yahoo is still reporting the myth that the Az supreme court ruling was a victory for the Az gov

I notice that the so-called reporter is a person named liz goodwin

Have no idea who she is, but using google, it looks like she is a blogger, and I suspect with leanings to the right, based on some of the other articles I have seen

Yahoo is such a rag. No surprise that they would hire a CEO who lied on his resume

The state cannot make it a crime for an illegal immigrant to work.

The state cannot authorize state officers to arrest people without a warrant if officers have probable cause to believe a person is an illegal.

The state cannot make all immigrants to register with the federal government.

The high court kept in place something that already is legal, where the police can try to verify a person's status with the feds only when making stops or arrests. Those stops or arrests would be because of non-related immigration issues. In fact that is already the law if you are stopped for something, police can already do a check on you

The law was rejected. Nothing new was added. It was a huge defeat for racists, and a victory for advocates of Civil Rights
