Immigration Enforcement

From ThinkProgress.com:

Arizona, Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik, who has been a cop for 52 years, says the controversial immigration law will definitely lead to racial profiling. He told local TV station KGUN9 that the law is “racist,” “digusting,” and “unnecessary,” and he won’t enforce it. While the law may not explicitly mandate profiling, Dupnik said that there’s no way to enforce it without doing so; the “lawful contact” provision will become nothing but a “flimsy excuse” to target certain people.

Last night on Fox News, former Alaska governor Sarah Palin criticized opponents of Arizona’s draconian new anti-immigration legislation, SB-1070, for making it into a “racial issue” by “perpetuating this myth that racial profiling is a part of this law.”

As usual, host Sean Hannity agreed with her, saying, “It does not encourage profiling. It specifically prohibits it.” Supporters of the law like to stress that police will be able to question people only during “lawful contact,” such as a traffic stop.

    I say good for him. I would say to any Sheriff or law man, to each his / her own. They (law enforcement) on all levels have always had the disecretion to enforce or not enforce any law they choose.

    you have to be a race before it is racial profiling.

    The economy is very bad right now so people are looking for someone to blame and this time Latinos is the scapegoat. Arizona maybe the first state to pass SB-1070 into law but trust me Arizona isn’t going to be the last. The law don’t make sense if you are a U.S citizen you won’t need immigration papers and if you are here illegally you won’t have immigration papers. So a cop can basically arrest you for not having papers; cops can ask to see your papers if they suspect you of being an illegal immigrate. How do illegally immigrates look? Is there a certain look only people who came here illegally have?

    The government is really f**king over brown people. Black people better watch out we could be next. Black and Brown people we need to stick together because we are in the same boat. Don’t think because our president is black and there is a Latina on the supreme court racism is dying it is alive and well. The new law SB-1070 is proof of that.

    For those of you that have not read this law, READ IT!! I know that black people are notorious for not reading sh!t, but try doing so this time. The law prohibits racial profiling by the cops and other law enforcement officials. A cop can’t simply walk up to you in the streets and ask for your papers… ONLY during lawful contact and ONLY if they have probable cause. But I say this… If you are here legally, what the F*CK are you worried about?? I have been in this country LEGALLY for over 25 years and have never had anything to fear because I am SUPPOSED to be here.

    This law is simply an extension of the federal law that is already in place. Since Obama and his lackey’s won’t enforce it, who’s left?? The states have an autonomous right to secure the safety of their LAWFUL residents. And to question the legality of this law WITHOUT questioning the legality of that assenine health care law makes no sense whatsoever. These people are breaking the law, plain and simple; laws that are in place to ensure the safety of the American people.

    1. Doc**entation ensures that people’s backgrounds are properly checked prior to entrance. In that way, we make sure that we are not letting in any wanted criminals from whatever country they are coming from.
    2. Inoculation ensures that people are not bringing in diseases that would endanger the health and welfare of the general public… or must we forget H1N1…

    The last time I checked, none of them were ever shot 41 times while trying to reach for their ID, or beaten viciously by a mob of police officers. They did not participate in any of the fights that the past generations and leaders endured in order to secure the rights and freedoms of black Americans. So think carefully about who you are choosing to stand behind. Remember, THEY also held blacks as slaves, just like white America did.

    Man I get racially profiled by cops daily, I even had cops admit the job made him racist against his own kind. I feel no sympathy especially when my broke ass has to pay taxes while fence hoppers don’t eff that. You only add to the national debt. This is America and the only color that matters is green. So get a “green” card and pay taxes and I don’t mind you staying here. Blacks and Arabs had to deal wit racial profiling so do u welcome to the greatest country in the world.

