Racist police alert.
I’ve never been disturbed by profiling. It’s how the police limit their suspect pools. Most ‘serial killers’ are white men. Most terrorist are Muslim. Most gang members are black or Hispanic. Most white collar crime is committed by 50 something white dudes. Most prostitutes are women. Most illegal aliens are Mexican. None of this upsets me. In fact, if the police didn’t ‘profile’ they’d be stupid idiots and wasting a lot of time.
The police should never pull folks over for ‘looking Mexican’. But, if the police have a reasonable reason to be talking to you and you’re not a citizen, than too damn bad. If I was wondering around the country of Germany or Japan or Mexico for that matter with no official status, I’d expect the exact same treatment from the police. This is common sense.
Arizona should simply state that they are enforcing the very same laws that Mexico has on its books. Case closed....until the feds actually do their job!!
