Missouri and Virginia have their own Arizona SB 1070 immigration laws

There is something very confusing here about all the fuss of Arizona's SB 1070 immigration law.
First one of our contributors M.K. brought to our attention that Missouri has had the same law for five years now but M.K. also tells us that Virginia has also had the same immigration law for three years. In Virginia if a police officer stops someone for any crime it is mandatory that the officer check immigration status automatically.
As you can see in the below video there have been very little problems with the effects of the law.
Since the law has been implemented in Virginia here are some of the positive results: a 38% reduction in violent crimes, fewer uninsured illegals giving birth, a drop in English as second language enrollment, and 80%of citizens favor law.
We keep asking why Arizona is not allowed to have its immigration laws, when we now know that Missouri and Virginia have had their identical immigration laws for 3 to 5 years now ? Why is Arizona going to get sued in hopes of preventing the state from implementing its immigration law when Missouri and Virginia have had identical laws for years. How very odd indeed!

Yes, it is very odd, since suing Arizona could be construed as a violation of the 11th Amendment:
The Judicial power of the United States shall not be construed to extend to any suit in law or equity, commenced or prosecuted against one of the United States by Citizens of another State, or by Citizens or Subjects of any Foreign State.

Sounds too like another court case on Obama's citizenship status would be in order.
