Just heard this;

Wow... I missed a lot yesterday/last night....

Somewhat like the stop sign in the middle of nowhere, that nobody stops at. One day the cop shows up and everybody becomes a law abiding citizen..

I don't have a finely tuned sarcasm meter today... so I am not sure if this was meant as sarcasm...
However... with that said...
Repetition of hearsay is foolish.
Those who repeat what they hear without benefit of engaging their brain should just hold up a sign that says "FOOL".
(No - not Funkfool!)
Repetition of statements of questionable fact can be criminal.
Re: Fire in a theatre and you are pointing people to an area without an exit - yelling "EXIT" and they die - it is as if you pushed them into the fire yourself.
And THAT - my friends, is EXACTLY what these people who are making these comments want... repetition of falsehoods make them begin to appear as pseudo fact.

Please.
Do youself and others a favor.
Read the bill yourself and make informed intelligent comments:
Since I don't see where anyone has posted it...
Here it is: SB1070
And since the site is getting so much traffic for the .pdf ...
Here is the Legislative fact sheet: FACT SHEET FOR S.B. 1070

After reading it... you may have different ideas of what this law does and does not do.

Short semi pertinant story, years ago, I worked in a resturant cleaning up overnight. For the most part, I'd get out between 4 and 5 in the morning.
Due to circumstances at the time, I was hoofing it. In that time, I got "stopped" by the police about 3 times. Showed ID, told 'em where I was headed and that was that.. Except one cold night, When the cop actually gave me a ride home..

Did I think they were "abusing" their power? No, I figured they were actually doing their job. I was 19-20 y/o at the time so, yeah, in some circles that could be considered "suspicious"

+1 - been in the EXACT same place... Well - except my hair was/is really long - so I got stopped.
Hey - I wasn't doing any thing wrong - so WHAT HAVE I GO TO BE WORRIED ABOUT!?

Also: Elhuero... well reasoned comments.

I call him stuff all of the time [ROFL1]- mostly things I can't type here.

ETA: See, again, this is what I get for posting without doing a refresh BEFORE I make the post...I got beat to the punch!
