I wouldn't say Hispanic descent, most Mexican that come across the border are Indian, Hispanic-Indian descent and even though they are Spanish speaking they are poor and are different people from the Mexican upper class. And does the Hispanic upper class in Mexico really care where they go? I really don't think they do.

Does Arizona have a right to make laws to protect itself? I think it does, I think if law enforcement has a tool to curb kidknapping that takes place in Phoenix then I don't have anything against it. Is this a law be use to protect people from serious crime, it depend how it's writen and if it is acceptable depends how it's presented in the media. Do I want to see a law used against innocent people? of course not.