    all you have to do inorder to stop a law or a popular concept is to attach it to a dispicable lable and mission accomplished. On touching the Arizona law,anytime the law is enforced there is a chance of racial profiling, I remember back in the 80′s when drugs were being transported via airplane by Black dealers,I noticed the extreme scrutiny given to me the only blackman in numerous lines in and out of Honolulu and LAX airports at the time.I was pained by it to some degree but understanding nonetheless, afterall, the custom agents didnt know me and the alert level for people fitting my description was understandably high.If we are honest as Black people and Hispanics, we would admit that we have our own type or tendency to racially profile whites and eachother as well:when the D.C. sniper was running around rampantly killing everyone from grandma’s to grandpa’s our initial suspicion or PROFILE was that of a crazed socially rejected White man untill we found out that the sniper was Black,the incident I mentioned concerning the Airport involved mostly Hispanic law enforcement officers who dilligently searched and researched my items with a voracity not applied to white passengers.In Hispanic countries,the economic condition for blacks is abject even for that region,Colombian paramilitary fighters actually seek out and kill young black children at night as a solution to keeping them off of the streets to discourage tourists, every black neighborhood in Cuba is constantly guarded,watched and scrutinized by White Cuban Militia-men all indicative of a deeply ingrained hatred Latinos have for Blacks or in other words,”PROFILING” so I marvel at a people whose practice of being discriminatory themselves be so intent on claiming it against others,its amazing how clearly we can see when we are the ones being threatened.Black America, trust me,believe me,this Arizona Law is one of the best things to happen for Blacks and Legal -American born Hispanics two groups who find themselves fighting against illegals who take their jobs,use up federal recources designed to help Americans and bring a very deadly drug war that so blatently disrespectfull of the law that it leaves scores of law enforcement agents dead on the streets of Juarez and set poised to copy its modis -operandi in places such as Atlanta and El Paso.

    Getting back TO THE SUBJECT, If this sheriff refuses to enforce the law, then that’s his ass on the line. If he doesnt mind losing his job then oh well, that’s him.

    How hard is it to carry around a drivers license, social security card, and green card. The best time cops to check for immigration status is at the immigration rallies. I bet about half is illegals. The law is totally legal all they doing is enforcing the federal law at state level. Someone has to enforce a federal law. I guess its cool for a state not to enforce murders and bank robberies.

    I’m an African American Woman and I grew Up In Los Angeles and I saw the City get taken over by Illegal Mexicans who are now very egotistical with this “cant nobody do nothing to us and where taking over” attitude!! Black’s in L.a have been drastically effected by the influx of Illegals coming into their neighborhood and having a racist attitude,taking jobs that a lot of African Americans need especially now in a recession..I’m in L.A where you walk into a Burger King and its totally worked by illegal Mexicans that speak Spanish and cant communicate with you at all!! and they not hiring nobody but themselves, and you wonder (HUH Am I in Mexico or American?) I’m from L.A where there’s race riots Because the Mexicans really and truly want blks to get to stepping!! When a Race of People come into the United states the wrong way and insist upon staying that way,they come in and hate you,dont want nothing to do with you,dont speak,dont interact with you,They make their own Businesses and exclude you!! (I walked into a Domino’s Pizza one time and saw the Menu only in Spanish and saw a Job Application Only in Spanish!!! How could this be???) They insist upon never learning the language,drive right along side of you (crashing and killing soo many folks) They work on the job with you and clearly show you that they are for themselves (do you know how many times I saw Mexicans be for themselves in such a selfish nature!!) I used to work a Universal Studio’s and had a warrobe guy Throw my clothes at me and not speak and say Hello or give me any customer service when I went to go get my uniform yet would smile and speak in Spanish to his own people I saw a guy that worked at the cafeteria refuse to give me what I asked for why? have no clue to this day but when I went to the head and complained he was soo nice and respectful then!!! These 2 guys were both soo disgustingly disrespectful and hateful to black’s that I had to report them and they Both were Illegal Mexicans over here comfortable as Hell!! and showing me exactly what they thought of Black’s) I Know I’m a nice person I show Love to folks and I just get an overwhelming feeling from majority of Mexicans (Not all Mexicans) that they don’t have Love back.

