Awesome! "OK... so a cop's title is "Law Enforcement Officer"... in order to be an "Illegal Immigrant" you have to be breaking the law of the United States of America... why would we not expect our "Law Enforcement Officers" to enforce the law of the United States of America? This is not a racist statement, this is not an anti-immigrant statement, I'm not a tea-partier, Im a slightly left of center gay American whose partner of 8 years is a Canadian. My partner goes through a massive ordeal in order to stay in this country legally, which he does... Im not able to sponsor him for permanent residence, and there is no legal pathway for him to gain permanent residence... so for now we live with renewing his temporary status based on his job and NAFTA, hoping for either an employer willing to sponsor him for permanent residence (a 5 year long, very expensive process) or the repeal/invalidation of DOMA, or the passage of the UAFA bill. He has to prove his legality in this country quite often, and is required to have his passport with proof of his legality on him at all times... I am more a victim of discrimination, as a US Citizen who cannot sponsor my permanent partner for US residence, than these illegal aliens who are breaking the law of the united states" I just read the best reaction to the immigration law ever on CNN.
