Arizona H-1B Workers Advised to Carry Papers At All Times
dcblogs writes "In the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court ruling Monday on Arizona's immigration enforcement law, H-1B workers are being advised to keep their papers on them. About half of all H-1B visa holders are employed in tech occupations. The court struck down several parts of Arizona's law but nonetheless left in place a core provision allowing police officers to check the immigration status of people in the state at specific times. How complicated this gets may depend on the training of the police officer, his or her knowledge of work visas, and whether an H-1B worker in the state has an Arizona's driver's license. An Arizona state driver's license provides the presumption of legal residency. Nonetheless, H-1B workers could become entangled in this law and suffer delays and even detention while local police, especially those officers and departments unfamiliar with immigration documentation."
I'm convinced that the state of Arizona just hates anyone that either isn't white, or from the US.
The biggest problem facing the States isn't MIB
It's the clash in between the Liberals and the Conservatives - leaving so much grey areas in between that people in the middle do not know how to handle
On one side the Liberals declare that people entering the USA, even illegally, should be considered as "legal", so long as they do not make trouble
On the other side, the Conservatives reacted by enacting local state laws such as what Arizona, Alabama, Virginia are doing
There are many born and bred Americans who do look like Mexicans or people from Latin America - these are the people who will be harassed, whose liberty will be threatened, just because they "do not look like Americans"
On the other hand, there are black-skinned people from abroad (from Latin America and Africa) that you just can not differentiate from African Americans - and they are the fortunate ones, because no one will dare to check their ID, for fear that the NAACP and Jesse Jackson will jump on their throats
America is in a bad shape right now - not only economically but also in term of competitiveness - and America just can NOT waste more time shadow boxing with itself
Muchas Gracias, Señor Edward Snowden !
This is entirely a right-wing issue, and the flames of racism are being fanned entirely by so-called "conservatives"
Oh, c'mon !!!
If blaming everything on the "Conservatives" can make America a better place, you'll have my full support
But it ain't gonna be that way
You insisted that there is no liberal ever support the illegals, in fact, you said:
I've literally never, in my entire life, heard any self-described "liberal" say this.
Well, isn't Obama a "Liberal" ?
What about Obama's Immigration Directive ?

Muchas Gracias, Señor Edward Snowden !
