Arizona - immigration

So Arizona has a new immigration law - not going to get started in the immigration debate just watching the knock effect from it. Right or wrong, the law has already had an effect above and beyond sparking debate nationwide on the topic of immigration.

Mexico has issued a travel advisory, advising its citizens against travelling to Arizona - how's that for ironic??

Many Mexican parents - legal and illegal - have been trying to push through the paperwork that will give their US born, legally American citizen, children dual American-Mexican citizenship so that if they, or family members, or siblings, are deported then the whole family can return to Mexico - and the LEGAL AMERICAN BORN members of the family can live there too so that the family doesn't end up separated and living in different countries.

And I thought the law wasn't actually in effect/being used yet but apparently it is...

shame the first publicized test of it was on an American born citizen.

Talking of fallout, some speaks for itself.