    Don’t tell me blks are not suffering but the 40 million illegal Mexicans who have sneaked over here and have made the place Hell!!! Whats happening in Arizona is not Racist!!! I repeat it is not Racist!!!! I know the difference between Racism and Americans finally saying enough is a damn Enough!!! Illegal Mexicans are crying foul because they dont want their Jig to be up!! This is their worst nightmare to be asked ” Hey wheres your papers? can you prove that your American?”..Some have been over here for Yrs!!! Yet as a People they have not thought to themselves “Hmm while no one’s bothering us let’s go become citizens so that no one can ever change a law and mess up our good thing”..let me go and become a legal citizen! Noooo…they still sitting here using the medical system,the education system,the welfare system, Not Paying Taxes,their able to get any job they want,buy a house,have a bank account,get an apartment,buy a car and drive right by me without a license,get married,have their babies,and live their lives and when we as a nation say “NOPE!! your going to have to prove that your Legal” they say that’s Racist BULL!!! that’s called Justice…that’s called Being Fair…I have a good Friend who is filipino and her and her family had a lifetime Visa to travel over here to American and back to the Philippines..and because her and her family enjoyed America and worked over here They all decided to become citizens!! Mind you they didn’t have to because they had a lifetime Visa..but I saw her study for that test and stress and make her english become a little bit better and go and become a citizen and I was proud of her…THAT’S WHAT I RESPECT!!! What the Illegal Mexican is doing from sneaking over and never ever making it right to me that’s soo Lame and it speaks Volumes about the Character of a People Look I know Black Folks have our Issues too Mexicans probally have all kinds of stories about what some Black person did or said to them..and any injustice in this world is Injustice!! ..but something is wrong when you wanna be soo selfish and you wanna Use but when asked to make it right you give excuses!! and Yell Racism when its just really Folks asking you to obey the law and do the right thing.

    Mexicans Ya’ll are going to have to put ya money where ya mouth is!!! and I feel no remorse for ya!!! Either you become Americans and stop with the many many sob stories and excuses,or one day you probally are going to have to live a life full of running around ducking and dodging and trying to hide and live this silly life of hiding until they say go back..If I was you I would never want anyone to have soo much power over my head!! Get it together and stop using this nation so much and become correct!! and to all the blk folks acting like this is such an outrage and comparing this to the 60′s civil rights movement,,shame on you!! that means you dont know your history if you believe this to be racism!!! its not the same thing at all..blk folks was never over here sneaking into America..our history here in America was waaay much more harsher and violent,,,what we was asking for in America was different then a race of people being scared to death of being found out that they crossed over the border and are living here and are not suppose to be over here yet they are…and no ones doing nothing about it!!! and remember and look back on blk issues that made headlines from (Don Imus saying nappy Headed hoes,to the Jenna 6,to Hurricane Katrina,to all the police profiling that has happened to Blks,to Just recently Haiti and the earthquake) and I never saw once Mexican Leaders,or the Illegal Mexican give a damn and act outraged!! or help protest or speak out on it!! You wanna know why?? all they care about are their issues and needs…Mexicans are deep with the sense of (LA RAZA) Blk’s are constantly saying “Us blk and brown folks gotta stick together” we try and involve them…but when they speak to one another,,they say “Us Brown folks gotta stick together”..see the difference??…and Blk folks better wake up to that!!!

    I wish that more states such as California and Texas would do this..I wish for demands that Jobs dont say (Must be Bilingual) I should not have to learn Spanish to take a Job here in America!! that to me is soo disrespectful!!! I wish we can be tough and secure the borders and stop allowing for 40,000 Illega’s a day to sneak over!!! I mean come on!! You honestly think as a race of people that you can flood a nation and not want to become an American and not see that one day that Nation say “WHAT DA HELL!!! THIS HAS GOT TO STOP”..Ya’ll know ya’ll full of it when it comes to this!! If we asked them right now to become citizens or leave you would see them either leave or complain and complain because the problem is not that they are the victims its that they dont want to be American yet they want to be over here to use Americans…and where are the people that are brave enough to tell the truth??? I will never be afraid to tell it like it is…For yrs I have been angry about whats going on and that we havent done anything about it!! If you were Born here in America if your a citizen a Mexican American,if you get your Green card and handle ya Buisness then I have nothing but the up most respect for you!! If you make excuses and hate America yet your here waving your mexican flag and you have the attitude like “i’m here and aint nobody doing nothing to me and i’m going to stay illegal” Then I hope the time will come for you to have to pay for your consequences!!!

