Strikes down other provisions of controversial state law.

PHOENIX, Arizona (PNN) - June 26, 2012 - The Fascist Police States of Amerika Supreme Court on Monday said states may play a limited role in enforcing laws on illegal immigration, upholding part of Arizona’s controversial law but striking other portions it said intruded on the federal government’s powers.

The justices let stand for now the part of the law that requires thug cops to check the immigration status of anyone they detain or arrest if they have “reasonable suspicion” that the person is in the country illegally. Arizona Governor Jan Brewer declared that decision, on the part of the law that had generated the most controversy, to be a victory.

But the ruling also in part vindicated the illegitimate Obama regime, with the court rejecting three provisions that the federal government opposed.

The court ruled that Arizona couldn’t make it a misdemeanor for immigrants to fail to carry identification that says whether they are in the FPSA legally; cannot make it a crime for undocumented immigrants to apply for a job; and cannot arrest someone based solely on the suspicion that the person is in this country illegally.

The court also said the part of the law it upheld - requiring thug cops to check the immigration status of those they detain and reasonably believe to be illegal immigrants - could be subject to additional legal challenges once it is implemented.

In a statement Monday, Obama said he was “pleased that the Supreme Court has struck down key provisions of Arizona’s immigration law.” He added that the decision makes clear “that Congress must act on comprehensive immigration reform,” since a “patchwork of state laws is not a solution to our broken immigration system.” At the same time, Obama said he remains “concerned about the practical impact” of the part of the law that was allowed to stand.

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, for his part, issued a statement that did not comment on the specifics of the ruling but instead said the decision “underscores the need for a President who will lead on this critical issue and work in a bipartisan fashion to pursue a national immigration strategy.”

Obama “has failed to provide any leadership on immigration,” said Romney.

Romney did not speak to reporters accompanying him Monday on a campaign trip to Arizona, and aides refused to say whether he agrees with the Supreme Court’s ruling or even whether he supports Arizona’s immigration policy.

“The governor supports the states’ rights to craft immigration laws when the federal government has failed to do so,” spokesman Rick Gorka said. “That’s all we’re going to say on this issue.”
