The 9th circuit upheld Holders unjust lawsuit against AZ SB1070 so it looks like it will be going to SCOTUS. One positive thing is that the 9th is the most overturned circuit court. Looks like It could be another 5-4 decision

However, lawmakers eliminated a contentious piece of the bill which would have required businesses to register their workers on a federal program called E-Verify. The program determines if they are eligible to work in the US.

Mexico needs to be looked at seriously. Since 2006 there have been over 30K murders due to the drug war. Maybe legalize some here. Also the police and government are corrupt and as a result its spilling over to border towns. Maybe Mexico should bring back capital punishment, Its not a good situation when Afghanistan is much safer

you wanna legalize cocaine and heroin in the US because there is drug wars in Mexico? Im gonna go ahead and say that weed is not the reason these cartels have most of the cash they have. So legalizing weed really wont do much to change things down there. If you really wanna bring down the drug cartels in mexico, start with dust bombing all the cocoa plants in Peru, Columbia and other countries in SA

They are using drug mules, Especially for weed. There is a huge demand here for that. I think at the very least that should be legalized but thats for another arguement.
Also all those guns going south of the border. Its not from gun shows or shops its our own ATF involved.
As far as the powder, The CIA probably still has a vested interest in SA

i agree weed should be legal, however you are sorely mistaken. And this is one thing I truly truly know about. Most of the Mules they use arent for weed. Most of the weed they were bringing in were through those tunnels in Cali and Arizona and most of them were doing that themselves.
Here is a bombshell for all the US "authorities" Somewhere between 65-70% of all weed in the US is grown in , GASP, THE US. And when you get into the higher end weed, its like 85-90% is local and what isnt is usually from Canada or Europe.
85-90% of the money that goes to South American cartels is cocaine. About 60% of mexican money is cocaine but out of the other 40%, about 90% of that is heroin and other opiates. Not weed. We started taking care of the weed shit ourselves
as for your ATF involvement, no. The ATF isnt giving them guns just cause they didnt come from some show. Most of the guns they get through the US are illegal guns the US got through Europe. Surplus guns from fallen countries, and just guns that were legally sold in other countries. Its very rare to find illegal guns made in america in countries other than the US. Most of the US made or born illegal guns end up in the hands of the mafia or gangs and shit in local cities. Mexico is like AK 47s and shit. They might come through us but they dont come from us.

So let's keep those non-Americans down where they belong - workin' for the man?
If they were here legally, then supply and demand would remain in force. If the peaches were worth picking, then a fair price would be paid for picking them, and they would be picked. If not worth it, then they would rot.
Right now a fair price is not being paid, no? Illegal aliens are not the driver, they're a convenient means to the end currently.

Real migrant workers aren't illegal aliens. They are given visas to work during the picking season, then sent home. I live in apple country. For as long as I've been here (42 years), Jamaicans, Haitians, and Mexicans have arrived in the fall legally, live in camps during the harvest, then are sent home when the harvest is over.

Workin for the man??? How about willing to do the work most americans want TOO MUCH money to do. A fair price and a price which americans would do that same work are 2 different things.
Again, its unskilled labor. People that dont speak english and with an education of a 5th grader can do the work. They shouldnt get more then minimum wage and I dont know too many Americans willing to bust their ass like that for minimum wage.

I can't figure out your point: are you defending this status quo, or just saying we should accept it as inevitable?
In fact they mostly make much less than minimum wage, work long long hours without OT, are exposed to pesticides and other lousy work conditions, are paid under the table so they and their employers are paying nothing into Soc Sec and Medicare, unemployment is unavailable to them when needed, and they live in abject poverty.
So they give that, and you get cheap food. Again, if the work is worth it to the market then it will get done at a fair price. The reason that they and other unskilled worker are paid so little is that they are here illegally, so the system exploits them. If they were here legally then nobody would be available for the system to exploit, wages would be higher becsause they would be driven by the real labor market, and then Americans just may work those jobs.

