You ever notice that when liberals want something, they have to circumvent the people, go around them, if you will, to get what they want? Why is that? Probably because most Americans don’t want perversion, crime, a welfare state, social engineering, forced association, etc., in their communities and lives. Liberals have been running to judges to overturn or create law since Roe v. Wade.
For those who don’t understand America’s system (including some of you Americans), legislators, not judges, are supposed to make law. What’s the rationale? For starters, the people have a say in how laws are written because they elect the people doing the writing. Judges are to interpret the law once it’s written, not write it themselves. Got it?
Although the people of Arizona decided they do not want their tax money going to the upkeep of border jumpers, “civil rights” groups, such as the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, want to spit on the will of the voters in Arizona.
Fifty six percent of them, including 47 percent of Hispanics, voted “YES” on Proposition 200, and these miscreants say it means nothing. Throw the Constitution out!
A civil rights group asked a federal appeals court Tuesday to block a new state law that denies some public benefits to illegal immigrants. Approved by voters in November, the law requires proof that a person is not an illegal immigrant when applying for some government services and proof of citizenship when registering to vote. It also says government workers who do not report illegal immigrants seeking the benefits can face jail time.In an emergency motion, the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund asked the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco to block portions of the law while it appeals a judge’s earlier decision allowing the law to go into effect.
Supporters see the law as a way to begin cracking down on illegal immigration in Arizona, the busiest illegal entry point on the U.S.-Mexico border.
The civil rights group contends the measure will harm families who depend on public benefits for basic necessities, and could potentially cut them from all state services. (Source)
Arizona is going the way of California, with its bankrupt system and all the white people moving out. Yes, you heard what I said. White Californians are packing up and heading north, even the liberal ones.
Rather than going into why this is so and what the implications are, I challenge you to answer those questions.

Update (10:07 p.m.): This really gets under my skin. I may blog about it tomorrow.
