@1RedshirtXLG Read the other comments on this page about racial profiling and others on YouTube itself for clarification.
Obviously, it's Governor Jan Brewer and those on the capital lay fault for letting their state being broke by blowing millions on pork projects. The people only have themselves to blame for not causing an uproar and firing the politicians as any real job would do.

I whole heartedly disagree that this will encourage racial profiling as it is strictly prohibited in the law. I believe cops have better things to do than to harrass people because of their ethnic background, a few bad apples don't represent everyone else. And the governor has said that she could use the state's National Guard but the state as you know is broke. If this law is unconstitutional, then the government should be sued for having the same laws in their books. I'm done.

@1RedshirtXLG Ask yourself why hasn't the politicians in Arizona invoke their right to secure their borders with guards? It's not OK to invite racial profiling through law as this. If the law was good it wouldn't resort to violating the peoples rights to do it.
The hatred the feds brought to the states in manners like the minute men who have racists despite being in the minority. Forgetting about liberty & freedom is never OK it's a slap to those people who sacrificed their lives.

"I do not know what else the states can do but to have guards patrol or secede."
And that is percisely why I support Arizona on this. The government is unwilling to the job it was set out to do and so they are taking the law into their own hands. Albiet vigilantism isn't always the wise course of action, but it's better than letting the problem fester till it blows up. That's why I look to the 10th ammendment.

@1RedshirtXLG I do not know what else the states can do but to have guards patrol or secede. The chances of even seceding from the union are very low. The only state I am aware of that can secede with success is Texas, they don't call it the lone state for nothing.
Texas can support themselves without the rest of the country unlike some other states. Ultimately the people decide & in today's era the people continue to rather be stepped on then to stop the governments ineptitude.

@1RedshirtXLG That question is obvious, as the Judge in the clip even mentioned - The federal government are since they have sole jurisdiction over immigration law Supremacy Clause Article VI Clause 2 of the US Constitution. States have no jurisdiction even with the 10th since they gave up power when joining the union as been said. Arizona can protect it's citizens with the national guard such as yourself as it states on your channel page or threaten to secede.

I agree that government agencies such as Social Securitie and the departments(or Ministries as I look at them) violate the constitution. But when the federal government is reluctant in acting or rather refuses to enforce their own laws, then what are the states suppose to do?

@1RedshirtXLG The administration refuse to protect the people of Arizona which lead to such a law to even be thought of. Arizona has solutions they can bring to the table to protect it's citizens like Judge's 2 examples.
Since Obama doesn't give a rats ass for the people as he's trying to get the debt ceiling raised, nothing is going to be done about immigration. The states have to do what's right for the people not the feds. The feds are growing in power soon states won't have nothing.

I did answer it. No it isn't and I cited examples. I'll take a libertarian stance here and say one could make the case that having to produce an ID to make a purchase violates their constitutional rights. You still have yet to answer my question; does the United States Federal Government violate the Constitution by having the same laws on immigration?
We're going in circles so I'll end the discussion here.

@1RedshirtXLG The states of Arizona of those of other imposing such laws as in this clip does violate the peoples rights. I read the law as usual states & the feds ignore what's written in the constitution.
They use trickery words to get around the constitution this is a long practice they have been doing for decades look at Patriot Act, Social Security, & many more examples & the people let this continue.
What this is being done is securing a police state, if you can't see it then plz look.
