Nor do their advocates have any valid arguments for misrepresenting this law either.

Are you serious? Political suicide? And how, no WHY would you equate this decision as a "move from discrimination" when it in fact was not discriminatory. Did you read the bill? They only dummied it down so people like you would be able to understand that it never was about discrimination. It's about enforcing our laws, for those here illegally, like aliens...

And you claim political victory, geez...please say you are not the future of this country. I doubt you were even alive when discrimination was a REAL issue in this country.

No, she didn't retract anything. She just improved the language of the bill for clarity. Yes, Arizonians have spoken. 70% of them support this new law.

This law isn't about discrimination. If so, point it out in the law.

What is this apartheid you speak about? I don't know of one that occured a few decades ago. Besides, anything that occured in the past doesn't mean it will happen again and has no bearing on this new law anyway.

Again, there was no racist law and there still isn't. We keep asking you to point out in the bill the racist part and you never do. Why is that?

Arizona has a rep for being regressive in it's political veiws anyway, remember MLK day? And how hard they fought not to legalize it? In this case b/c of the drug related murders and kidknappings they (politicians) felt that they had to do something. They would have done better by legalizing pot.

It is mostly Latinos who scream 'racism'. I do not hear the 'brown' Italian Americans whining about it. Oh well.

Why? Nearly 270 million are smart enough to read it and understand it's "not".
