Arizona. Criminal dirtbags try to block laws and remain secret.

@ 01:02 PM (4 months, 20 days ago)

Talk about some cowardly scumbuckets, these pukes are beyond belief. Short take: The pro-illegals and plantation owners are trying every stunt possible to block Arizona's new laws. The Judge has ruled against them so far. One of the rulings had to do with the plaintiffs showing damages, which they didn't do. They just claimed that people/business would be damaged by these laws. So, they amended or refiled and got a couple of businesses to claim they were damaged by following the provisions of the law, which goes into effect January 1st. BUT they want to remain anonymous. Cowardly filth. They don't want the public to learn that they knowingly hired illegals. Hey, I'll bet it's no secret to the people around there, it's simply a matter of the gutless cowards not wanting to admit it. Funny part, if these criminals admit to knowingly hiring illegals it may subject them to federal prosecution.

Here's another kicker, even if the pro-illegal bunch can get a judge to stop or delay the new law, in many ways, IT'S TOO LATE. Many businesses have already screened their employees and sent illegals packing.

Cowards

The state Attorney General’s Office and Arizona’s 15 county attorneys want business groups suing to block the state’s new employer sanctions law to reveal the names of three employers who knowingly employ illegal immigrants.

The business groups’ lawsuit seeks to keep the employer’s names secret, a request that brought a sharp response from the state. The businesses were added to the suit to show that the new law could cause harm, attorneys said.

The county attorneys and the Attorney General filed a motion Friday asking U.S. District Court Judge Neil Wake to deny the business groups’ request to keep the names private.

“A strong presumption exists in favor of openness in court proceedings, including identification of parties and witnesses by their real names,” Attorney General Terry Goddard wrote in response to the request for secrecy. Anonymity is usually granted in cases where there is “highly sensitive” or private information, such as disputes involving abortion, mental illness, children, birth control and religion, he wrote. “Embarrassment or economic harm is not enough to justify anonymity,” he contended.

“The John Doe Members do not wish to invite prosecution of their businesses and themselves under federal law by identifying themselves in the state proceedings,” attorneys David Selden and Louis Moffa Jr. wrote in their request to keep the employer names confidential.

Judge Wake will consider the pleadings as he prepares for a Jan. 16 hearing on the merits of the sanctions law. Last week, Wake declined to block the law with a temporary restraining order, clearing the way for it to go into effect Tuesday.

The business and civil-rights groups fighting the law lost challenges earlier this month to block it.
