The secret to life is the question that has plagued humanity for ages and will continue to do so. However, one only needs to ask one question: "What am i doing with MY life?" and in answering that will at least put them in the ballpark. For you cannot know life and what it is about if you yourself do not know your own particular life and what you are doing with it. Therefore, taking up a cause that threatens for an issue that threatens not only your own but your communities existence becomes in of itself a way to answer this self-reflective question. What are you doing with your life? How are you contributing to the fabric of this society, are you holding the spool or just a bystander? A life well lived can be measured by the effect one has on others lives that being said when you close your eyes at night can you say that you have positively effected another or are you a bottom feeder in the pool of society? How willing are you to step out of your comfort zone and your normal sphere to participate in something bigger than you? How dedicated would you be if you were told there was the possibility of legal repercussions or violence be it emotional or physical? Would you be a fair-weather supporter or grind your heels into the dirt taking the offenses you suffer as indication you are upsetting the status-quo? Ask yourself these questions then Look at these links and ask yourself the age old question: "What am I doing with my life?"
from one indifferent citizen to the next....
i love what you guys are doing. it does make you wonder cause so many times in life we are so content to just stand by and watch life happen and let things be decided for us when we could have had a deciding hand in it. I know i sure plan to get involved. Great job guys!!
ReplyDeletei mean just because im not supporting any causes dosent mean im not doing anything with my life. having a family being the father that supports his family, loves them and cares for them that is doing something as far as im concerned because thats one less broken family in america. and families are the bedrock of the american civilization
ReplyDeleteArizona's controversial new legislation to facilitate enforcement of federal immigration laws appears to be constitutional, at least on its face, although complex issues involving the statute's language and application create uncertainties about its ultimate legal fate.
ReplyDeleteThe U.S. Supreme Court relied on both types of implied preemption in its landmark decision in Pennsylvania v. Nelson in 1956, prohibiting state prosecutions for sedition against the United States because three federal anti-sedition statutes had created a "pervasive" federal structure that "occupied the field" and left "no room" for any action by the states!!!
ReplyDeleteThe law therefore does not necessarily create any kind of racial classification that would require the application of the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
ReplyDeleteThe law also criminalizes the solicitation of work by an undocumented immigrant in a public place, who gestures or nods to a would-be employer passing by. This part of the legislation is also unconstitutional as courts have held that the solicitation of work is protected speech under the First Amendment.
ReplyDeleteYou can't stop the waves of inmigrants with facist policies, no matter how facist they are. The only way to do that is by helping Latinamerican countries with their economies and improving their social situation. Otherwise you will have to deal with our presence 'till ourselves figure out how to solve our economics and social problems.
ReplyDeletei think colored people complain this law isnt about u, dont come into our country illegal
