Al Sharpton: We're Ready to Commit Civil Disobedience Over Arizona Immigration Bill
Posted by Jim Hoft on Sunday, April 25, 2010, 12:39 PM
70% of Arizona voters agree with new immigration legislation signed into law on Friday.
But, not Al Sharpton or Barack Obama.
(Seraphic Secret)
And, New York City’s Al Franken says he’s ready to organize protests and commit civil disobedience over the new Arizona immigration law.
The New York Post reported, via Free Republic:
The Rev. Al Sharpton says he will challenge Arizona’s new immigration bill in court and on the streets.
Sharpton is joining Lillian Rodriguez Lopez from the Hispanic Federation to announce a legal challenge to the bill. They say activists are also prepared to commit civil disobedience to fight the Arizona immigration bill.
Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer signed the bill Friday. It requires police to question people about their immigration status — including asking for identification — if they suspect someone is in the country illegally.
The law will take effect in late July or early August.
At least he gave the police a warning. Now they can be ready for him.

Mr. Hoft,
Maybe it was a Freudean slip, but didn’t you mean Mr. Sharpton and not Mr. Franken?
holden commented:
It’s so easy for people who don’t live here in Phoenix to complain about this.
Jerry Haberer commented:
I was about to make the same observation …..
Valerie commented:
Oh, I want to see Al Sharpton pull this one off.
In many parts of the country, the worst race relations of all are between blacks and more recent immigrants, such as Koreans and hispanics.
Some of the people most strongly opposed to illegal immigration are black people and union workers who think their jobs are being taken by illegal immigrants.
I’m going to be interested to see who is along to support Al Sharpton and his efforts — and whether any of them come from any kind of border state.
Xenu's Paradox commented:
Great… Organize protests. Then when they inevitably turn violent as all leftard protests do, the cops can start arresting people and checking their citizenship status.
Valerie commented:
Here’s a copy of the bill (I think) H/t Hot Air.

But of course it’s the tea party people and the crazy right wingers who are lawless. Can you imagine the howling and screeching if the tea party people announced they were going to engage in civil disobedience?

And you thought the TeaPartyers were violent!

These people will do wonders in their created chaos to wittle away more Kommiecrat votes and media bias gets another eye opener…
Gman commented:
I wonder how long before Sharpton brings of the fact that Arizona was the last state to observe MLK holiday as proof that Arizona is racist.
Just_Saying commented:
You know, we hear that the US has never fought a war (except the Civil War) on our own soil, and we’re so lucky. I think with 30 million illegal aliens fighting our laws, we are currently fighting a war within our own borders, and have been ever since aliens have been given a pass!!

Valerie commented:
Here’s Al Franken’s official position on the issue, from some time ago.
http://www.alfranken.com/pages/immigration/
He’s in favor of
1. enforcement of the current laws in the workplace
2. a guest worker program
3. tamper-proof identification of guest workers
4. He’s probably in favor of a too-lenient standard for offering citizenship: it does include an affirmative showing of good-faith attempt to comply with all of our laws including the payment of taxes. His outline would be perfect, if it excluded citizenship for those who enter this country illegally.
D commented:
Go ahead Al and show us more how violent the left is!
Dennis Thompson commented:
And we are ready to commit civil disobedience over the steady usurpation of our rights by the Obammunists.

I guess Obama should stay out of AZ. He might have to show his papers.

When did Arizona elect Sharpton to represent them?
Meanwhile, I’ve often wondered what the tipping point would be. Not this, I hope.
Greg commented:
What measures do you use for profiling in a community that looks 85% Spanish. This bill only provides officers with backing to ask for legal id, in addition to sobriety test, liscence check, vehicle tax status, vehicle inspection status, vehicle insurance status. Without a legal id all these other legal requirements are meaningless. Sharpton needs to go find another fake rape feaux pax
jerryl commented:
yep the msm will say nothing about obamaos buddy al braking the law plus the threat the gov of nj got from that union thug ect ect
crissy matthews commented:
Considering the AZ law is nothing but enforcement of existing federal laws regarding illegal immigration enforcement statutes, wonder how Sharpie Sharpton is going to weasel his way around this. Had better call Twanny up and tell her to start saving excrement for the big protests.
Newt will be driving the bus, of course.
Jim commented:
For the last year, peaceful protests have been organized by the “Tea Party” movement. Now the left will demonstrate how to pillage, burn and get arrested. Let the riots begin.
Militant Conservative commented:
Remember Ya’ll there was another law to pass as well.
Arizona became the third state to have open carry or concealed carry is your constitutional RIGHT. No paperwork needed, you just have to be legal to own the firearm. KEEP that in mind AL. We don’t take kindly to trouble makers. powder is dry.
Just_Saying commented:
Joan, #17, when did anybody elect Sharpton to represent them?

