So the supremes say that arizona can enfore their laws and check on folks Id's but they have to report the ones who are found to be illegal to ICE and let the feds enfore immigration laws. Obama and his crew just said hey we're just not gonna do that. So what does a state do when it can't protect itself from invasion from another country because the federal government won't uphold the law??

Brewer lets the orator have it.......
“As though we needed any more evidence, President Obama has demonstrated anew his utter disregard for the safety and security of the Arizona people. Within the last two hours, I have been notified the Obama administration has revoked the 287(g) agreement under the authority of which Arizona law enforcement officers have partnered with the federal government in the enforcement of immigration law.
“Of course, it is no coincidence that this announcement comes immediately on the heels of the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling upholding the constitutionality of the heart of Arizona’s anti-illegal immigration law: SB 1070. It’s worth noting that 68 law enforcement entities in 24 states have functioning 287(g) agreements with the federal government. But it appears the only agreements eliminated today were those in Arizona, the state that happens to be on the front lines of America’s fight against illegal immigration. We are on our own, apparently.
“I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised. The Obama administration has fought the people of Arizona at every turn – downplaying the threat that a porous border poses to our citizens, filing suit in order to block our State from protecting itself, unilaterally granting immunity to tens of thousands of illegal aliens living in our midst, and now this. Still, the disarmament of Arizona’s 287(g) agreements is a new low, even for this administration.

I would say no since they they take more from the feds than they give.

Red states get more than they give in taxes compared to Blue states

Easy solution, they would just borrow just like the U.S. does, and I'm willing to wager that if Arizona deported the majority of illegal immigrants that money they receive would substantially go down.

Arizona won't secede

Give it a few day's to sink in and I'm confidant that the American people will
see what is really going on here, the pattern of this administration is very
clear and consistent and soon will be held accountable !

When situations like this arise you elevate the problem and in this
case the problem is Barack Hussein Obama.

Yes, Arizona should definitely secede from the Union. What a rational suggestion.

AZ would last about 5 mins before it was annexed by Mexico. Another ridiculous thread.

On the other hand... I suppose I would like if all of the fringe nuts got onto one area that would secede from the Union. Perhaps an island off of Alaska.

Specifically, what would Arizona's economy be based on if it were to be its own nation?
