I swear, sometimes these stories just write themselves, with news falling like manna from Heaven. THIS is one of those stories. According to CNN.com, Law enforcement officials in Hudspeth County, Texas have sworn-in actor/martial artiste/musician extraordinaire/acclaimed egomaniac/accused wife, girlfriend & female staff-beater/professional asshole Steven Segal as a deputy sheriff. According to the San Antonio Express, he will “help to control the U.S.-Mexico border. Honestly, I don’t know where to begin…

The Big Deal Over the AZ Immigration Law (and Why You Should Care)

July 28, 2010 by ttag

Unless you’ve been living under a rock (or IN Iraq, I suppose) you’ve probably figured out by now that U.S. Immigration laws and border security is a right ruddy mess. Complete SNAFU. FUBAR’d to the max. Our Southern border is to security what a colander is to liquid impermeability. That is to say, it’s easier to sneak into the U. S. of A. than it is to, oh, I dunno, sneak into a White House official dinner. Which isn’t saying much, come to think of it, but still.

Unless you’ve had your head buried in the the sand, you’ve likely heard about the little law they passed way out West in Arizona. WHAT you’ve heard depends on where you get your news. If you listen to ABC/CBS/NBC/CNBC/MSNBC or read most daily newspapers, you’ve heard that a bunch of bigoted, narrow-minded, provincial, pig-headed, anti-poor, anti-immigrant yahoos passed a law that will force a bunch of jack-booted thugs in police uniforms to racially profile, round up, beat the crap out of and then deport a host of honest, hard-working undocumented aliens, who are guilty only of wanting the same things you and I want. If, on the other hand, you get your news and information from Fox or Talk Radio, you will have heard that Arizona has passed a law that will force the United States to enforce it’s very own Constitution, treating illegal aliens as . . . well . . . illegal. As always, the truth lies somewhere in the middle.
