One thing people need to be very aware of is that they only denied an emergency injunction to block the law. Hearings are later this year. A couple of things could still happen, they could allow the lower courts ruling that the law is Constitutional, or they could invalidate it as un-Constitutional. In other words, don’t claim a victory and move on just yet, as worst case scenario, they could invalidate the law, then businesses go back to business-as-usual, and you’re right back where you started.

If the economy continues to deteriorate-------that alone would likely force the courts to uphold the assorted anti illegal immigrant laws.
One thing about our culture: we are slow to anger; once enraged--------look out!. Read that there will likely be mass deportations------with all Anchor Babies age 17 on down being stripped of their birthright citizenship.
