When your state rests on the shoulders of Mexico it is hard to deny the need for border control and immigration safety. Arizona, being that state must remain diligent in protecting the people from the invasion of illegal aliens. This is not to say that America should not have immigrants anymore, for the county itself is a birthright of immigration, but strong regard for the method in which people immigrate into the county should be sustained. According to text, “Arizona is the sixth largest state in the lower forty-eight” (Gawronski & Dille, 2013).

Should Civil Rights be for all people, legal and illegal? Certainly, there has to be a line drawn in the sand saying what we can and cannot do for the people of this country. Civil Rights is a hogwash phrase; it is impossible with 320 million people in to objectify a law that will protect the rights of all the people, better yet appease them. “Nothing’s going to change that I’m undocumented. The reality is that people are coming after undocumented people, and I do have that fear that something can change today, tomorrow.

If you are not legal, even by good means, you are not legal. You have no rights, if you are not an American, simple as that.

Arizona was not born of that constitution, but inherent on the dry desert plain and grew into a founding sight for cultural understanding.

To the many who contest against the cancer of this one law, understand Arizona is home to thousands of people of every race, creed, culture, orientation, and language. Arizonans speak Mojave, Navajo, Spanish, English, Korean, and Vietnamese. Residents of Phoenix are nearly equally Hispanic at 41.3% as they are White at 45.1% according to City-Data.com (Phoenix, Arizona,
