I would agree.....With the way the Court is tilted right now, I would say AZ has a great chance of it be supported...

Unfortunately it just looks like a PR move for the upcoming election. None of those states have measures they are trying to pass, just stating that they "support" arizona.

Hopefully this is just a sign of things to come. After the Novemer elections, I would like to hope that more states will be backing the AZ law and passing similar laws of their own.

Of course you feel the same about those that have condemned Arizona and it's efforts.

I don't know... the tide might be turning:
Quote:
Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Utah are in the process of writing immigration laws that are similar to the now federally contested Arizona immigration law and they all feel that when their legislative sessions begin in 2011 that there is a very good chance they will pass these laws. There are also seventeen other states that are preparing similar laws to Arizona, but as of right now it appears as if these bills will not become law.[SIZE=1] [/SIZE]

I know, but in the court of public opinion, this is huge!
