Dunphy's Take


Jack Dunphy is the alias of an LA cop who occasionally opines something for the knuckle dragging rag, The National Review. Here's a bit of common sense cop logic as it applies to the controversial Arizona law regarding illegals:

Here's a guess: if President Obama had proposed something along the lines of what Arizona did, there would be some desultory protests from the Phoenix ACLU chapter and some Unitarian congregations here and there but it would be largely glossed over by the press as a "pragmatic" measure to address a gnawing problem. The NYT would have said something along the lines of Obama willing to enact "bold" ideas and think outside the box, something his unimaginative predecessor did not have the proper education to accomplish.
