“but I’ll gladly stop at a few checkpoints if it means we’re finally cracking down on illegals”
If they were, I’d agree with you, but this had nothing to do with illegal aliens.

Did you mention illegals???....
“Closure of Border Patrol Stations Across Four States Triggers Alarm”
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2905356/posts
“The Obama administration is moving to shut down nine Border Patrol stations across four states, triggering a backlash from local law enforcement, members of Congress and Border Patrol agents themselves. “
These checkpoints are horrible. The guy was held up for 30 minutes in traffic to ask whether he was illegal... twice in one day! (Same checkpoint?) I assumed that the Arizona laws that were passed were to check the illegal status of people who were lawfully stopped and suspected of a crime...
I might be quoting the ACLU, but enough is enough.. If stopped, ask: Why was I stopped, am I being detained, am I free to go.... politely refuse to be searched without cause.
By the way, this guy appears to be a good, God-fearing Christian HERO.
