76. I'm looking forward to the lawsuit.

This law's defenders say it'll only affect undocumented workers (actually, they say "illegal aliens," but I reject that terminology), but here's a natural-born citizen who was arrested for failing to provide proof of citizenship. As far as I know, it is not and never has been illegal for an American to leave his home without his birth certificate on his person.

If AZ gets away with this outrage, it'll set a dangerous precedent.
