The Susan Bolton temporary injunction prohibits police officers from enforcing the part of the AZ STATE LAW against being in the state illegally. It does not prohibit police officers from questioning someone detained about their citizenship, and turning that person over to ICE if they have reason to believe that person is in the country illegally. That has not changed.
Some constitutional authorities claim that Susan Bolton has no constitutional authority to rule on certain state issues, including SB 1070. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
It amazes me, that there is more sympathy for the Cartels, illegals (who ever they are or where they come from or what their intentions are) than those that are actually upholding the laws of the land; PROTECTING YOUR HOMES, YOUR FAMILIES, YOUR SCHOOLS, YOUR CHILDREN!
Our border patrol, our citizens are in harms way with this ravenous drug culture, which WE have allowed into our country! Doesn't anyone see what the Cartels are doing to Mexico?
When it comes to your neighborhood, then you'll be crying for the law enforcement to help you. But, oh, they can't because law enforcement might get sued for "profiling"!
The foreign criminal elements are well aware of our weakness, and unwillingness to enforce our existing laws. DHS tells us that Mexican drug cartels are running drug distribution operations in 267+ of our major cities. The cartels are brazen enough to set up marijuana growing operations in our national parks, and national forests. They use illegal alien labor, working off their debt for being smuggled into our country. On the national news, you see the plants being "busted" and ripped up, but no one is ever arrested. Why? Mexican drug cartels have even set up communication relay towers in the Arizona desert! Again, the radio relay stations are discovered and taken down, but no one is arrested! Are our law enforcement authorities already intimidated by, and afraid to confront the powerful Mexican drug cartels operating in our country? Or, are they bribing our authorities in order to operate in our country? It's very suspicious when there are big drug busts with no arrests.
We have to quickly wake up and insist that all of our laws be enforced. ALL illegal aliens must be rounded up and deported, and those who employ them prosecuted in accordance with the existing laws. The Mexican drug cartel problem and the illegal alien problem are one and the same. If we can't control WHO comes into our country, we can't control WHAT comes into our country.
If we have proper control the border, there will be no fighting between the Mexican drug cartels for drug corridors into the US. If we continue to ignore the nature of the threat, we will soon see the cartel assasinations spill across the border into our country. These people have no respect for borders, and will use whatever tactics are necessary to accomplish their objectives. Assasination is a powerful tool that they have proved to work and be very effective in Mexico. Anyone who believes that this will stop at the border is a total fool. "Plata o Plumbo".
