Arizona Immigration Law: Feds May Sue Arizona (VIDEOS)

by itchyfish

Attorney General Holder made an appearance on ABC’s “This Week” on 5/09/10 at which time he voiced concern that enforcement of the Arizona immigration law could lead to racial profiling.

Holder said “we could potentially get on a slippery slope where people will be picked on because of how they look as opposed to what they have done.”

The Associated Press reported on the appearance of Attorney General Holder on “This Week” in a 5/09/10 article entitled: ‘Holder Warns Arizona Law Could Create ‘Slippery Slope’ Toward Racial Profiling.’

Holder reportedly said the Justice Department was “considering all of our options,” including a lawsuit either on grounds that the Arizona law had pre-empted federal powers or was a violation of federal civil rights statutes.

Radio talk show host Lou Dobbs appeared on ‘The O’Reilly Factor’ on 5/11/10 and gave his opinion about a potential lawsuit of the Federal government against Arizona.

Dobbs said that he thinks it would be a great thing for the country if the Federal government would sue Arizona and he enumerated many reasons for this opinion when he discussed the issue with Bill O’Reilly.

Dobbs thinks we need clarity in this matter, and that the American people want action. He also discussed the 10th amendment to the Constitution as it sets out states’ rights.

Hume talked about the ‘slippery slope’ words used by Holder when he appeared on “This Week.” Hume reiterated the language of the Arizona law about lawful stop, detention and arrest, and what constitutes reasonable suspicion. He especially said what reasonable suspicion is NOT that is specific to the Arizona immigration law.
