Hows Come Nobody is Boycotting Georgia?

[1042 Trooper]

They just passed a law even better than Arizona's illegal immigration law but so far, nobody seems to be too worked up about it. People sure are funny

I guess Georgia isn't really thought of as a hot bed of illegal immigrants that Arizona is.

Thank you for putting me on your non-person list. It says more about you than about me. I use the pronouns "you" and "your" loosely.

Georgia has one of the fastest growing illegal alien populations in the country.


Arizona was first and much closer to the Peoples Republic of California…

It's cause Georgia is too far away from California and they don't want to drive that far LOL

Is that not the pure truth?!

Because it has little to do with either Charlie Sheen, or whatever the mindless "news topic" of the day happens to be right now.

Really? I guess I had no idea.

At this point, nobody cares very much about Arizona, and everyone knows that the law is largely unenforceable. So why should Georgia's adoption of a similarly unenforceable laws arouse any interest?

Oklahoma took a somewhat different approach. Whenever you get a license of any sort from the state -- driver license, medical license, hairdresser license, whatever -- you have to sign an affidavit that you are not in the country illegally. Falsifying the statement is a crime and you can be imprisoned.

Don't mention it. You've earned it.

Any state that passes any law dealing with illegal aliens is just p!$$!ng in the wind. It will make zero difference because the feds won't honor the law and refuse to do their part. About the only thing the states can do is limit services for illegals and make it as tough on them as possible. Illegals will leave a state that does that.

IMO the people who would boycott our state because of this law, are people I wouldn't want here to begin with.

I'll have to actually read the law to comment further.

Politicians seem to like passing symbolic laws.
