DALIAN asked:

If a defense attorney proves beyond a doubt that a wife lied to a jury about her husband hitting her a year earlier would the jury have doubts about her saying she was hit again a year later? There is no pysical evidence, bruises, marks, etc. to support her charge. Does lying about the first time make the second time less believable?

Most Popular Change Type Size Cave Creek sued over law targeting day laborers
Associated Press
Mar. 25, 2008 02:10 PM

Three day laborers filed a lawsuit Tuesday that seeks to overturn a suburb’s law prohibiting people standing on public streets from soliciting employment from occupants of cars.

The federal lawsuit alleges Cave Creek’s law passed is unconstitutional because it restricts the free speech rights of people trying to find work as day laborers.

“Cave Creek does not have the right to pick and choose who has free speech rights,” said Monica Ramirez, an attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union, one of the group’s representing the day laborers. “The town cannot bar people from peaceably standing in public areas and expressing their availability to work.”

Mayor Vincent Francia said the law was a response to concerns raised by residents over traffic being impeded by people congregating on street corners.

“The ordinance applies to everyone. It is not specific to any group,” Francia said. “I have to obey it.”

The environment for day laborers in Arizona has grown tougher in recent years.

Advocates for and against day labor have regularly held competing protests.

Nearly three years ago, the Legislature and governor approved a law barring local governments from putting taxpayer money into day labor centers that help illegal immigrants find work.

The Legislature approved a proposal last year that would have made it a trespassing offense for day laborers to seek work on public streets and sidewalks. Gov. Janet Napolitano vetoed the bill, saying she recognizes the need to confront illegal hirings, but that the proposal was discriminatory.

The Cave Creek Town Council passed its work solicitation law in September. Days later, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, whose office provides police protection for Cave Creek, had officers respond to complaints that illegal immigrants were creating public safety problems near a day labor center.

Arpaio’s office is noted for its efforts to crack down on illegal immigration.

The Guatemalan and two Mexicans who filed the lawsuit are in the United States legally and, as day laborers, have earned money as painters, gardeners and construction workers, Ramirez said.
All of the taxpaying citizens need to band together and DEMAND that our tax dollars no longer go to fund these racist groups such as the ACLU!!!!!

I am just being nosey i guess, but still wondering.