Yeah. People do not hire illegal immigrants to give them $15/hr and full bennies, including 401(k). They hire them to work them like dogs for $5/hr, and a threat to call "La Migra" on them if they complain.

Farmwork requires very low skills. Thats why a guest worker plan is the best way to go. Its a minimum wage job and when the harvest is over they leave until the next season. The government isnt getting ripped off for tax purposes, the corporations have accountability. If for instance someone gets injured on the job because there are shady working conditions, then that specific corporation can get fines levied.
To Knox's point if an illegal alien injures himself hes not going to risk outing himself and face possible deportation.

ATF has more 'splainin to do
http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-31727_162-20053961-10391695.html
"Damning, newly-obtained emails show that a key gun shop owner made explicit concerns in writing last year in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms’ “gunwalking” scandal.
Starting in late 2009, ATF allegedly directed an undetermined number of Phoenix-area gun shop owners to go ahead with sales of thousands of assault rifles and other weapons to suspicious buyers. Insiders claim ATF knew the buyers were connected to Mexico’s drug cartels, but let the guns “walk” onto the street anyway in a misguided attempt to obtain intelligence. ATF and the Justice Department have denied that.
Investigators from Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) obtained the emails this week."
Excerpts from Chuck Grassleys letter to DoJ
On June 17, 2010, the gun dealer wrote to the ATF to again express concerns after seeing a report
on Fox News about firearms and the border:
The segment, if the information was correct, is disturbing to me. When
you, [the Assistant U.S. Attorney], and I met on May 13th, I shared my
concerns with you guys that I wanted to make sure that none of the
firearms that were sold per our conversation with you and various ATF
agents could or would ever end up south of the border or in the hands of
the bad guys. … I want to help ATF with its investigation but not at the risk
of agents‟ safety because I have some very close friends that are U.S.
Border Patrol agents in southern AZ[.]5
Incredibly, the FFL sent this email six months before guns from the same ATF operation were found at the scene of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry‟s murder. So, not only were
the ATF agents who later blew the whistle predicting that this operation would end in tragedy, so were the gun dealers—even as ATF urged them to make the sales. Furthermore, according to the FFL, there were “one or two” occasions on which his employees actually witnessed and recorded with surveillance cameras an exchange of money between the straw purchaser and another individual on the premises.6
Despite this actual knowledge of a straw purchase, the dealer said ATF officials wanted him to proceed with the transaction.7 However, his employees refused to process the sale.8
In light of this new evidence, the Justice Department‟s claim that the ATF never knowingly sanctioned or allowed the sale of assault weapons to straw purchasers is simply not credible.

Im saying I have no problem with people that come here illegally and do hard work for cheap. Is it necessarily fair? I guess not, but hey, thats the price you pay to live here illegally. I just dont agree with the retards crying about how illegals steal jobs from hard working americans.

I wish we had the choice of being selfish in regards to the babysitting we have to do for the illegals and their anchor babies. I wish I could be selfish and not provide them with food housing, education and healthcare and every other entitlement just because they scaled a fence and managed to take advantage of the birthright citizenship loophole and for the most part not pay taxes on their wages. Yes I know some already do but they receive more in a refund than they pay.
The illegal aliens wore out their welcome, we as a generous nation provided them with blanket amnesty, entitlements etc and they kept taking advantage and abusing the taxpayers many times since 1986 and they still came here to feed off the nanny state. We were more than generous and their refusal to be a part of our society and balkanize themselves led to 80% of the country being against them being here and their enablers and employers and politicians catering to their needs.
I am glad any chance for amnesty is dead. Let the Luis Guiterrez Bob Menendez and George and Jeb Bush John McCain complain all they want, we will tell them again NO!!!!!

Im saying I have no problem with people that come here illegally and do hard work for cheap. Is it necessarily fair? I guess not, but hey, thats the price you pay to live here illegally. I just dont agree with the retards crying about how illegals steal jobs from hard working americans. Id rather be able to afford a landscaper because he uses cheap foreign labor then not be able to afford one because he uses regular Americans and has to pay them alot more. I know its selfish, but hey, fuck it, Im selfish.

