So the big news this week is that Arizona has this new law regarding immigrants, right? I'm not paying a lot of attention, but I think that's what they're all talking about on NPR. The past couple of days an Indiana politician has mentioned he likes the Arizona law, and maybe he'll try to get a similar law passed here. I've not done too much research on the issue, but upon hearing this proposal by the Indiana politician my thoughts were, 'hmmm, this seems like a bigger issue for Arizona, which shares a huge border with Mexico, than Indiana, which shares a huge border with Illinois.' Guess I was wrong, because I saw this truck in the parking lot at Walmart today.
Can you read that? It says 'border volunteers.' After living in Texas and Nevada for the past several years, where I had to speak MRI Spanish on a regular basis, I guess I underestimated the need for border patrol and legislation in my home state.You can tell this truck is for use around here, because the camo color scheme is Midwest.
