In Support of The Arizona Immigration Law

I am reluctant to opine on the Arizona immigration issue that is raging on the news and in the blogosphere because I too am an immigrant, not-with-standing the fact that I came here legally. It is misguided to call Arizonians who enacted this law rascist when we refused to see that it was borne out of the recent murder of one of their residents-Yet, in all the debates, no one has stopped to pay any sympathy for the murdered man-is it because he was white, and therefore, he shouldn't garner any sympathy? What of the young child he left behind? The truth is that Arizona is in debt by the tunes of billions, mostly borne out of the cost of illegal immigrants; lest we forget the rampant crime and kidnapping carried out mostly by illlegal immigrants-and note that the operative word is "illegal." California is now an economic basket case because of its opened border posture. Has anyone looked at how restrictive Mexico is in preventing other immigrants from poorer, neighboring countries from entering its border? For far too long our Mexican brothers and sisters have jumped the line to gain access to America at the expense of other immigrants who were here longer than they have. We are always told about how "hard-working" and a sense of a work ethic Mexicans have--so too are immigrants from the Caribbean and elsewhere. In our ignorance, some of us are even comparing the Arizona law to that of Nazi Germany; in my reading of history, the German Nazis took the Jews to Concentration camps where six millions of them died-are we really equating this Arizona law to that of the genocidal edict of Hitler? The cornucopia that allowed us to ravenously feast is no longer available in America; our treasury is empty and we simple cannot afford it. I see all these wealthy athletes and movie stars saying how racist the law is...perhaps Arizona can send them the bill it cost borne out of the illegal alien problem..... We are facing the advent of Islamic jihad where bin Laden and his cahoots are always probing for a weakness to gain access...and once again, our federal and state treasuries are empty...and, notwithstanding what is written by Emma Lazarus on our Statue of Liberty, which states in part, "...The hurdled masses yearning to be free...," the reality is said masses cost too much....
