Our local organ, the Marietta Daily Urinal headline was that SCOTUS vacated majority of the law which was directly from the AP. On the bottom they had a local article article quoting Georgia GOP reps saying the ruling was very positive because it allowed the most important aspect to be retained.

No doubt this was a split decision and a somewhat strange one from my amateur perspective. It is mystifying that the court would say a state is violating federal law by trying to enforce federal law. It doesn't get any stranger than that, unless you have the 9th Circus of Appeals court in which case anything can happen.

Either way, Arizona can now implement the checking of the immigration status of individuals they stop and when they actually apply the law that will trigger the next round of lawsuits. These will be about racial profiling.
