Wouldn't address the remarks I made in my post, would you? Why is that? I don't call being opposed to illegal immigration and not desiring rewarding violators with amnesty as being obsessed. If you want to talk about obsession how about the numerous Hispanics who think their illegal amigos should be above our laws and rewarded for breaking them including blackmailing our politicans for votes, marching in our streets for lawbreakers and calling anyone who is not up for their agenda a racist, xenophobe, etc. Now that's obsession!

So you were there legally.........

Keep it coming, GOP... thats ALL us Dems want... Just keep it coming
That same law needs to be in 50 states; not just 1.

It says the bill was introduced not passed. It was introduced to the state house of representatives by a republican rep. that's all.

I dare say I could as I have a well paying professional career and a graduate degree in a hard science. Also the NHS worked very well when I was visiting family in the UK and broke a bone.

I understand where you're coming from Arizona, when I lived there I had a pretty serious medical emergency (that wasn't readily apparent) and the 2 times I tried going to the ER, the wait was eight hours. Because people (both legal and illegal) use the ER if they have even just the sniffles. I see where you're going with this Arizona, I appreciate you are thinking outside the box, but there are probably many better options to take care of the problems in your state that won't cause an outbreak of TB.

Reasons #3,581, 3,582, & 3,583 why I left Arizona.

You are always ranting about big government, yet you support police state policies. Some rebel.

So I guess going after American lawbreakers is big government and puts us in a police state then? Gee, I guess we'd better stop that, right?

Not really. We are most generous here. Not complaining - that's what makes the US better than them.
