This is no less than sad. I will be donating. I also try to make online purchases from Arizona vendors.
I would like to thank the people of Arizona for standing behind your governor through the trials of trying to implement 1070. You are the new trail blazers and should be proud. Good luck in this pursuit and I hope my state will be following shortly. We were one of the 9 filing an amicas brief in support of the law. It looks as if Virginia may have had some success today regarding immigration and health care.

Automatic rifles? The Mex drug cartels have no problem obtaining them (M-16/M-4's) from deserting Mexican soldiers. Perhaps Pinal can cut a deal with the Federales who sieze these things by the carload on a regular basis?

I just sent $50. The feds would rather burn the weapons they seize than share them with our sheriffs department. Every little job we get in we will send a small donation.

Sadly, 45acp . . . most of those Mexican Federales' weapons were purchased by the U. S, Taxpayers via Aid to Mexico while the "Fat Cat Corruptos" continue to get even FATTER.

I agree Bummer. And if Mexico would have held up their end of the NAFTA treaty maybe we wouldn't be being invaded from the south. It boggles my mind to think that we continue to send money to Mexico knowing full well that they are giving instructions to their nationals on how to come here illegally.

You really have to wonder if the fat cats are all south of the border. Could it be that major contributers (Hollywood, I mean what do THEY want) are also greasing pockets north of the border?

I just can't come up with a logical reason that our president would side with a foreign country against one of the states he vowed to protect. I realize votes is the major factor but in trying to get the Hispanic vote he is alienating independants as well as democrats. Seems to me there has to be more to it. JMHO
