While we were working, they were protesting across the street at Sheriff Joe's
We NEED more Sheriff Joes, Like 2000 of them in WASHINGTON DC.

You got that right...and about every 50 feet on the border
Good pictures. I will bet a bunch of t hose protesters are illegal and have no right to protest. Sheriff Joe needs to be in charge of immergration.
Wow what racism, where are your ancestors from? Probably not here.
They came here legally, We have enough free loaders milking the system.
It's getting more difficult for me to pay for these people, my taxes are high enough. It's not racism it's self preservation.
If they come here legally I am all for them, if they are here Illegally I want therm removed forcibly and this is not a racial statement as I have many Mexican friends who have gone through the system or they were born here. They feel the same as I do.

Racism has nothing to do with it,Everyone is welcome to the USA through legal means,as my past generations did to come here.To come here illegally is a different topic and it has become politically incorrect to say this.Why? That is the big question and for Sheriff Joe to tackle this is correct and appropriate.

Racism isn't the issue here, it's illegals. Race may play into it and cannot be helped because most of those in AZ who are illegal are usually Hispanics. The same situation regarding illegals would involve a different "race issue" in Detroit or in the legal doctrines in Oklahoma. Solve the illegal issues and the majority of the racism issues you feel will go away. Now let's get back to shutter snapping.
Unfortunately with Mr. Arpallos system a lot of racial profiling is going on. A friends father, who was born and raised in Arizona and who's first language is english has been reported to the officials 4 or 5 times. The officials know by name and realize this is a nusances. People are ignorant and have used this law improperly. There are plenty of other illegals in this country besides latinos but they are not being targeted. Sounds like racism to me.

This discussion has another more proper place on this forum.
Sorry, didn't mean to spark a political debate(however interesting they are), just thought they were an interesting look at what took place. There were quite a few Hispanics from the jobsite who were with them all the way,and yes, they admitted to being illeagal. Built Lower Buckeye Jail a few years back, ICE showed up and one company lost over half their employees.

quite correct sir, I apologize for getting this started
A photograph can say a thousand words. It's part of the charm of photography. It's going to invoke different responses from different people. Laws shouldn't be broken, true. But, let's handle these issues in a better manner. As for the law enforcement, let's not forget they are only human and see through human eyes, and are not infallible. Sorry Bobber but this discussion is all based on the image and the feelings it has invoked in all of us. Don't get me wrong we are all entitled to our own opinions, and this is just mine. Let's get back to shooting.
Photos, that is.
