    Arizona Law - Illegal immigration is still in controversy on how Law Enforcement will conduct proper immigration stauts checks. Having the proper procedures in place can elimanate other legal matters concerning racing profiling.

    I understand that Arizona is just trying to stop immigration but some of the laws and rules taking place are making it seem like it is allowed to racial profile. Though that may not be the case. People are thinking that if you look Mexican then the police can pull you over but I reality there most likely not going to do that. If you get pulled over for speeding and then for some reason the cop thinks you could be illegal then he can ask for paper work. I get that the law seems racial, but Arizonans should not care so much if your a citizen and have nothing to hide.

    Arizona immigration laws have consistently supported racial profiling and make it difficult for legal Latinos to avoid being harassed, interrogated and detained unlawfully. State laws should be fair and adhere with constitutional freedoms afforded all citizens. If you're an American citizen, you're afforded the same rights as other citizens and should not be detained unlawfully because you "look like an immigrant". This is where Arizona crosses the line with it's immigration laws.

    I understand how these immigration laws here in Arizona can make people feel, however i feel like if i have nothing to hide whats the problem. I still don't like the fact that it makes it so easy for police to racial profile because its almost insulting to get pulled over for no reason except skin color. I have seen cops pull people over just for skin color, especially in the northern part of Arizona and its wrong.

    This article explains the leniency of Arizona gun laws. People in the state of Arizona are even allowed to carry concealed weapons into some government buildings. Anyone over the age of 21 can possess a gun without a permit and without a complete background check.

    Author Kevin Cox discusses Arizona's lenient gun laws. The article implies that Arizona's gun laws are, perhaps, too lenient. People may purchase a firearm with more ease in Arizona than any other state.

    The contents of this article covers the lenient laws surrounding the law that allows citizens to carry concealed weapons with little to no training, and little to know knowledge of the purchasers background, placing society in danger.

    This sites confirms that Arizona has some of the most lenient gun laws, but that if the background had more restrictions it would be a violation of the 2nd Ammendment

    On April 23, 2010 Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer signed Senate Bill 1070 into law. The controversial bill gives Arizona law enforcement the authority to stop people whom officers have "reasonable suspicion" of being in the country illegally, detain these individuals while verifying immigration status, and arrest undocumented immigrants for transfer to ICE custody. Depending on who you ask, the controversial bill is either anti-immigrant, unconstitutional or a blessing.

    Republicans lawmakers in Arizona are pushing a bill that would limit the reach of any gun laws in to Arizona. The bill (HB 2291) would make it a felony for any federal agent to enforce federal law in Arizona concerning gun made and residing in the state. This bill is meant to send a message to Pres. Obama.

    Mid 2010, Arizona defined marraige as between a man and a woman. Arizona has a ways to go for equal rights.

    This article explains Arizona's new gun law proposed by Jan Brewer. In Arizona if you are at least 21 years of age you can now carry a concealed weapon with no permit required. This brings back our second amendment rights that many feared were diminishing. Citizens are obviously excited about the new law as it provides means for protection, but police are a little uneasy.

    This article states what complications Hispanic people face right now here in Arizona with police. The law states that a cop is allowed to arrest someone, granted they follow certain steps, if they have reasonable suspicion. Many people find that it borders racism and aren't comfortable with the new law.

    This is crazy its about how the copscan arrest you on the spot if you can't prove your citizenship status. Further more it states that if you buy a gun made in Arizona you don't have to register it.
  • dsmoliver1 on 31 Jan 15
     
    The weapon of choose becomes their Constitution right to bear arms. Perhaps that prospect will make police a little more concerned about who they round up on the streets. We doubt it. Weapon's instructors in Arizona feel cheated by the state's law makers as they are killing their business.
  • anonymous on 31 Jan 15
     
    It is wrong to be stopped by patrol just because you don't seem to look like you're from the US. As for the weapons not having to be licensed also defeats the purpose. I think anyone who owns a concealed weapon should be trained on how to use it, and with that you have to own a license.
  • anonymous on 31 Jan 15
     
    I defiantly disagree with both of these laws. I don't think it is right that a cop can pull someone over just to make sure they are legal. I also think in order to be allowed to handle a gun people should go through safety classes.
  • lukemclellan on 03 Feb 15
     
    I think there should be a little more added to both these laws. If you want to search someone regardless of race, gender, religion or whatever you should need probable cause. Also I think if you are going to handle any type of weapon you should have some background with weapons handling; maybe off free weapons safety classes at public ranges?

    Arizona has tried many things to stop illegal immigrants from coming into Arizona. Some of these things have included adding more police power by the borders, and building a wall. But what we really need to be looking at is stopping the illegal immigrants from getting what they want when they finally get into the United States because then they will stop coming in.

    Gov. Brewer signed a bill that gives married couples a better advantage to adopt a child than single people. This is concerning for gay and lesbian couples because in the state of Arizona, same-sex marriages are illegal, therefore making it even harder for a same-sex couple to adopt in the state of Arizona.
