I guess the point is not that the bill introduced in Georgia is an eliminationist bill, but rather a further small step in racist policy of moving to impinge on the civil rights of predominantly one racial group in Georgia. The Nazis did not begin by wiping out the Jews either. They also took small steps that continued to escalate until Jews were being killed by 1941 after the invasion of the Soviet Union provided a convenient smokescreen. But small steps like the Arizona bill and the Georgia bill, and all the others proposed, were exactly what got the ball rolling.

Also, you would probably be singing a different tune if it were you who was the target of this bill. If it were to pass, I would be breaking the law daily (even though I am citizen), by living with my fiancee or driving her to the store, or telling her I want to marry her (isn't that "encouraging" an "illegal" to come or stay in Georgia).

Finally, before you accuse me of playing the race card, come to Georgia during the next election season. The blatant racist rhetoric against Mexicans that our wonderful governor Nathan Deal used against Roy Barnes--without concerning himself that he was outright lying--was disgusting and something I would have never believed could happen in America before I came here. But then again, Georgia only got rid of the Confederate flag as the state flag ten years ago--and then only because they were going to lose a major lawsuit, which forced its Republican supporters to yank the flag in a midnight session.
