Ahh, yes that second not shouldn't be there. But you get the point. Not
Clark of course, but everyone else should.

They sure are. What are they going to do with the people they arrest
under the new law? Drive them to the ICE Field Office in Phoenix and
dump them there? Arizona is a huge state. Or will they call the ICE
office and demand that they come and get them, then hold them for a
week or more until someone from ICE can take an entire day out of his
schedule to go pick them up? The AZ law doesn't give local
jurisdictions authority to deport illegal aliens - only to arrest
them.

The "ideas and solutions" you've offered are disgusting and
reprehensible. I would no sooner try to have an intelligent debate
with you than with Idi Amin.

Trying to decouple ourselves from our own despicable remarks, are we?
You didn't really mean that people should be killed for crossing the
border, you were just trying to start a discussion, right?

Good luck with that, pal. You didn't start this discussion. Someone
else did.
