Shakira Speaks Out Against Arizona Immigration Law
Shakira has cleared her calendar and is heading to Phoenix on Thursday, where she plans to meet with the Mayor and Chief of Police to discuss ways to campaign against the controversial immigration law passed in Arizona last week.
The law — signed Friday by Republican Gov. Jan Brewer — makes it a state crime to be in the US illegally and directs police to question people about their immigration status if there is reason to suspect they’re illegal immigrants. The statue is believed to be the nation’s toughest on immigration, with even President Obama questioning its legality amid fears that the system could lead to racial profiling.

Does anyone really care what she thinks? She can stay the hell out of AZ as far as I am concerned. This law is far overdue and needed. And for all of the people that want to boycott AZ. Thank you and goodbye. We don’t need you as much as you need us.

They didnt say they would stop people in the street please you know how long that would take they wouldn’t have time to do anything else.
Yea they work all right just jump the wall and get a job. Maybe we should just sell these states back to Mexico. They aren’t being abused. They are illegal aliens get the papers and come over here legally.
She actually sounds like she has no idea what she is talking about at all!
Sing that’s what you are good at stick to that.
No one is being stopped in the street cause of the color of their skin, that’s ridiculous.

Do youknow how many Arizona residents have been murdered by these people. Yes it is a small percentage but there is always a small group who ruins it for everybody.
My friend who has been on the waiting list for citzenship for years and years FINALLY got it. You know how mad he is that he had to wait when all these other people come over and cut in front?