    What if I ran around robbing banks!! for yrs and my excuse was..”Im just trying to have a better life” if I broke the law and the law finally caught up with me then I should expect to be dealt with right??..what if I said it was racist for you to finally catch me…isnt that ridiculous?? thats what this Arizona issue sounds like to me…Dispite this Cop talking mess there was another cop on talking yesterday saying..”do you think where going to be unfairly targeting Mexicans NO!! where going to stop people like we always have for driving too fast or driving with no tags or whatever and if they cant speak english or show that they came over here correctly then they gotta go”..and sorry I dont see nothing wrong with that!!!! The whole nation need to be on this..we shouldnt Boycott Arizona we should support them..and who cares that they were the last to accept Martin luther king day….this isnt about Black Issues…this is about Mexicans finally having to understand that they are illegal and need to be dealt with…they constantly making excuses and looking towards us all of a sudden to have their backs,,but the moment it was more of them they flipped the script and started to show their true colors that they got alot of hate and resentment for blks,,but oooh now they want us to be outraged at the fact that a State finally said..”we checking you” Mannnnnn that sound like a good Idea to me…Hey Illegal Immigrants…show me ya Papers!! The time is up for being Users and not paying taxes and being selfish and its actually time for you to show and prove..and Hopefully soon we can Make a Immigration reform Law that shows them that they cant just do whatever the hell they wanna do,,and the Mexican President talking his Mess..Please!! I think this is a Huge issue and we may have to really put our foot down before they will follow the rules!! giving them Amnesty or a Pardon will only lead to forcing them to pay taxes in the future which they will refuse to do or forcing them to learn to speak english as their 1st language at the work place and new No bilingual Laws which they will not honor..this is gonna be a hard one because your dealing with folks that dont like you and dont respect you but are here on you..using you and looking at you like WHAT?..

    And Has America Used Mexicans Of course!!! I would say that America and the Ilegal have Used each other..its the Equivalent Or I I may use the Example or the Scenario of a Desperate Woman walking up to a guy and saying “Hey be my man…i will give you money,sex i’ll do anything just be with me” and him saying “Umm ok i’ll use you” and then eventually she says…you gotta marry me..and honor me…and he looks at you and says..Noo i didnt pursue you..or approach you..you approached me..I never wanted you..you was just so desperate and I enjoyed you…and you got something out of it and I did too..and now i don’t want to anymore…is that right,..Nooo but dont leave out the fact that Mexicans have been using this nation for yrs…and when you put yaself in a desperate situation and allow for someone to use you,,odds are they probally are going to do just that…but there is going to become a time when that’s going to be over and thats for both sides…time is out for using them for labor…insist upon them to be legal before they can work!!!

    Real talk they need to do something. Several years ago while in college I interned with the Federal Trade Commission as a consumer counselor. I dealt with victims of consumer fraud and identity theft and in the majority of my cases the identity theives were in fact Mexican. That being said, Mexicans get somewhat scapegoated because many Asians come here from Canada. As well as there being WAY too many Africans, Indians, Arabs, and Euro white folks which you never hear about. In any case, I had security clearance to access several government databases including the SSA, police reports, and could skip trace and pull credit reports like the bill collectors do to see what all damage has been done. I have seen people’s lives devastated by something as simple as someone else getting a job with your SSN. That income they(illegals) earned gets reported to the IRS by the company they worked for but you end up getting audited for undisclosed income, and for anybody that don’t know, the IRS is the last people you want on your azz. I’ve seen homes and cars bought, businesses started, people falsely arrested, and many other things as a result of somebody simply using your information. The issue goes so much deeper than just people coming into the country. It’s also about the non chalant attitude that’s taken when illegal immigrants come here and breed just to use services that are for citizens only(natural or legalized). The police in most cities didn’t do ish even when the identity thief was on the other side of town. Let’s look at it from a slighty different perspective; if someone snuck into your home while you were out, ate your food and drink, used your bathroom, slept in your bed, pretended to be you to people you didn’t know, and helped themselves to all the other amenities of your home, and didn’t pay for anything just because their home was run down, in a worse part of town than yours, and they simply didn’t want to wait to obtain their own home in your neighborhood like many of their neighbors did would that justify their actions? Illegal is just that illegal and people here ILLEGALLY should first have a tracking chip implanted and then be sent back to where they come from. That way if they try and sneak back in then we can find that azz and lock them up for a minimum 2 years so they get the point. How many times does something ridiculous have to happen, whether it’s a skyscraper being destroyed by a plane or someone’s credit ruined before enough is enough? All of this because of what…cheap labor, which is the only reason that illegal immigration is even tolerated.

