WTF is going on in Arizona!?

Don't need to secure the borders need to STOP NAFTA. NAFTA is what created this whole mess.
The day before NAFTA was passed = less than 3 million illegal aliens.
Since NAFTA = 10+++++ million.
Don't put a bandaid on the problem, treat the source (i.e WHY people are leaving their homelands in the FIRST PLACE).
But idiots & rednecks don't understand this. "Duh we need to uhh stop da illeegals from comin in our country!" Well, dummy, you ever ask yourself why they are coming here in the first place??
Further people are so brainwashed and persuaded by the Idiot Box they don't have a clue what's going on.

There's no way that piece of legislation will be able to stay in place.
On a side note, it's funny how when people think of undocumented people they immediately say Mexican or Salvadoran etc. Most of the undocumented people I know are Korean. I'm Korean, so obviously I know more Koreans than I do Mexicans or any other race, but I don't ever see ICE raiding our liquor stores or grocery stores for the owners, they coming for the people that speak Spanish while the owner is just as likely to be without papers. I'm not saying it never happens, but if you watch what is covered in the press you would think that all undocumented peoples are from south of the U.S. border.

Crime rates in Arizona at lowest point in decades. According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS), the violent crime rate in Arizona was lower in 2006, 2007, and 2008 -- the most recent year from which data are available -- than any year since 1983. The property crime rate in Arizona was lower in 2006, 2007, and 2008 than any year since 1968. In addition, in Arizona, the violent crime rate dropped from 577.9 per 100,000 population in 1998 to 447 per 100,000 population in 2008; the property crime rate dropped from 5,997 to 4,291 during the same period. During the same decade, Arizona's undocumented immigrant population grew rapidly. The Arizona Republic reported: "Between January 2000 and January 2008, Arizona's undocumented population grew 70 percent, according to the DHS [Department of Homeland Security] report. Nationally, it grew 37 percent."
Crime rates have dropped during past decade in other border states. The BJS data further show that violent crime rates and property crime rates in California, New Mexico, and Texas dropped from 1998 through 2008 -- the most recent year from which data are available:
•In California, the violent crime rate dropped from 703.7 in 1998 to 503.8 in 2008; the property crime rate dropped from 3,639.1 to 2,940.3 during the same period.
•In New Mexico, the violent crime rate dropped from 961.4 in 1998 to 649.9 in 2008; the property crime rate dropped from 5,757.7 to 3,909.2 over the same period.
•In Texas, the violent crime rate dropped from 564.6 in 1998 to 507.9 in 2008; the property crime rate dropped from 4,547 to 3,985.6 over the same period.
