Well,after reading a few more of these posts,I am still not convinced why I should boycott Arizona.I believe that all immigrants should be welcome here in America,after all,this is a land built on people from many countries.You can't deny that we are living in a dangerous world.America has rules and laws,I support that.When I was born I was documented and given a birth certificate and a social security number.I also had just enough native American blood in me to be issued a card stating that I am a bona fide member of a federally recognized tribe.All those documents have helped me in some way or another,but most importantly it has proven my citizenship,and that I can be 'tracked' so to speak,and frankly I'm fine with that.I'm a good productive person in this society that doesn't commit crimes for a living.I'm simply saying here that by supporting Arizona's new law that if I was given 'papers' to live in this country,why shouldn't others from different countries be expected to?.We now know that this bill was drawn up by a racist,that alone will probably get it struck down by the supreme court.But I don't see it as being a racist law.If the law is killed,I hope something similar is written up so that it won't be seen as a law that profiles people..but that could be a real challenge.
Someone reported my posts as being racist,I am sorry you felt that way.My opinion is here because it should be counted,like yours.If my opinion is different than yours,then lets agree to disagree.But don't call me something that is untrue..or try to get me banned for typing my thoughts on this serious subject.When you do that I feel like you're trying to censor me.
I'm here trying to figure it all out myself.If we work together we might get something done to protect our borders.
Peace y'all,not war.
