Grab a shovel and dig this! I was perusing the Constitution today and it seems the founders thought it was a good idea to allow states to protect themselves, at least that's how I read it! Article IV, Section 4 states: "the United States shall guarantee to every state in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence."
Drug smugglers are setting up snipers on the border to protect drug-runners. Phoenix now ranks number 3 in the world for kidnappings. Ranchers are being killed on their own property by illegals. Sounds like an Invasion to me!
My reading of this article, the Government has failed in its duty to protect this state. They are well within their right to protect themselves in that absence. As well as all the other states on the border.
If the DOJ can use the Supremacy clause to fight against the Arizona law, Arizona can use this to show the Governments failure on this issue!