They pay taxes but they are still a net drain to our society. I'll make it simple for you. If someone sneaks into the staples ctr and has Lakers floor seats and doesnt pay for them but they buy $50.00 worth of concessions, its still a loss.
Youre not helping yourself with this analogy. Because its ridiculous and wrong. Now if the guy that snuck in somehow prevented someone from buying that floor seat, then they would lose money, but it doesnt. Sneaking into a game doesnt cost a sports team anything, they are actually up $50 from that guy being there.

you get the point
The fact of the matter is, if an illegal pays $5000 thru a phony Social security number but gets back $8000 thru child credits EITC he is a drain on the tax system
In a nutshell anyone receiving less back then their liability is a taxpayer and most illegals are not

If the neocons paid more attention to the southern border instead of invading countries that arent a threat to us, maybe this problem could be averted. I think 100K troops guarding the border is a much better strategy than 100K troops acting as social workers 8000 miles away

By the way, a new study estimates that illegal immigrants paid more than $11B in taxes last year...certainly more than some other people we could mention did.
his past month, there was much outrage over the fact that General Electric, despite making $14.2 billion in profits, paid zero U.S. taxes in 2010. General Electric actually received tax credits of $3.2 billion from American taxpayers.
At the same time that General Electric was not paying taxes, many undocumented immigrants, who are typically accused of taking advantage of the system while not contributing to it by many on the right, paid $11.2 billion in taxes. A new study by the Institute for Taxation and Economic Policy shows that undocumented immigrants paid $8.4 billion in sales taxes, $1.6 billion in property taxes, and $1.2 billion in personal income taxes last year. The study also estimates that nearly half of all undocumented immigrants pay income taxes.

Because of their low income, illegal immigrants would have to pay very little in the way of income taxes anyway. They use things like welfare, healthcare, etc. at a much lower rate than their legal socio-economic counterparts for fear of deportation. Just accept they are not a huge burden to taxpayers, and any crazy scheme you have to get rid of them would ultimately pay the tax payer a lot more than the current system we have now.

I already backed off the notion of mass deportations because it would cost too much. Denying them social services, cracking down on the employers and landlords and starving them out would force them to self deport. They started leaving AZ when SB 1070 was passed. Make life unbearable for them by not affording them any opportunity and they will leave on their own

•Welfare use tends to be high for both new arrivals and established residents. In 2009, 60 percent of households with children headed by an immigrant who arrived in 2000 or later used at least one welfare program; for households headed by immigrants who arrived before 2000 it was 55 percent.
Doesnt sound conflicting to me
If someone comes here for the intent to collect off the taxpayer they are needy and dependant. , poor people having children regardless of immigration status is the most immoral thing a parent can do. Illegal aliens are immoral because they are having children knowing that they can be deported and separated from their anchor babies. No one forced them to come here.