Its such a travesty that blacks are being discriminated against and their civil rights being blatantly violated, in a city ruled by a black mayor. The Chinese community is on a witch-hunt in Oakland CA and Al Sharpton is missing. I’d even settle for the other Rev Al ..

Ask Al Sharpton to explain this:
A report issued by Maricopa County’s Attorney General Andrew Thomas in October 2008 reveals the extent of Arizona’s problem with crime committed by illegal immigrants.
In 2007, illegal immigrants accounted for:
10% of sex crimes convictions
11% of murders convictions
13% of stolen cars convictions
13% of aggravated assaults convictions
17% of those sentenced for violent crimes
19% of those sentenced for property crimes
20% of those sentenced for felony DUI
21% of crimes committed with weapons
34% of those sentenced for the manufacture, sale or transport of drugs
36% of those sentenced for kidnapping
44% of forgeries
50% of those sentenced for crimes related to “chop shops”
85% of false ID convictions
96% of smuggling convictions
Illegal immigrants make up 19 percent of those convicted of crimes in Maricopa County and 21 percent of those in county jails.
Illegal immigrants make up an estimated 9 percent of the county’s population.
It is estimated that each violent crime cost citizens $20,000, and each property crime cost citizens $4363 per offense.

They are going for “broke”…Legalize illegals and create a permanent democrat majority…Bankrupt the country in the process, so what??? I’ve said it before, but…99% of illegals will pay no taxes if granted citizenship. These are poor people who will take more in medicare, medicaid, food stamps, social security, in-home counseling, bi-lingual education costs, tax credits, and programs we don’t even know about than they will ever pay in taxes…If we want to legalize immigrants, let’s make sure we get our share of doctors, engineers, and skilled artisans, not the persons who break into our country illegally, illiterate in their own country, along with other criminals including gang members and drug smugglers…The Feds are insane!!!!

Joanne commented:
What, a policeman can ask for ID anytime to citizens, why couldn’t they ask about immigration status to those who might not be citizens. Isn’t it against the law to be in the U.S. illegally. The only people with a problem with this are people who hire illegals and are illegals.
Civil disobedience? Illegals do not have rights – what is so hard to figure out about that. I wonder if Obama would mind a few million Canadian conservatives coming over the border and voting in the November elections – what is good for the Marxist, is good for the Capitalist.
Joanne commented:
If you want to know what the left is up to, just pay attention to what they are accusing the right of doing.
Scott Wiggins commented:
Thank god we have millions of persons who want to join our team by immigrating to this great nation…However, just as the NY Yankees and the Pittsburg Steelers select only the best to join their teams, we in the United States should select only the best persons to become citizens. It is insanity to legalize those who break into our country illegally…If we need people lets make sure we get our share of the best and brightest, not just whomever manages to escape immigration and border patrol authorities…The dems are going for a supermajority thinking that most illegals will vote democratic…They don’t get care what mess we are left, or how much it cost, or how we lose our American identity in the process…

I’m a conservative so of course I’m strictly opposed to illegal immigration.
That said, my point still stands. Collective punishment is Nazism. As a student of history, I say never again, and I will strike back twice as hard against any officer of the law under the Obama regime who arrests me without cause.
clyde commented:
some of our gongressmen do not seem to who they are representing. a hispanic name does not make you a mexican. the law does not single out hispanics but anyone from any other country than the u.s.a. for instance arabs or chinese. police still need probable cause to stop anyone .illegals can easily avoid detection by obeying our laws.perhaps that is too much to expect.just stop drug dealing and car stealing etc.

