Breaking news: Judge Thrash just issued an injunction against the governor of Georgia to stop some of HB87's provisions from being implemented as unconstitutional. Most importantly, police will NOT be able to check for immigration documents come July 1 and the harboring provision is also blocked as unconstitutional.
I will blog in more detail tomorrow or Wednesday after I have a chance to read the judge Thrash's decision in full but here is one beautiful quote: The state's "... claim that the new criminal statutes will prevent exploitation of illegal aliens is gross hypocrisy. The apparent legislative intent is to create such a climate of hostility, fear, mistrust, and insecurity that all illegal aliens will leave Georgia”.