The part you quoted was about immigrants in general, not just illegals. Also, I'm SO ANNOYED at you for making me have to go through the article and point these pieces out, but your statement:
Most illegal aliens do use public assistance, yet proving my statement that they are needy dependant people who can not carry their own weight.
Did you see this:
•An unwillingness to work is not the reason immigrant welfare use is high. The vast majority (95 percent) of immigrant households with children had at least one worker in 2009. But their low education levels mean that more than half of these working immigrant households with children still accessed the welfare system during 2009.
They ARE working, but becuase their income levels are so low they need assistance. And AGAIN this applies to ALL immigrants, not just illegals. They are not "needy, dependent people," that is such an unfair assessment.
In fact, this is what YOUR LINK said about illegals:
•Illegal immigrant households with children primarily use food assistance and Medicaid, making almost no use of cash or housing assistance. In contrast, legal immigrant households tend to have relatively high use rates for every type of program.
THIS AGREES WITH MY POINT THAT YOU ORIGINALLY THOUGHT WAS SO ABSURD:
They use things like welfare, healthcare, etc. at a much lower rate than their legal socio-economic counterparts for fear of deportation.
Why did you even post this link? It's not about illegal immigrants, it's about immigrants in general, and furthmore poverty in general. It is not proving the point you want to prove.
You have NO ability to think critically about things.
Take this part of your link for example:
•We estimate that 52 percent of households with children headed by legal immigrants used at least one welfare program in 2009, compared to 71 percent for illegal immigrant households with children. Illegal immigrants generally receive benefits on behalf of their U.S.-born children.
Why do you think that is? Do you think legal immigrants are 19% more capable than illegal immigrants? Did you read the rest of the article? Did you know that the majority of that 71% comes from food assistance? Do you think we shouldn't give food to starving people? Is that what you mean by "starving them out"? Do you think that we should literally allow these people to starve to death? Do you think that we should let american citizens (their children) starve to death? Do you think that deporting their parents, and having the children go into foster care would ultimately cost this country less money? Do you see how you have absolutely no critical thought on this issue? Do you see that bumper stickers don't solve complex problems?

How so? Even though I am against a giant welfare state, at least the legal ones went thru proper channels The illegals are still participating in these programs and are still a burden to taxpayers. In regards to killing some entitlements thats for another thread
Why did you even post this link? It's not about illegal immigrants, it's about immigrants in general, and furthmore poverty in general. It is not proving the point you want to prove.
Illegal aliens are still using these programs and being rewarded for breaking the law. No one forced them to come here

Again food assistance is being rewarded for their behavior. Break down the doors and its carte blanche to feed off the taxpayers. 80% of us have said no more and enough is enough, but what does it matter to you?
No matter how you look at it illegals are still a net drain to our society. The FAIR report said that they cost taxpayers 113 billion annually while they contribute much less
It does not have to be complex, you always have to make things more complex than they are. Quit rewarding the illegals and they will leave.
Heres an idea, since I am in favor of cutting off all taxpayer funded services to them, maybe they can go and beg to the church for food. Its the church who wants open borders to fill the dwindling attendances on Sunday mornings
The illegal aliens took that chance of coming here and knew that they are here illegally. They should know that they risk a chance of getting deported Its personal responsibility. They need to be responsible parents and not let everyone else clean up the mess.
If they are deported they can take their anchor babies with them. No one said that families should be separated. If the anchor baby loophole was closed, maybe they would think twice about having children and risk being punished
You seem to think that illegal aliens are honorable people but they are here to take advantage of our politicians unwillingness to enforce laws and the fact that greedy corporations want cheap labor
Maybe we might have to look at more restrictions for legal immigrants. We are not a developing nation anymore and there are more than enough people 310MM is our population. We already allow 1mm people in annually. Coming here is not a right.
Granting another amnesty is suicidal as it would encourage more illegals to flood the country, plus with chain migration you can see the population swell up to 500 million before 2050. Do you know what chain migration is? It basically allows someone given amnesty to bring over their extended family. Now imagine 20 million people given amnesty, our population would be off the chart.
The problem needs to be solved, and it doesnt have to be more complex than youre making it out to be. Punish the illegals, They need to decide if deported if they want to bring their anchor babies back with them. If they are moral then they would. Use Arizona as a model, when SB1070 passed the illegals left in droves
I dont know your party affiliation so I wont judge you, however a growing majority of Democrats and some liberals have had it with the amount of illegal aliens and the amount of money pissed away for them. They are sick and tired of the pandering, the free passes and the lack of respect that the illegals have for our laws.
Look at the replies fromSnacks, He probably disagrees with everything I believe in when it comes to politics, I think hes left of center but from his reply he's fed up with this problem as well.
No more rewarding illegals, punish them and the employers, no more entitlements and close the anchor baby loophole. Its not that complicated