All the more reason to send troops to the border.
Civil disobedience in protest of protecting our nation’s security from illegal infiltrators. The Founding Fathers are rolling over in their graves.

It seems the illegal aliens are already committing civil disobedience. That’s the problem.

I understand that, but I’d rather get locked up for something that’s an actual crime. Being brown isn’t (though at the rate things are going in AZ, that could change)..
Left Coast Conservative commented:
#48 – we all got passports two years ago – good for positive ID. Planning on carrying it with me – and, I’m not hispanic.
In other words – quit complaining – carry ID – work to move the illegals out instead of being part of the problem.
liberalavenger commented:
Under the new law, ID isn’t good enough. As a brown person I am forced to show proof of birth.
I’m not whining, just venting. The law probably will not stand, but if it does, it is time I part ways with the Obama regime’s big government incursion into our livelihoods.
sue commented:
It is ironic how the majority of those opposed to this bill do not live in a state bordering Mexico and have not lived close to a border, and so have not experienced what it is like to watch how illegal immigration hurts our schools, hospitals, etc. I witnessed it first hand growing up in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. I no longer live near the border, but I will never forget what the people there deal with on a daily basis. Those people would want this protection. The citizens of this country should be protected and our borders should be enforced. This has nothing to do with racism. This has to do with economics, quality of life, quality of educational system, protection of our hospitals, safety, and fairness to citizens.

Geez, I posted a link to the text of the law at #8. Do try to read it. There is a prerequisite “lawful contact” “where reasonable suspicion exists” that may not solely consider race, color, or national origin, and a driver’s license is presumed to be good identification as a citizen.
So, a traffic stop still requires probable cause, and if you are an American adult, you have a driver’s license, right?
I’d suggest that, if your proposed traffic stop without probable cause etc., happens, you keep your cool and call a lawyer, because there is a handsome payout for false imprisonment in this country.

Liberalavenger, stop with the melodrama.
Read the new law.
Reasonable suspicion and probable cause are still the guiding principles.
There to be expected if your talking about a traffic infraction or if you’re in the Country ILLEGALLY.
If you’re on the right side of those, I doubt you have much to worry about.
Sounds to me you just don’t like cops.
sue commented:
#64 – How ridiculous. Being brown in this country will not be a crime. Geez. Right now, being white is a real handicap. I know, I just went through the college app process with my son. They prefer brown.
If you are white, people just assume you are priviliged and racist. Being brown has incredible advantages.
Hera commented:
We don’t need so-called comprehensive immigration reform we need enforcement of existing immigration laws.It’s a crime to enter the United States illegally, Arizona is seeking to enforce that law.What’s interesting is that every
time illegals take to the streets more and more Americans turn against them.
Auntie Em commented:
liberalavenger….you must understand the rule of law. You suck if you think assaulting a police officer is going to make you look “bad ass.” We’ve got a problem in this country with Hispanics coming in the back door illegally. This is a national security issue as well as an economic one. If you aren’t going to provide your proof of citizenship when asked, then you should be locked up. You along with Obama and every illegal immigrant in this country.

It’s time to put these clowns in their place! Sharpton is inciting violence and disobedience to the law, his time is long over due to spend the rest of his pathetic life where he and his ilk belong, behind bars in a concrete cell but that’s only if his big head can fit through the cell door without causing structural damage.
MAKE AN EXAMPLE OF THIS HORRIBLE, EXTREMELY PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR A MAN and anyone else who wants to USE the law only when it suits them and then dump on it when it doesn’t!
Chris Vehr commented:
Key word in all of this is “illegal”. Just enforce it. If they aren’t legal, just get them out. If it requires profiling, just do it. Do what it takes to make things right and then enforce and follow up.
I don’t know why it’s so hard to undestand.
jef costello commented:
What happened to the minimum wage? Oh, you leftists’ and Dems now have the illegal wage. After decades of failing the middle class now you want to reboot with illegals. Nice try, the game is over Obama. Bring that fat racist Al Sharpton to AZ, we’ll show you some justice you racist bitch.

