The new Arizona law would not have allowed Arizona to deport anyone for simply being an illegal immigrant...the law simply made it a state law...vs a federal law...to be an illegal immigrant and would have given the state the power to arrest/convict and hold the illegal in jail...but not to deport...as only the feds have the power to deport.
sheriff is clever!

"The first thing you need to address if you?re an immigrant with a criminal record is whether or not you?re an illegal or legal immigrant. Generally, if a person has come into the US illegally, they are typically prohibited from applying for US citizenship on this ground alone and may also be subject to deportation. The reason is because illegal immigrants have not only violated US law by coming into the country without authorization, but they?ve also cut in line in front of all those immigrants who have applied for residency through the normal legal immigration process. This process is important to the US because it gives the government a chance to vet all potential immigrants prior to being allowed entry. Though its possible for ICE to choose not to deport an illegal immigrant, such decisions happen very rarely and usually only in extraordinary cases."
