Arizona's SB 1070 is some of the worst, most racist and counter-productive legislation in recent memory and people are speaking out against it and getting arrested for it. I want to show you some footage of that arrest, what an Arizona business and immigration attorney has to say about how this subsidizes racist lawsuits, and the list of only a few of the egregious points from the bill.

I would also like to note the acronym GIITEM for Gang and Immigration Intelligence Team Enforcement Mission.

I know its a few days old by now but Tancredo gave a talk at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and got shut down. Windows were broken, the talk was interrupted, glass was broken, and right-wingers screamed victimization which sadly, is true. These tactics don't work. Violence illegitimizes movements and aggravates the the right which, is historically the more violent side, to behave more violently. All it does is hurt the cause.
