We have not read the new Arizona law which is the subject of so much controversy. However, we have listened to innumerable interviews with people ranging from the governor through legislators, sherrifs and interviewees on news shows. After all that, we can only conclude that all the protestations about constitutionality and racial profiling must be based on either political considerations or on a perception that the law in inimical to self-interest. Based on the interviews we heard with those who authored the law and those who will be administering it, we say "Hooray for Arizona!" and for any of the other states who follow Arizona's lead. It seems to us, Arizona is not usurping the federal authority, but is merely helping the feds do the job they're supposed to do.
