Why I disagree with Governor of Arizona Jan Brewer’s signing Arizona’s immigration bill

Why I disagree with Governor of Arizona Jan Brewer’s signing Arizona’s immigration bill because will cause more police race profiling stops, lawsuits against counrt, city, and state police officers making false arrests, and wasting more police resources to address our crime of violence. 

 

Governor Brewer just signed her own downfold.  Happy retirement governor Jan Brewer.

I have a number of reasons to vote against this White House administration, and the U.S. Congress, but Arizona Governor Jan Brewer’s signing a bill that will give more authority to law enforcement officers to “stop and detain” anybody who looks suspicious.  They will need only based their racist and bigot instincts to stop a United States Citizen born in the United States of any ethnic group.

As 30 years federal (25.7) and four (4) years law enforcement officers for 30 long years I endured the pain and humiliation of being pull over by White police officer for driving while brown” – One day when I was on the job for no apparent reason a California Highway Patrol Officer pulled me over.  Since I was not breaking any state traffic laws, I asked him why he stopped.  He started getting ready to get out of the car, I identified myself as a U.S. Customs Service supervisory criminal investigator.  I ordered him back to his car under my federal law enforcement authority.  He obeyed and apologized.  One of his answer was that I was driving to close to the border and the location was known to be heavely involved in smuggling and trafficked in drugs.  No apologies are necessary I replied.  You believed that you were doing your job. 

I got tired of carrying my federal badge, credentials and U.S. Passport for 30 years!

I explained to this White young trooper to be carefully enforcing Immigration and Customs laws because he and his fellow troopers and bosses may be subjected to an arrest.  Now, If I had been conducting surveillance, and I was pulled over, and the local, county or state law enforcement officer ignored my warning, they would have been arrested for obstruction of a federal investigation.

For any and all Republicans running for election the first time or re-election, including state governors, state senators or state representatives, including county and city political figures running as a republican, you just turned your only chance to gain control again of the former Republican led White House and U.S. Congress.

I am voting against any current and former republican thanks to my governor of Arizona, whose state regulatory agencies is understaffed and have no teeth to enforce our Arizona laws by health practitioners who are committing fraud left and right.

 It is my hope that soon U.S. President Barack Obama will sign an immigration Bill that will change the lives of thousands or millions of undocumented individuals who are not paying taxes and who live in the shadows for fear of being arrested NOW by any law enforcement officer in Arizona.

To all Latinos, or Hispanics from any country, we are the majority ethnic group in the United States, remember how your ancestors got to be in the United States.  In order to vote, you must be a United States citizen by birth or naturalization.

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer, you made the worst mistake of your entire life….read my lips.   I predict the next governor of Arizona will be a democrat.  The two Republican U.S. Senators are (one of which is John McCain) are extremely happy.  This honeymoon soon will be over.

apparently Obama has not produced papers either...

Whites are taking their anger against Obama out on latinos, since they cannot impeach Obama, or have him prove his citizenship, but they can make illegal mexicans prove 'their' citizenship...
