Legal residents of Arizona are granted the option to sue if they feel a local agency’s policies interfere with the enforcement of federal immigration law. It makes it a criminal offense if an individual picking up a day laborer interferes with the normal flow of traffic. The law does not allow an undocumented immigrant to search for work in any public place. These are merely a select handful of issues within SB 1070. Once this law was announced, there was an enormous public outcry of opposition.
Ban the Arizona Immigration Law The law I propose is to have the Arizona Immigration Law banned and repelled. Illegal immigrants come to the United States for the good life and start fresh, but thinking about it more and more illegal immigrants are going to fill the United States without even knowing the laws or language, which is why we need to ban the Arizona Law. This law is needed because it subjects plenty of ethnic groups and races to public discrimination and racism, which violates the rights of citizens (Americanized citizens). Like how the schools will lose state funding if they offer any courses that "promote resentment of a particular race or class of people or is designed primarily for students of a particular ethnic group
Secretly placing a GPS on a car or monitoring a mans movement for long periods of time constitutes a government “search”, and therefore the mans constitutional rights were violated. They were also trying to determine whether movement in a private vehicle on city streets is "public" in nature. This just seems like they are trying to find justification in what they are doing and trying to make it seem like it is not an invasion of privacy. http://www.cnn.com/2012/01/23/justice/scotus-gps-tracking 8.

7) The law was required for 32 states; the other 18 + The District of Columbia already had regulations like this so they were exempt from the law requirements. 8) The law was opposed by many congressmen who would look to the Second Amendment, and thought that it wasn’t constitutional because of the way it restricted the regulation of ownership of handguns. B: Effects of the Brady Bill 1) "Control and treatment states had the same gun homicide rates before and after the Brady law passed," Cook said. "It made no discernible difference. There is no statistically significant effect."
Although Governor Jan Brewer in the article “Arizona Enacts Stringent Law on Immigration,” has a good point about the importance or working to solve our immigration crisis; however, this crisis does not mean that the police should be given the power to detain anyone suspected of being in the country illegally. Illegal immigration has been a major problem for many years now in the United States. Everyday thousands and thousands continue making their way into our country through the Mexican border, oceans and neighboring states. Many, including former President George W. Bush have attempted a reform, but have failed or only got so far because it was too controversial. However, Governor Jan Brewer took on the illegal immigration issue to a whole new level by signing the “nation’s toughest bill on illegal immigration into law”, as it was put by the NAACP (“Put an end to Racial Profiling”).

Implementing laws to reduce the number of immigrants entering the United States illegally that lead to racial profiling has caused many controversial issues and arguments among people. For example, on April 23,2010 Arizona Governor, Jan Brewer, signed S.B. 1070 into law. That would prevent some immigrants from entering the country illegally. The law requires Arizona police officers to question any one they reasonably suspect of being an illegal alien.
The government hopes to also gain the two hotels involved in the crime, sell them, and gain money for taxpayers (Barr). Unfortunately business owners aren’t the only citizens that neglect to report illegal immigrants, such as those in favor of illegal immigration. Those who disregard the law only undermine the policies set forth by the American government and ultimately hinder the enforcement of said laws. Here lies the biggest problem of present-day immigration, the United States government simply does not have the capacity to fully implement and uphold the current policies and laws that it has put in place. From massive borders to disobedient citizens, the United States government is unable to enforce their own policies of immigration.
Those illegally distributing alcohol could not use the legal system to resolve differences, so they had to resort to violence. In turn, forcing the police department to increase forces to enforce the prohibition law, and less for the other crimes . (http://eh.net/encyclopedia/article/miron.prohibition.alcohol) Prohibition banned only the manufacturing, sale and transport, but not consumption or possession of alcohol, so many people bought liquor before the 18th Amendment was passed. (www.1920-30.com/prohibition/) Criminal organizations mostly profited by the prohibition which in turn promoted other illegal activities.
