Mike,
Glad you had your camera with you. This is a classic and I'm reblogging it. :)

Karen Anne,
Embarrassment? How do you figure? This law does nothing more than enforce a law already on the books in all 50 states, including Texas. It's a national law that Obama and Holder have chosen to ignore. :)

Hey, the owner of that vehicle may be a bouncer in a nightclub or a liquor store owner - or a psych major at a local U embracing Freud's psyche structure - ya nevah know (giggle)
Mike - you get the most awesome pics.
Classic, someone has a sense of humor. Great shot, Were you texting and on your cell phone when you saw it?
Mike,
As your fellow Tucson resident, I love this plate! I'm sure you know that our new law simply mirrors the Federal Law, you know, the one the Feds don't enforce!
I agree sir we do need to uphold the law that is already on the books and stop dancing around with our eyes covered.
Good shot, Mike.
Just read two different articles saying thousands of illegals, and some legal Hispanics, are planning to leave the state. Funny thing is they are not planning to go back to Mexico. They are headed for states where they are welcome.
All those who feel we are such terrible people here in Arizona, welcome your new residents.
Hi Mike,
Woo Hoo Mike, Great little post there. I can see that it almost started a stir but the sentiment seems to be clearly with you.
You always make us think Mike...Thanks and God Bless Arizona, Please !!! John from Benson
All,
"The executive branch of government has hindered [the country's] development by inadequately executing the core tasks of government and by consuming a large share of national resources. A primary cause of the poor performance in core tasks and high cost of government has been the overambitious role assigned to government. The scope of the government’s activities has gone well beyond that which is generally considered to be a government’s purview. The executive is overextended, trying to do too much with too little capability. As a result, it functions at a low level of effectiveness in most of its tasks."
from an Inter-American Development Bank White Paper on Governance in Suriname.
I was raised during my formative pre-teen to mid-teens years in Suriname, a postage-stamp-size country on the northern coast of South America.
Over the decades since I returned to the United States, I've watched Suriname's decline because of corruption, defined as "The abuse of public power for private gain" (World Bank, 1997).
I never thought it could happen here. It will, though, if we pick and choose which laws we like based on who is in power.

Funny... I live in Arizona and I couldn't figure out what the license plate said...
I first read, "I'd Please", as in being altruistic, or giving, or just a nice person...
Maybe what Steven Covey said IS true... You don't see the world as it is, you see the world as you are.
Mike,
This is a very difficult and controversial subject. I am sure this license plate will get a warm or cold reception based on people's opinion on the subject. Some will love it and others won't. I know that there are out less controversial topics out there to chose to have for license plates. Nice to see someone other than myself, taking a picture of a license plate to share here on AR. :)
Mike.. Glad to see you blogged this. I'm respect the person that has this license plate, and the state of Arizona.
Whether or not people agree with the message on the plate, we should all feel proud that we live in a country where this owner is free to express themselves.
@Jon Clark, About all I can say is this, one day this will affect you directly, and you will likely have an attitude shift. Does that mean you won't be a nice person anymore?
Talk about Rainmakers! Jeez. This is a great post and GREATER comments. I really liked Karen Anne Stone's response. It's easy to take sides with a majority. (although in this case I SINCERELY do)
MORNING MIKE! Well, I grew up overseas - had to carry ID and credentials around with me everywhere I went to prove I was a US citizen. If I did not have my cards - I paid the price and then had to get it right. Just do what's right and there is nothing to worry or complain about. I like the plate - nice to see flexibility at DMV! -- Gab
It seems to me that a lot of folks here in California, on both sides of the issue, have never actually read the text of SB1070.
But, anyway, one of my friends made a joke that I thought was funny enough to pass along:
If an officer asks you for "Papers", and you reply "Scissors", do you win? :-)
P.S. I can't speak for the rest of the country, but any time a officer has ever pulled me over for any minor infraction (like coasting thru a stop sign :-) ) The officer usually always starts the conversation by saying "ID, please."
Interesting photo - After living in Europe for 17 years where you had to register with the police every time you moved from one apartment to the next, I find this entire situation interesting to say the least.
Yes, AZ does get alot of publicity these days on immigration. It has to start comewhere....might as well be AZ!