Saying illegal aliens is not racist. While the majority of illegals are from Latin America there isnt a race of illegals. Many come from China and Europe. According to the dictionary
al·ien /ˈeɪlyən, ˈeɪliən/ Show Spelled
[eyl-yuhn, ey-lee-uhn] Show IPA
–noun
1. a resident born in or belonging to another country who has not acquired citizenship by naturalization ( distinguished from citizen).
So if they are not a citizen and they are here illegally, Hence illegal alien

Debunking the pro amnesty/open border myths
1) They are an economic necessity - Not true. The idea that a bunch of desperately poor, uneducated, unskilled, illegal foreigners are an economic necessity is ludicrous. In fact, when you compare cost vs. benefit, it is obvious that they are not only NOT a necessity, they are not even an asset. Rather, they are a liability and a huge one at that.
2) They do work Americans won’t do - Not true. They do work Americans won’t do for $7 an hour (especially if Americans can collect welfare and unemployment forever). Of course, if you got rid of the illegals, the jobs wouldn’t pay $7 an hour. The people who wanted the work done would have to pay a wage that was attractive enough to get Americans to do the work. And it might even be enough so Americans could support themselves and get off welfare and unemployment !!
3) They work & contribute to our society - So do I. And if I break the law and commit crimes, I can expect to pay a penalty of some kind. Anything from a small fine to the death penalty. I do not receive a reward. This argument makes no sense.
4) They are just trying to make better lives - Aren’t we all? The difference is that most of us understand that we don’t have a right to acquire by illegal means those things that we find difficult to acquire by legal means. And we certainly don’t have the right to do it in a foreign country. Mexico does not allow foreigners to enter their country illegally and break it’s laws. If you believe differently, go give it a try. Call me collect from the dungeon. Let me know how it went.....
5) It is impossible to round up and deport the illegals - We don’t have to. All we have to do is remove the incentives that brought them here in the first place. No jobs. No housing. No taxpayer financed services or benefits. Once we remove the incentives that brought them here, they will leave on their own.
6) Immigration control is racist - This is just another play of the race card by people who have no other cards to play. Immigration control is the world-wide status quo. There is nothing racist about it. Furthermore, the USA welcomes LEGAL immigrants of all races and ethnicities from all over the world who have gone through the legal immigration process. This is not just a bad argument, it is an attempt to create racial hatred and division.
7) We are a nation of immigrants - Not true. I am not an immigrant. Nor were my parents We are, however, a nation that has, historically, allowed and even encouraged legal immigration. And we continue to do so. The issue at hand is illegal immigration, which has nothing to do with legal immigration. This argument is totally irrelevant to the issue at hand.
8) They are people. We must treat them humanely - Yes & yes. But lets not pretend like they are victims who were dragged here kicking and screaming against their will. Nothing could be further from the truth. They came of their own free will and for their own benefit and they broke the law to do it. People should not be rewarded for breaking laws and committing crimes. Sending them home is the right thing to do. There is nothing “draconian” about it.
9) It is wrong to break up families- Yes. Unfortunately, families are often broken up by criminal activity. If you don’t believe it, just drop by any prison or jail on visiting day. We can’t keep families together if some family members choose to participate in criminal activity.

Immigration doesn't need fixing.
Dealing with Illegal aliens does. Fix the fence, fix the incentives and fix any state, or city that is harboring illegal aliens by denying them federal or state money.
Fix the businesses that hire illegals by arresting the owners, and confiscate business assets.

Most criminals from foreign countries are violent people like rapists, drug dealers etc. Income level why not. If you can not sustain yourself and family without feeding off the taxpayer why should you be allowed to come here.

Stopping illegal immigration costs money because preventing illegal immigration is in the constitution again article 4 section 4

Here are some examples
Mexico welcomes only foreigners who will be useful to Mexican society:
Foreigners are admitted into Mexico "according to their possibilities of contributing to national progress." (Article 32)
Immigration officials must "ensure" that "immigrants will be useful elements for the country and that they have the necessary funds for their sustenance" and for their dependents. (Article 34)
Foreigners may be barred from the country if their presence upsets "the equilibrium of the national demographics," when foreigners are deemed detrimental to "economic or national interests," when they do not behave like good citizens in their own country, when they have broken Mexican laws, and when "they are not found to be physically or mentally healthy."