    I don’t understand…really. If you are in the U.S., you either have a passport/visa situation, green card…or you are a citizen. PERIOD. I’m all for people coming to the US to make a better life for themselves,it’s what my family did, from the west indies…but then when they got here…they became citizens!! Why do I have to pay taxes and they don’t? Why do I have to wait for medical care behind a long line of illegal immigrants? Americans need jobs right now…not illegal immigrants. African-Americans, Latin-Americans, Anglo-Americans, Asian-Americans, Native-Americans….those groups…not illegal immigrants. I’m as liberal as they come, not a right wing republican.
    I know it’s hard for people to understand, but if you’ve lived in a border state, you’ve seen whats happening. It’s crazy. If they were all legal…whatever…good for them. But the vast majority just isn’t, look at the Census reports. California, Florida,Texas,Arizona…all did poorly with the census…hmmm..I wonder why, with the amount of people in California, they should have a super high population count, why don’t they?? ( New York did poorly too by the way)
    Our immigration system is broken…fix it. Build a wall. Hire more border patrol agents, crack down on business that hire illegals,secure our social security info better, this is NOT the time to let people take jobs away from us.

    I really hate this law and we should’ve takin care of this thing with illegals way back in 2000 or so but Bush decided to turn the other cheek. Thing is this is basically racial profiling. And police already have enough power as it it.

    How is it racist to ask for someone to produce a drivers license or state identification while having interactions with the police? Americans are asked to produce ID all the time how is it racist to assume that if someone has no identification that comes from one of our fifty states they maybe in the country illegally? This is no more racist than the police calling in for a warrant check on somebody they’ve pulled over on a traffic stop. The law clearly states that once someone produces a drivers license from Arizona or any other state, any concerns about immigration status are satisfied.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/kjw_south/ kjw_south

    When the Federal government with Ronald Reagan as President gave amnesty to roughly 5 million illegal immigrants, the government said that new tough laws were going to be used to prevent anymore illegal immigration. They passed the laws but never enforced them and in a 20 year time span Latinos have gone from 4% of the U.S. population to 15% according to the 2007 Census. The Arizona law mirrors the Federal law that was passed by a Democraticaly controlled Congress after the first amnesty. How many illegal immigrants are enough and to what benefit does it do our country to continue to absorb millions of uneducated and poor when we have millions of poor that are not achieving but we haven’t yet adequately addressed?

    @Mz-Knightowl, don’t be so quick to judge. Most people commenting on this topic seem to make a lot of sense to me and I think that everyone is aware that this law does not pertain to just “Hispanic” people. I could’ve sworn that people immigrate from all around the world to the United States both legally and illegaly not just from Mexico. This needs to stop on a whole. With a war, recession and unemployment at an all time high, things are about to get really ugly in this country and it wouldn’t behoove “illegal immigrants” to try and pull some of the stunts they are pulling. And also, no one was on a mission to get “hispanic” people out of America. The mission was to try and get “illegal immigrants” who just so happen to be predominately “Hispanic”, along with an array of other nationalities, due to their geographical location.

    Ok, it is amaizing how African Americans forget. Racism was enforced by jim crow laws just like SB1070. Also,
    Hispanic = Illegal Immigrant from mexico or latin america,
    Indian and Chinese = Illigal immigrants (expired Visa)from asia
    Black/African American = Illigal immigrants (expired Visa)from africa
    Translation: I stopped you because you look foreign (African).Can i have your ID, are u a US citizen, i ran your ID and you have a warrants outstanding. This is a racist law, who would ask a white person for their doc**ents when America is over 67% white. Black businesses in hispanic areas and black landlords renting to hispanics will suffer too. No more Stupid comments, it hurts and sickens me to see black people support laws that once resembled those that contributed to their tourtured and murderous repressive past.
