Brewer was not wrong. She was just prophetic..

I expect a full apology from the reporters of the AZ Republic to Jan Brewer after attacking her about beheadings in AZ!! Guess she is a psychic and knew it was going to happen. Get the illegal criminals out of this state. Take SB1070 to the Supreme Court and WIN!! Is this enough proof for Obama that we need help or will he continue to sue us. VOTE ON TUESDAY FOR THOSE WHO SUPPORT SB1070.

This can't be true. Earlier this year I remember crapy nappy telling us the border is more secure than it has ever been. What a load of garbage. This lady is as incompetent as her boss.
When is this so called president going to deal with this problem? Oh, thats right he probably won't except to sue the state of arizona for trying to work the problem on our own since the federal government is of no help.

Number one lesson learned from Prohibition: When alcohol was illegal, there was overwhelming violence, crime, gangs, etc. When Prohibition ended and alcohol became legal, all the violence and crime ended. Message to current leaders: Legalize, regulate and tax illegal drugs and all violence and crime will end, just like it did when alcohol Prohibition ended. This is going to happen eventually. Do it sooner rather than later and end the horrid violence NOW!

This is not the time/place to get onto the 'legalize drugs' soapbox.
It IS the place to demand that ANY of our candidates for State offices be checked carefully for their personal stand on BORDER and AZ SECURITY issues.
Unless they personally advocate strong enforcement of American/Arizona Security do NOT vote for them.
We now see continuing terrorist attempts from the Middle East, but there are also more local Terrorism threats coming at us. Imported from Mexico, locals recruited and cells building. Taking a page from the Mid-east terrorism booklets?
Choice: Dying from Al-Queda bomb or getting caught in the cross-fire of some Mexican Cartel War? Either way, you are DEAD.
Obama is losing the confidence of America, playing right into the hands of the enemy - "foreign and domestic". Not a big leap to total inept leadership.
Janet....you better grab your boss by the short hairs and get his attention.
We ARE in danger and the American/AZ public may not be as complacent as you dolts in DC think we are.

when would be a good time? after the illegals are deported? after the border is secure? after the employers that hire illegals are perp-walked in front of the country on national television?

wd: You have your knickers in a knot for no reason.
So many threads (subjects) are hi-jacked and turned into rants for/against some other agenda. Yours, mine, etc.
The SUBJECT here is the Drug Cartels and their possible incursion into America/AZ.
There are other threads devoted to the 'legalize xxx' or the need to bust the chops of employers. (and I post to those too).
Just was my suggestion that we STAY on topic and exercise some logical thought processes as we respond.

Look who's hiding behind the cover of the millions of illegal immigrants looking for a better job and charity handouts in America. Members of Latino organized crime. They are either making money via organized crime or laying low. That means there are going to be more and more incidents like this one in Chandler. More and more "home-invasion team busted" like reported in Phoenix today. The future holds more and more violence, with mistaken identity killings and innocents in the crossfire. Will it hold fear of death for turning in a neighborhood dealer? Masked local policeman to keep their families safe? Time to make a stand...

So these yahoos have taken off for Mexico, yet we have pictures of them? That means they've been causing problems around here before so we have mugshots of them.
We need a law that if you get deported after being convicted for a crime that you will get a 10 year suspended prison sentence that will be enforced if you get caught in the USA again. No appeals. No early release. Nada!

This is one of the many reasons I'm packing heat at all times.

No, forkedlift1, just because ILLEGAL ALIENS (or Foreign national invaders) do not get the same rights as US citizens just because they ignore our Federal and State laws. Are they subject to our laws? Yes. But that DOES NOT give the the same rights as a US citizen.
Mexico still regards them as their citizens, why else are they so mad about sb1070?
rrjenn posted at 8:29 am on Tue, Nov 2, 2010.
forkedlift1, you really think our law enforcement officers couldn't enforce all our laws? That's a pathetic argument even for you. And how creative of you to use criminals to argue for your anchor baby views. Very retarded arguments for one who thinks so highly of himself that he even compliments his own sock puppets. Nobody is fooled by your false arguments so why bother?

forkedlift1: Gee, maybe it was a "faked" beheading. You know, like the Deputy Sheriff whom YOU said faked his injury....

lol very funny Masterrogue. I see fork didn't have a comeback for that one.
