I'd worry about the links that I posted today in this thread.
That is some troubling news.

Well that sums up this 20 some page thread between me an you. ^^/

If I didn't address something, I probably simply didn't disagree with the premise. You have some fine ideas on how to address the problem in Arizona, but I think many believe here that more direct, lawful, measure must be taken. Thus this Arizona law.

MMM:"Sit in front of Home Depot and follow trucks that pick up undocumented workers for day labor. Go to any farm and ask to see the docs and tax records of all their workers.
Go to any cannery or meat processing plant and ask to see the docs and tax records of all their workers."

Isn't this what the government can do now but really isn't allocating the resources? Also your follow the truck scenerio is exactly what the State law enforcement can not do now, even with the new Arizona state law. Because you don't know they are undocumented. They also have to be lawfully stopped. By not allowing this state law, there is no way law enforcement can stop or follow those trucks.

West had the good point on how do you really identify these companies/businesses to do an illegal check?

Okay, I'm going to go watch "Crossing Over" with Harrison Ford again.
