I don't necessarily like SB1070 here in AZ, but what I don't like is
the fact that we actually had to pass it to get recognition of the
problem. When large areas of Arizona are post "Keep Out" due to an
infestation of drug and human smugglers then we have a serious problem.
I think someone, (Newt Gingrich?) said we need a high fence and a wide
gate. (God I hope it wasn't Newt, I've never liked him since that hokey
'contract with America')
Make it easier to come in legally and
harder to come in illegally.
To me it's that no one seems to get
the "illegal" part of "illegal immigrant". When your first act upon
entering the US is to break the law then I'm not that kindly disposed
towards you. However I think that if you want to come here and work
that you should be able to register at the border and be required to
find work within a reasonable amount of time.
But if you're
coming here to break the law then you're on your own bucko. And just
being tossed back across the border is not half enough.
