What happens when a reporter asks a Democratic Congressman whether he is willing to enforce the border against the trafficking of illegal drugs? The congressman walks away disdainfully and calls the reporter a name, of course.
Rep. Raul Grijalva (D, Ariz.) participated in a grandstanding press conference called by Democratic politicians in Arizona to protest the new law, which allows law enforcement to ask for proof of legal status when they lawfully encounter a person and they have reasonable suspicion that the person might be in the country illegally. After the press conference, a reporter from CNSnews.com asks Rep. Grijalva: “Are you committed to sealing the border against the influx of illegal drugs?”
It should be noted that Rep. Grijalva’s district includes 300 miles of the US/Mexican border. For Grijalva to ask “What does this have to do with our press conference today?” in relation to the reporter’s question about drug trafficking, we’re forced to wonder if Rep. Grijalva actually understands the law he is protesting.
