Fuck the Feds

(FOX News) — The Justice Department has filed a lawsuit against Alabama’s new controversial immigration law, essentially fighting Alabama on grounds similar to its legal battle with Arizona over that state’s controversial law.
In both cases, the Justice Department argues that the states are overstepping their authority by wading into something that is a strictly federal responsibility: immigration enforcement.
Gov. Robert Bentley signed the Alabama law in June, but it’s not set to take effect until Sept. 1. The law makes it a crime to be an undocumented immigrant in Alabama and allows law enforcement to detain individuals they have a “reasonable suspicion” of being in the country illegally. The law also makes it illegal to give undocumented immigrants rides and requires school districts to check on the immigration status of students who enroll.
The law is modeled on Arizona’s immigration law, parts of which have been blocked by federal court. It’s said to be the strictest state-level immigration law in the country.
The law has already faced lawsuits from civil rights groups and others, and Alabama religious leaders announced Monday their own lawsuit against the law, saying, “the bishops have reason to fear that administering of religious sacraments, which are central to the Christian faith, to known undocumented persons may be criminalized under this law.”

  2. ZILLA - we, here in Alabama, have our very OWN treasonous motherfokkers, including those so called 'religious leaders'- they know damn well the law is not to prevent them from giving the sacraments to some poor illegal bastard who just got run over by a truck ( driven, most likely, by other illegals) but the law is to prevent companies hiring them, landlords renting to them, etc.
    Buncha dhimmicrat bastids.
