***Formally Arizona Senate Bill 1070***
I know one should never openly discuss politics. Since the majority of the time it is far too emotional and tempers flare. But I believe in an open forum where EVERYONE can express their views on this controversial law. It will be going into effect on July 29, 2010. That is in 7 days. However, today (actually right now as a matter of fact) Judge Bolton is hearing arguments to impose an injunction that will stop the bill from officially becoming a law until the lawsuit is decided.I pray that she makes a decision that she can live with and is not persuaded by sheer numbers of supporters or opposers of the bill. She, Bolton, is a judge. Which means she is in place to make sure that trials and hearings are conducted in a constitutionally fair manner. She must also try to safeguard the legal rights of EVERYONE in their courtroom. She is to ensure that the proper rules and procedures are followed.
I would love your input on the matter at hand. Be courteous and respectful of EVERYONE'S views. Even if they differ from yours.
But first, read the bill in it's summary.

I believe that this law will deter illegals from seeking sanctuary in the State of Arizona. Ever since they signed the bill into effect, there has been a sharp decrease (almost 30%) in illegals renting homes. Houses have bene abandoned. Church attendance has dropped over all religions. The only question is if the "illegals" have fled to other states or gone back to Mexico.
