Just don't do so to Arizona. They would hear your English accent and
immediately have you arrested, then probably deported to Mexico (I don't
credit these idiots imagining that anyone in the country illegally
*might* come from some place other than Mexico...). lol

That's about right, considering they're talking about deporting actual US
citizens born of illegal immigrants. I have to wonder where they think
they'd deport them to.

I have heard some stories how, especially nowadays, people at customs in
the US can sometimes be really prickly with people who are trying to get
into the country, even tourists.
A married couple, friends of mine, were trying to visit the US (they had
done so many times before). He had dual US/Finnish citizenship because of
his parents, and they were going to visit his family. His wife had only
Finnish citizenship.
I didn't know that Finns were such a huge illegal immigration problem in
the US (</sarcasm>) because the person at customs happened to be a real
a**hole. There was some minor problem with her papers (I don't remember
if it was the visa or the passport or something), and they spent literally
*hours* in customs at the airport trying to solve the problem. The husband
would have had no problem entering (being a citizen and all), but his wife
couldn't.
After many hours the shift of this customs person ended and a new person
came in his stead. He checked the papers a few seconds and cleared them to
enter the country.

I'm not quite ready to chalk up the Arizona laws to pure racism.
The notion that any nation must permit any person to immigrate is simply
nuts, and does not appear to be the operating principle of any nation on
earth. Mexico's immigration laws, in particular, make even the new
Arizona law seem quite relaxed in comparison. In light of this, I'd say
that the Mexican government "doth protest too much" on the issue of the
new Arizona law.
Regards,
John

If a man is the sole source of support for his family, and he commits a
crime punishable by prison, the fact that he has a family to support may
be taken into account in his sentencing, but the court may lawfully
sentence to prison anyway. That his family is consequently deprived of
their support is regarded as the fault of that man, and not that of the
court or the law.
The same principle applies here to the immigration law. If you don't
want your children to suffer the indirect consequences of your
lawbreaking, then don't break the law.
Believe it or not, there is no basic right to remain in the country. If
you are here in violation of our laws, you must go. The fact that your
children are lawfully here does not alter this. You have no lawful
recourse but to leave.
You can take your kids with you or you can leave them behind. Sure, it
is not their fault that you broke the law, but if that didn't stop you
from breaking the law, why should it stop us from enforcing it?
Regards,
John

I don't think that this is what Darren was saying, but rather that the
Arizona law opens the potential for someone who *is* a legal citizen but
isn't carrying their papers on them to be deported. But the idea behind
deporting someone to their country of origin is not valid when their
country of origin *is* in fact the US.
