your property.
Well, you CAN look up Social Security numbers, and make sure it matches the person who's applying.

As a land lord or potential employer just how would you go about checking their social security number.  Are you suggesting that a person who is not white cannot have a name like Jones or Smith or any other Anglo sounding name and what of Latino citizens how do we know that Jose Martinez is this one or that one.  As I mentioned previously there is no such thing as a forgery proof ID.  So how do we go about telling the true citizen from the not true citizen?

(Make any parenting jokes you like...This DOES sound like Dr. Phil's parenting advice...and hundreds of other "experts": Provide consequences for misbehavior--and actually follow through with it...Of course, a site about Doms and subs might not be a good place to discuss consequences, right?)

Actually it applies to everyone who is here except perhaps politicians.
Are you saying then, that occupancy confers ownership? Do I own your house/car/boat as soon as I enter it?
Having the law apply to everyone equally is not the same thing and I am sorry if you perceive it that way.
 
 

Or at least those who don't "feel" the law applies to them also don't get its protections?
Well by extension that might include any law breaker like speeders or those who smoke in non designated areas...so if they were not protected by the law then the cops could just shoot them.
Smoking isn't really a LAW except in fuel dumps.
I am afraid you are mistaken...there are SO many places where it is illegal to smoke besides fuel dumps.
 
 
..for semi-obvious reasons...and oddly, most insurance policies have "weasel clauses" that provide exemptions "if involved in commission of a felony"!
I would agree that if you use your car in the commission of a felony and crash it in the process the insurance may be able to weasel out of paying you for it...but then who knows how skillful of a lawyer you might hire.
 
Do you or do you not advocate shooting of those who enter your property without your permission?
If you think you have the right to shoot someone because they are on your property without your permission I would beg you to consult an atourney as soon as possible.  Simple trespass seldom confers the authority to respond with lethal force.  As for what I would advocate...I have killed all the people I plan on killing for the rest of my life.  I have been out of the military for thirty some  years and in all that time I have never had a serious enough reason to take another mans life...
 
 If the BORDERS were enforced, this would be a non-issue!
But they keep entering, expecting amnesty, and lately, arrogantly DEMANDING rights that are supposed to be reserved for citizens
Perhaps you would tell me just what they are demanding.
You might want to acquaint yourself with the background of Latinos in the U.S.  you may find some of your ideas are less than accurate.
 
 
...And then they want us to provide schooling, food, even official documents in THEIR language, at no cost to them--the taxpayers foot the bill!
If I come into your store and give you money for goods am I not entitled to them?  Property taxes pay for schools so if one lives most anyplace besides under a bridge then they pay property taxes either directly with their mortgage or indirectly with rent which goes to pay the mortgage.
We have no official language in this country so it is the governments job to make itself understood to all of its citizens.
 
 
 

The big question here is how can we tell if someone is really a citizen.
Social Security numbers and linguistic fluency are good gauges...231 years should be JUST long enough for immigrants, with or without consent, to learn American English, right?
Well I have been to Boston and it took me a while to understand those folks and I have been to Louisiana and I am here to tell you that Cajun, while beautiful to listen to, is damn near undecipherable.  I lived in east Texas as a child and I defy anyone to explain the difference between y'all and all o y'all...but those who speak it claim there is a difference.
The U.S. did not spring full grown 231 years ago.  We took every inch of this country (with the possible exception of Alaska) at the point of a gun.  We have made promises to those whom we have signed treaties with and broken every one of them...The word of the U.S. government is not worth spit.  
I still have my original social security card....it says right on it "not to be used for identification".  We were promised when we allowed social security to become law that it would never be used as a national ID.,, so much for another promise from the federal government.
 
 

Consent is the real issue here...We don't mind helping, but ASK FIRST, and in LIMITED QUANTITIES.
Did we ask Mexico? Did we ask Hawaii?Did we ask Spain?
 
 
..Much like you wouldn't mind giving money to the homeless,
I do not give money to the homeless.
 
 but you wouldn't open your home to unlimited numbers of them, right?
Any one who wants to come live here with me is more than welcome....The closest paved road is two miles away.  The closest power line is six miles away.  The closest water source is fifteen miles away.  The closest real town is thirty miles away.  As for stealing my stuff ...just point out the pile of rusty iron crap you are enamored of and I will help you load it.
 
