It's not racist. It's not evil.
This is a non-arguement.
Unless you just ask brown skin people and you racially profile people to fit into the illegal activity. And it's a real argument.
Who on earth said that 'they' will "just ask brown skin people"? As I stated earlier, there will not be some huge influx of law enforcement personnel in AZ that can just go up to every Juan, Haysus, and Jorge and try to bust them. If any are speeding, running red lights, robbing, killing, selling drugs, have accidents and don't have car insurance, they can be arrested.
As others have stated, there is precious little that one can do in this life without showing at least one form of identification. If you are in this country legally, you MUST carry your green card with you at all times, so how is that so much different?
I think if we in Muscatine were living with the conditions that they are experiencing in AZ and TX with all the drug wars, murders and mayhem that is occurring, we would be camped on the govs door demanding action.