I live in Arizona. I am a white female. I was driving home one night right after the bars closed with a friend of mine who had been drinking (thank God I had not been). A cop pulled me over because the light bulb that shines on my license plate was burned out. He asked me for my id, proof of insurance and I had to show it to him. My point being that whenever you get pulled over for any infraction you are required to show id. I don’t get what the big deal with this new bill is. If your legal you will have id. If you are not, you will get sent back where you came from. Doesn’t everyone have proof of citizenship in there wallet? If you don’t too bad, so sad.
Dagny commented:
I think ALL the states should come up with new laws to keep the democrats busy until fall. They will be so busy protesting in each state and taking up legislation to counter it that they won’t have time to harm our country any more than they already have. It will also show them to be what they are- unhinged troublemakers and lawbreakers. A perfect counter to the peaceful Tea Party gatherings.
Ulises commented:
Mr. Sharpton is a business man and he’s been looking for an oportunity to expand his race business to the Latino market, that’s all there is to it. Problem is, you need “victims” for that, and those like me that arrived here legally know that this country gave us opportunities that we didn’t have back home. So good luck with the “victims” stuff.. it’s not going to work….
Fuzzy commented:
Seriously? Millionaire black activist reverends are going to refuse to show Arizona police their proof of citizenship if asked? Uh huh.
Bookmark this page, though, because if Obamacare goes into effect (i.e. for some reason isn’t repealed between next year and 2014), there will be MILLIONS who do not comply and who challenge the constitutionality of the mandate to buy health insurance. That’s some civil disobedience that will make a difference. And you can bet that civil disobedience will be “unpatriotic,” “racist,” and “hate mongering.”
Nancy Riley commented:
The Nat’l Guard should arrest Sharpton the minute he hits Arizona soil..
He has stated he is coming to “commit civil disobedience”..A CRIME !!
Al Sharpton, is a race baiter and he is self serving, there is absolutely nothing Christian about what he/or Jesse Jackson do..they are hate mongers and will NEVER be looked at in the same way as Martin Luther King.
Martin wanted blacks and whites to walk hand in hand in peace…….
I hope all 70% of the Arizonians who agree with the bill will be there to send Sharpton packing !
impeach now commented:
I support the immigrants who come here legally-pay for their legal papers-follow the law–assimulate, learn english, pay taxes. The first thing they do is use our benefits–SSL (they are draining social security) and our emergency rooms. Over 100 hospitals CLOSED due to the immigrants. States are being sucked dry because of the bennies they get. So many babies, sonograms, foster parent programs are paid by every state for illegals. They send home money–tax free. Austrialia and Canada you must have lived 5 years in their country to receive ANY benefits. But it not hispanics its Africans, Chinese, and thousands of ISLAMICS–who HATE Americans. Michigan is a war zone–its gone. They are coming in through CANADA. I say impeach OBAMA–Al sharpton is BIG RACIST!! He hates whites like OBAMA. Very, very anti-american..destroy coal, NASA, edcuation, and make America defensless–we could be drilling right now–and using clean Nuke energy. We are going back to 1980–

ICE Busts Massive Human Smuggling Ring That Stretches Length of U.S.
FOXNews.com
More than 800 law enforcement agents swooped down on a massive human smuggling ring in Arizona early Thursday morning, delivering a “stunning blow” to a criminal network that helped shuttled illegal immigrants all around the country.
Inside the U.S., the owners and operators of the Tucson-based Saguaro Roadrunner Shuttles, America’s Shuttles, Guerro’s Shuttles and Nogales Express Shuttles were all targeted in the raid, as were the operators of a fifth shuttle company in Phoenix, Sergio’s Shuttle.
“This isn’t a mom and pop enterprise. It’s major international crime operating across borders with profits literally into the billions,” Morton said.
Officials said they seized $10 million in assets, including real estate, vehicles used for the smuggling and other property.
Col.Smeag commented:
The Shuttle smuggler were not the only example… we had a illegal in Chandler rapping little girls after their parent went to work… Rancher Krentz dead… drugs … murder… gang violence.. wake up Americans this law is not about race it’s about stopping Liberals from preventing the police from doing their jobs with “Sanctuary Cities”.