 And if you do, you could fully expect small, valuable items--especially electronics and jewelry--to turn up "missing"
The closest thing I have to jewelry I have is a set of dog tags that I have modified into a roach clip.
 
. In America at large, we have "assisted housing", "free" medicine and schooling, etc
I have noticed that we have a lot of welfare for the rich in my country but the poof get pretty much the left overs.
 
 
...But the taxpayers still pay for it, and therefore, illegals ARE a net loss, since they breed more, and therefore take more, than they put in.
As I have pointed out before that is not true.

Again, the illegals are committing a crime just by being in America. We have a way to enter this country legally. If you dont want to do it....tough you shouldnt be here. End of story.
The constitution is designed to protect Americans.
We are being invaded from the south. They move into our cities, force us to learn their language, sue us if we dont. They bring crime and poverty with them.
They want us to conform to them.
That is not the way America works. You want to live in America you adapt to America, not the other way around.
Ballots should be in English and no other language. How can you possibly make an informed vote if you dont speak the language?
All people should have a photo ID when you go to register to vote and when you actually vote(I havent heard of a state yet that does not issue state ID's at a reasonably low cost)

(and btw the way there is an exception to the law requiring you to be born in the US to be president, if you are born overseas to military parents you are eligable to run, correct me if i'm wrong but I think Truman was the president who was born overseas...)

What is the difference between a citizen and a non-citizen if the Constituion grants the same rights to both as this court just ruled?

According to the Constitution the only significant differences betwen citizens and non citizens is that non citizens may not hold the described elected offices, POTUS, VPOTUS, Senator and Representative. Based on the text of the document a President could legally appoint a non citizen to SCOTUS or to his cabinet if he could get Senate approval.

The rules for electing Representatives and Senators is up to the states and nothing in the Constitution says that only citizens are allowed to vote in any of those elections.

Go read where they use the word CITIZEN in the Constitution, rather than ANY PERSON.

I would suspect electing representatives would be one.

If you are talking about local law as in a state law?

Well that is enforceabe by the states and no one needs to beg the federal governemt to do the job.  Now the state has the power to push the issue through local laws.  assuming local is state.

The use of drivers licenses to prevent travel is unconstitutional!

We are really talking about a convenience here.  The convenience of using a car, and suspending the use of your investment. the car.

     I live in a largely hispanic community and I've been speaking Spanish since I was 13.
 
     My oldest son's mother was half Puerto Rican and half Cuban. Her father got into a boat and rowed to Puerto Rico, when the beard took over so, he was an illegal. He taught me a lot. He taught me that this country is great and that those who are lucky enough to live here should recognize and understand it. He also taught me that he was a criminal and, if he were ever caught, he would deserve to be banished from this country and sent away from his family because he broke the law to get here.
 
     My ex father in law (a different person) was born in another country so, since he couldn't get papers to come here, legally, he joined the U.S. Military and, after serving his four years was granted citizenship (a practice in which the military still engages, to the best of my knowledge).
 
     People that enter this country illegally ARE criminals and they do bleed our society of precious resources. They do, indeed, come over here and expect special privileges. I appear to be white and if I started a business and put a help wanted ad in the paper and made one of the requirements "Must speak english", my chestnuts would get roasted (and I might even do some time in jail). I have been on job interviews where I was told that I MUST speak Spanish in order to secure employment. I'm lucky. I do but, why should a person born, raised and planning on living ALL of their life in America be forced to learn a foreign language?
 
      As someone stated; the constitution is NOT meant to apply to ALL people except in as much as how we treat law breakers ie; once we identify an illegal immigrant, they are subject to arrest. They have a right not to give evidence against themselves. They have a right to a court-appointed attorney. They have a right to a swift and speedy trial/ They do NOT have a right to thumb their nose at us and our way of life and say: "I broke the law to get here. Now, that's your tough shit. Give me a job. Learn my language or I'll get the American Communist Liberties Union after you!"