I do think we need to ease legal immigration. Not cut it off completely. I will mention this again. We already allow more than 1MM people in annually legally. With our population at 310MM how much more do you want to allow in?

This is your proof? An article that doesn't provide a solid number,but a theory, then makes a statement that proves your point without any actual proof? Why didn't you just post one of your own previous posts?
Even if what this article says is true (5% of reckless driving incidents are caused by illegal immigrants), my earlier point is still valid.

That Report was based on estimates. The illegal alien population isn't set in stone. The govt says there are about 12mm but they always underestimate. I believe it's 20mm. The point is that in regards to driving an illegal is less likely to have insurance.

Because having illegal aliens in this country to the tune of millions of people is not beneficial to the country. If these people would have stayed in their country those crimes would have not been committed.

Have to agree with fcd on this one. Those guesses don't mean anything. It would be like saying the Drake Equation proves extra-terrestrial intelligence.
Your mantra is always "enforce the laws that are on the books". If the problem that you're presenting is that people are needlessly dying because of unlicensed drivers, then I would agree with you. However, focusing on one-twentieth of that problem seems pretty stupid.
Its not just people dying from unlicensed drivers, thats just part of it. Theres also the other factors of having millions of illegals here.

It's a problem...one not limited by citizenship status. Explain why focusing on the 5-10% of the offenders makes any sense.
How is it that I don't care about the law? I know robbing a bank is against the law so I will not do that
But the reason that you don't rob the bank is not because robbery is listed in some big brown law book. The mere fact that your representatives passed a piece of legislation has no bearing on whether or not you support -- or even follow -- any particular law.
Your actions are decided upon a risk-benefit calculation of getting caught, as well as your personal ethical inclinations.
If you actually cared about The Law as some sort of sacred dicta (like you pretend it is when it comes to immigration), you would never knowingly speed or jaywalk because doing so would be against The Law.
I'm willing to bet you can't make that claim, so that is what I mean about you not caring about the law.

I know the difference btwn what someone in Harvard writes and someone with FAIR writes. Im saying that the FAIR articles shouldnt be dismissed because the writer might not have an ivy league degree. He goes out and does his research too.
In regards to driving its the illegal who is more likely not to have the insurance. I agree that unlicensed drivers are a problem but the bulk of them are illegals
Jaywalking isn't as serious as someone coming here illegally which has a snowball effect

Im not afraid to back up my beliefs at all. I'' argue that illegal aliens put a strain on our already out of control entitlement system. They are being rewarded with a loophole for birthright citizenship which opens the door to medicaid, welfare, section 8 housing, etc etc.

This is a pretty good example of why you care more about supporting your ideology than what's best for society.
If you really cared about more people having insurance, you'd allow illegal aliens to obtain drivers licenses and car insurance. This is a much easier, feasible tactic than counting on strict/unrealistic enforcement of illegal immigration. However, you'd never support that because you don't care about what's best for society, you only care about your agenda.
So, the result is that more people are driving without insurance, and illegal immigrants don't have the "luxury" of having a drivers license or insurance.

No you dont. Youre awarding people with privliges. Driving isn't a right. What you do is you allow people to sue the illegals landlord, if hes driving a landscaping truck for example, sue the employer
They dont make enough in order to get insurance granting them licenses will only put more of them on our roads, leaving Americans holding the bag when they are involved in accidents. Sure lets allow more of them on already congested roads and streets
Giving them licenses will allow them to get other services, and even allow voter fraud
Giving more incentives to illegals only encourages more of the same. Cut the incentives and they will leave.

