I was pissed when I saw this. America doesn't hate Mexican's, we hate Arizonians.

(who incidentally may be Mexican's)

Edit: To be honest, this law is going to rat-**** the Republican party in 2010 elections. 4 states currently have a majority-minority population; California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. The Lation vote has been sleepy, disinterested, flying below the radar. But this Law basically says "hey we're going to harass the holy **** out of you at best."

The only state capable of surviving is Texas, who has a savvy governor and a policy-not-party system working down there. The other three states, which stood to be big Republican wins are going to get crushed, and I think for at least the next 10 years, Republicans will have to outright court the Latino vote, even if this means excising some of the hard-liners.
