Openly harassing a large segment of the population isn't reform. It is just the opposite.

What part of Illegal immigration do the feds not understand. I'd say build a massive concrete wall on the border or stock the desert with Killer Robots.
So how does this usurp the federal gov't's authority over immigration policy?
And how much leeway do states have concerning federal laws anyway? The federal government has firearm laws, and each state has it's own laws about firearms, and a lot of cities have firearm laws. How is this different in terms of one being constitutional and the AZ law not?
Yeah. This is all about safety, security, and the feds not doing enough under Obama to stop the supposed lawlessness, alright.
The vast majority of "lawful contact with policeman" is no doubt petty traffic/pedestrian stops. In that case this law can affect anyone. Not just criminals.

So you think it would be perfectly acceptable for states to also violate the Constitution by declaring war on terrorism because the feds aren't doing enough?
I really don't think the personal opinions of a few "law and order" conservatives that the feds are suddenly not doing enough under a Democrat president is sufficient reason to defy the law.
I dunno, but by pretty much any definition, the current admin isnt doing as much as the previous one did in regards to the Mexican border.
It appears immigrants are required to carry their green cards anyway, so this shouldn't be much of a problem except for American citizens(who logically won't have the card), ironically. And they can probably prove citizenship via the courts.
And it seems you need to actually commit a crime for the officer to ask for your papers... so, what is the problem?

Well done, Obama.
Number of guardsmen on southern border under Bush: roughly 7k for about 2 years.
Number of guardsmen on southern border under Obama: well, supposedly about 1k are on the way.

@ FriendlyFire: What is non-criminal about an illegal alien.