It seems like a hard stats to come up with (the babies) what ever the source. I don't see any on it so far. (see PS below)
However I do see something off from the stats overall you have posted
20M was your #
"There were 11.2 million unauthorized immigrants living in the United States in March 2010, virtually unchanged from a year earlier, according to new estimates from the Pew Hispanic Center. The number of unauthorized immigrants in the workforce, 8 million, also did not differ from 2009. Both the population and workforce estimates are below their 2007 peaks, apparently driven by a decline in the number of Mexicans, the largest group of unauthorized immigrants. The report also includes estimates of state populations of unauthorized immigrants and of annual births to unauthorized immigrants."
http://pewhispanic.org/reports/report.php?ReportID=133
PS looks like babies are part of the overall number of 11.2 million and if counted apart would/should bing the over number down.

specifically, this: http://www.truthaboutfraud.org/documents/policy_brief_voter_fraud.html
It's voter disenfranchisement that targets the poor/working class who are less likely to have state IDs due to cost/travel issues of actually getting to the DMV, as well as college crowds who, despite being eligible to vote in a particular area, are denied the opportunity due to lack of local state ID and last but not least metro areas that has vastly more voters than actual drivers licenses.
Last but not least, it is a race thing. Illegal aliens are anyone that's a bit swarthy. White people won't be asked to verify ID (I sure as shit wasn't when I registered to vote in the county ot the polling place near me in 2008) or they'd flip the fuck out like they are with the TSA. They're fine having that stuff done to anyone that looks vaguely Arabic but woah, hold the horses, not us WASPs! Same shit applies to voter disenfranchisement rules, but with a bit more tact.
If anyone gave a shit about the sanctity of voting there'd be more investigations/oversight with voting machines instead of no-bid contracts with Diebold.

Im asked every time I vote to show my ID. Every single person in this country should have some form of ID. Unless you hiding something everyone can get proof of who they are. I think you can even get a county ID for free so thats just an excuse to separate and use race baiting for another issue. Everyone can get a cellphone then everyone can get an ID. Its not hard and if you cant get somewhere to get an ID chances are you werent going out to vote anyway. And if you were going to send in an absentee ballot then you need to prove who you are first just to get that absentee ballot, if not then we could have millions of fraud absentee ballots.
I really dont get this argument about IDs., everyone in America over 18 needs to prove who they are and under 18 should too. Schools give IDs for free, lets pass a law that pays for those who cant afford them if they arent already free. This way there is no excuse.

Im against cops just going up to people and asking for ID without probable cause. I dont want a police state but if someone is driving 100MPH and swerving on the pkwy and gets pulled over, then asking for drivers lic insurance registration is proper procedure
Lets say Im doing 75 in a 65 and I dont have my license. They can run a scan thru the system and see that I have a valid license.
In regards to non citizens, thats a different story. according to federal law they must carry at all times. So that means any alien who is stopped for probable cause must have them
I will reiterate cops shouldnt stop some short brown person on the street just to fuck with them and harass them

With rights comes responsibilities something like abortion is a serious matter especially to women. I think someone being against abortion or gay marriage because his pastor says it is, shows some irresponsibility and ignorance on part of the voter.
People should make some case why they are for or against an issue or policy. One scenario might be that someone had an abortion at age 16 and had left her emotionally distraught for years and she had regrets about it and now shes pro life.
People change their opinions on issues as they get older or if something happens to them like having an abortion etc. On some issues they might have their views set in stone but change their views also on other topics
On illegal immigration do you want someone voting against amnesty because they hate mexicans or someone who looks at the economic, fiscal social services entitlements implication.

Shes a dope but shes got a huge following and is very charasmatic, in a bad way, many of her supporters are ignorant just like she is. If she can somehow mobilize more people going for her because shes a mama grizzly you betcha eye wink etc. Imagine how much damage she can do as President.
If there are enough assholes in this country to elect this dumbell President then its time to blow up the country anyway.

