Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa said Thursday that he supports a boycott of Arizona by the city of Los Angeles, and he called that state's newly passed immigration law "unpatriotic and unconstitutional."
"No person should be treated differently in the eyes of the law," he said at a news conference.
The mayor said boycotts have worked in the past and pointed to the city's divestiture from South Africa in the 1980s to protest apartheid

I completely agree down with this anti hispanic pro racial profiling law just because someone skin is brown they're going to be treated differently forget that, the hispanic community isn't ready to be treated as second class citizens thanks but no thanks! Arizona get ready for the backlash of your anti constitutional laws.

You obviously failed to look at the existing laws of the land which the Federal government failed to do also.
The only one that needs to get ready for a backlash are you and people like you who support ILLEGAL activities.
From Minnesota to Georgia, Politicians Lend Support to Arizona Immigration Law
If it's good enough for the desert, it's good enough for 10,000 lakes. That's what a group in Minnesota is saying as it calls for an Arizona-style crackdown on immigration in the North Star State.
And more than a thousand miles away, in Georgia, a Republican candidate for governor says he's all for it.
Ruthie Hendrycks, president and founder of Minnesotans Seeking Immigration Reform, says Arizona's new immigration law should be mirrored in Minnesota, where roughly 125,000 illegal immigrants lived as of 2007, according to some estimates.
"This issue of illegal immigration and addressing it is long overdue," Hendrycks told FoxNews.com. "The situation is out of control, and until the federal government steps up to the plate to enforce our laws, the states have no other choice than to enforce federal law through state law."

The law is a just law, you dont like it challenge it, we protect the rights of illegals over Amerian rights? All there going to do is deport these bastards back to whereever they came from.... Contrary to what the liberals say there not getting on a train to a gas chamber or slave labor.

You can try to turn this into a race-bait thread which the actual LAWS aren't. From one Legal BROWN Skinned citizen to another BROWN skinned person with what ever status, Get with the program or Get out of the way.

Okay just answer me this how do you think they're going to enforce this law in a fair way without racially profiling people that might be "illegal aliens"? How do you think they're going to filter out the illegal aliens huh, by asking everyone for their documments? I think not, only "suspected illegals" ( brown skinned ) are going to get questioned on a daily basis. I bet if all illegal aliens looked caucasian this law wouldn't exist and things would be done a little different.

Make EVERYONE do it.
Like people said, its not only Mexicans that are here illegally.
Have a national "American or GTFO" day.
Im willing to prove my citizenship, all they have to do is ask.

Finally someone that makes some sense, I completely agree make everyone do it or don't do it at all. Or else you leave the door open for all kinds of profiling and dicrimination. And I'm more then willing to show anyone my prove of citizenship as well, but I will not be singled out because of this half a@@ law.

Another Newsflash: The LAW doesn't single out anyone based on their skin tone. So in other words every one is going to be getting asked about their legal status if they get pulled over for breaking any laws.

Alright, I didn't think you were retarded, I am sorry for before...
Now... you say it doesn't single out anyone based on their skin tone
OK
Please explain how this will be enforced?
How are police going to find these illegals?
First; humans have five senses
is this right?
So are you saying police are going to identify illegals with hearing, smell, touch and taste?
You tell me EXACTLY how will police identify these illegals?
Are there psychic policemen?
Inform all of us, because you keep saying the same thing...
