Migrants sell up and flee Arizona ahead of crackdown

By Tim Gaynor Tim Gaynor – Sun Jul 25, 1:43 pm ET
PHOENIX (Reuters) – Nicaraguan mother Lorena Aguilar hawks a television set and a few clothes on the baking sidewalk outside her west Phoenix apartment block.

A few paces up the street, her undocumented Mexican neighbor Wendi Villasenor touts a kitchen table, some chairs and a few dishes as her family scrambles to get out of Arizona ahead of a looming crackdown on illegal immigrants.

"Everyone is selling up the little they have and leaving," said Villasenor, 31, who is headed for Pennsylvania. "We have no alternative. They have us cornered."

Millions would leave if the US enforced their own law.

I didn't say entering the country illegally is not a crime.

Liberal obfuscation, If they have entered the country illegally and have not answered for their crime they are criminals. Their criminal status doe not end until they answer for their crime. You cannot have correctly answered for your crime until you have been sentenced and correct the bad behavior. The only correction for this criminal behavior is to go back across the line.

Aside from the fact that the article misrepresent the Arizona law most likely intentionally. Being that it mirrors the Fed law it is impossible to say it does anything other than what the Fed law does.

Dude, did you miss the word "undocumented"?

Truth of the matter is, anyone who comes into this country with a valid visa and I-94 can apparently stay as long as they want. The I-94 is what determines the date they're supposed to leave the country; but the only thing that may actually happen to them is, they leave, and re-apply for another visa & I-94, and find out they've been "red-stamped" (denied re-entry) for 3-10 years. If determined they're in the country with an expired I-94, they can be deported -- because they're no longer legally in the country.

But the point of this story, sir, is that we're talking about "undocumented" people.
