I'm disturbed this week with a few things. First of all, the new law in Arizona discussing the Police and their handling of illegal aliens. I've heard so much about this from so many sources, so I decided to investigate …

As I watched Kevin Faulconer and Tony Young on KUSI this morning, it struck me how dishonest they both were. They both seem to deny the things they and the Mayor have done to strip protection from the citizens of …