And while I want only those we are legally eligible to vote, yes, I want MORE people to exercise their right to vote. I think it's pitiful that is some elections the percentage in below 40%. Even in the past 2010 election only 41.5% of eligible voters actually voted.
And unless a state provides free ID to all citizens it is discrimination to require an ID to vote.
Who is being discriminated against? Everyone has id in this country for some reason or another. To drive, to go on a plane, most jobs are even requiring them and giving them for work but your saying that we shouldnt require proof of residents and proof of who you are for 1 of the most important things in this country which is elected our nations leaders? Why make it easier for fraud on both sides. This doesnt just hurt the left it helps the right because they can easily double and triple vote if we allow no proof of anything to vote.

While this study is a little old, it does show that there are millions of people in the country without valid government issued ID.

As for double and triple voting, I'm not sure how other states do it but in NY when I vote I go to the table for my district, give the person my name, they check to make sure I'm registered, and then mark in the book that I voted so I can't go back and vote again.

Thats what I do too but they ask for our license to make sure we are the ones voting not a family member voting for us which would easily happen and then you could have 1 person voting for 2 or 3 family members even when the other 2 werent going to vote or might have voted differently. As for needing ID to register to vote, if you dont have ID require ID to register we can register in other counties under different names, and vote there so even if and when they write your name that you voted you can go somewhere else claim to be someone else and vote. Everyone in this country that is here legally has and needs to have a social security #. If you dont have one you arent paying taxes, basically you arent even accounted for. We need to make it so that we have proof of who people are in order vote. SS cards are free arent they? I got mine at birth why can others? Why are we making a big deal out of people having ID/SS cards etc. Without them in todays America you cant do anything anyway. I personally think its a matter of time before our social security # will have some sort of other ID or code with it for doing things like online voting to make it even easier to vote. But that will only be when we really are secure enough without the chance of a hacker altering the election. But having people be able to vote from home or work will actually allow more voters to vote, make it easier for people to get involved and limit the amount of fraud (once they figure away to do this)!
Social Security cards aren't a good thing to carry around, since the SS# is a vital part of your identity.
The solution is to look at the facts and realize voter fraud isn't a big issue. It's just a boogeyman to make people think Democrats are lining up a bunch of swarthies to vote and re-vote like the Irish did in Gangs of New York while it's real purpose is voter disenfranchisement.
Now as far as the calls of "JUST GO GET AN ID THEY'RE FREE"
Even if they are free, they're not all that easy to get if you're a working poor.

I know whats its like to be poor. I know what its like to have a father who is dealing with health issues and being raised by a single mother working 2, 3 and even 4 jobs at a time. She still got her ID, she still voted when she could.
The big boogyman in the room is saying that its hard to get an id even if they are free. Its not hard. Most govt offices have some sort of "late hours" 1 day a week. Go on your lunch break, go before work, go after work. Its a 1 time thing. If you are working that hard and that often chances are you are driving which means you have a license and thats your ID right there.
This excuse is a way to make it seem like its so anti minority or poor but the fact is the majority of poor people, minorities and people who dont drive have drivers licensees. Even people who dont drive go to DMV and get a license for id purposes only. And the other excuse is that these same people work too many hours to be able to get these ids, well that true but if your working somewhere chances are they asked for some form of id. If you are so poor that you dont work, then you have all the time in the world to go get 1 of these free ids.
At the end of the day everyone should have some form of id on them at all times because you never know when you might need it. If we need to offer more free ids thats fine with me, it cost pennies to make 1 now a days with technology and access.

Isn't it illegal to walk around without an id? Don't you need multiple forms of id to get any job? I'm not involved in either side of this debate but I don't see how people are going around without id.

You don't need to have an ID on you at all times.

Depends wildly on the job, but, it isn't a requirement. Nor is it a requirement to always have an ID on you -- a cop can demand identification, but you're under no obligation to provide a form of ID*
*You can very likely be arrested illegally for not coughing up identification, so, just ask the cop if you're free to leave and if they say no then give up your form of ID or refuse and take your right to remain silent so you can hire a lawyer. It's still illegal as fuck but people are falling all over themselves to erode the 4th amendment more so that's not going to last. Shit like the Arizona law is going to move us more and more toward "your papers, please"

i've never heard of a job not needing id, unless they're paying you illegally "under the table."
