Immigration: Arizona Immigration Law 1070

In order to avoid a knee jerk reaction to the newly signed, and much publicized, Arizona immigration law 1070, I suggested reading the actual law, and have found a link to the PDF version. Here is also a rainbow of commentary from the NY Times.

Naturally, being married to a beautiful Latina, I have an interest in preserving the civil rights and heritage of people who have also been United States citizens for at least 3 generations.

I can also appreciate the concerns of the states when considering financing the education and welfare of their constituents. However, I don't find much merit in the "drug war" as an argument for immigration reform. Tightening immigration policies seem unlikely to curb American appetite for drugs, unmet demand will always find a supply.
