Really? So when they painted swastikas on jewish stores in Germany, or in europe when there are swastikas painted on jewish tombstones, it's because the jewish store and the jew buried there were nazi esque?

NOTHING Nazi-like, though.

That dept. is left for our CiC and doesn't apply to Illegals......only middle-class, freedom-loving, capitalist, Constitution-loving, American citizens deemed as a threat to his agenda.

Hitler would be proud of him so far.
Just not proud enough.
You clearly didn't study much on history.

When Hitler risen into power in 1933 riding off of widespread hatred and distrust of Jews, he did exactly what Arizona just did, namely force Jews and other undesirables to wear identification on them at all times. Then he created various laws further discriminating them, until finally in 1942, 9 years later, he ordered the Holocaust.

The truth is, that this has NOTHING to do with so-called "illegal immigration" which doesn't even exist, it's just a lie created by racist and xenophobes, this is about whites in Arizona discriminating against all Hispanics. Because to them, there is no such thing as "legal immigration," ALL Hispanics are here "illegally" and must be deported or otherwise disposed of, immediately.

Sorry, but you're wrong, it is extremely Nazi-like.

NAFTA is not entirely the USA's fault,like always Mexico's leaders sell out their own to make a buck and then encourage their peasants to come to the US work illegally and steal from America and send their ill gotten money back to Mexico to enrich the Mexican economy at the expense of the American economy.

Wow, just wow. I don't know how much more clear I can be. I don't even want to risk my legality on this site trying to elaborate my point so it can get into your head.

Have a nice day.

Jews were citizens until they were stripped of citizenship. Illegals were never citizens and not breaking the law by even being here.

You should go try to be an illegal immigrant in europe, you'll get thrown in jail....

I never said it wasn't. At the same time repealing of it would no longer drain Mexico of work, ergo Mexicans wouldn't have to come here.

Like, the chummy friend of Russell Pearce who would not only proudly draw those swastikas but would wave it for you.

I suppose if I want to protest against the KKK I start burning crosses, right?
Nazis? Stalinists? Maoist?

That's exactly what Nazi's were saying about Jews having to display the Star of David.
I can tell you have a very limited knowledge of what happened during the Shoah which was the systematic extermination of 6,000,000 humans including Jews. And it is an insult to the memory of all those who suffered and died for you and anyone else on this thread to compare what happened during that time to what is going on in Arizona.

I'm telling you that EVERYONE is open to being asked for identification and you should carry your identification no matter what your background is WHILE YOU ARE IN ARIZONA.

If you don't have an ID go get one.

#1. There's absolutely nothing racist about this! What's racist about it? There's no such thing as a "race" first of all. And by American definitions Latino/Hispanic can be of any so-called "race" white or black.

#2. You must be profiling as we type because I have no preconceived notion of what an ILLEGAL looks like, because I have seen ILLEGAL French, Nigerian, Brazilian, Spanish, Mexican, and Irish since I've been in Los Angeles and I know Illegal has one thing in common. See #3.

#3. ILLEGAL means EXACTLY what it used to mean back during the Ellis Island days 'W.O.P' With-Out Papers.

When you have millions of people who DO NOT BELONG HERE what do you suggest we do? Let them continue leeching us dry? 23,000,000 people unchecked and undocumented?

Arizona has said "enough" and it's high time every state in the union follows suit.
