Bloomberg.com reports that the argument that undocumented immigrants present a risk to public safety is completely false. Indeed, "The Department of Public Saftey's 'crime clock' calculated that a major crime was committed in the state every 1 minute and 32 seconds in 2002. By 2010, the rate had fallen to every 2 minutes and 6 seconds." The article goes on to postulate that Arizona has more of a "demogogy problem", most clearly evidenced by overreaching politicians like Russell Pearce, the recently recalled Arizona Senate president and author of the current law.

Thank you for such a fantastic blog. Where else could anyone get that kind of info written in such a perfect way? I have a presentation that I am presently working on, and I have been on the look out for such information.
