    - On the left, do you have "News Feed" highlighted, and it's not a sub-group? -- nm - JaxSean Jul 23, 14:12 4
      - yeah it -- nm - Remlik Jul 23, 14:15 3
        
        i shighlighted -- nm - Remlik Jul 23, 14:15 2
        
        Try the edit options? I just changed mine and *A LOT* more show up now. -- nm - JaxSean Jul 23, 14:17 1

- I'm all for them allowing the implementation of the law just so we can see what happens. -- nm - Mop (219 lbs) Jul 23, 14:39
- I suppose this is true with almost every issue, but it seems like so many miss the point on this one. - Dr.Vermin Jul 23, 14:10 6
  - that would be like a state court allowing me to sue you there for copyright infringement under federal law - chuckles Jul 23, 14:15 5
    - But the 'action' in this situation would still federal... AZ would just be reporting or handing over these people to the feds, right? - Dr.Vermin Jul 23, 14:21 4
      - without knowing exactly what the federal immigration statute is, that still sounds like enforcement of a federal law by state actors to me -- nm - chuckles Jul 23, 14:23 3
        
        That's ridiculous, they're not enforcing the law, they're identifying them and then handing them over to the Feds for enforcent. -- nm - Stephen (Status Seeker) Jul 23, 14:32 1
        
        if the purpose of the federal law is to both identify and then adjudicate violators, even the identification could amount to "enforcement" - chuckles Jul 23, 14:35
        
        Fair enough. - Dr.Vermin Jul 23, 14:25
