4. It's sad that something like this has to happen.
This new law has done nothing but divide our community. The Capital Hill area, which was a thriving Hispanic area, is almost dead right now. Apparently many families have taken their children out of school because of deportation fears. Many legal citizens are also being harassed because they're seen as being "illegals" because of the color of their skin.

The author of this bill wants to pass another bill to deny US citizenship to any child born to illegal immigrants here in the state. This guy is a piece of crap, and he is pushing this state into something ugly.

Here's a good article that explains the situation.
