Hispanics fear that racial profiling will be the result of Arizona Governor Jen Brewer's immigration reform bill, which makes it against the law to be in Arizona illegally. The bill also requires that state police question immigration status and ask reasonably suspicious people to provide identification.
Mexicans and Central Americans make up 14% of Arizona's population of seven million. The bill's goal is to identify those having no business being in Arizona. It also attempts to protect residents of the state from burgeoning gun violence as well as the increasing drug cartel and gang activity spilling over from Mexico onto Arizona's streets.

Failing to sufficiently appreciate all the hard work Obama's done to secure U.S. borders (which amounts to zero), Arizona enacted a law last week allowing police to check the immigration status of the hordes of illegal invaders in Arizona. Or, to borrow MSM lingo regarding the passage of ObamaCare, Arizona last week SUCCESSFULLY enacted a SWEEPING and HISTORIC and TRANSFORMATIVE and AMBITIOUS measure that Americans have long demanded -- otherwise known as "police work". As a bonus, it doesn't cost a $1 trillion.
In response, renowned immigration expert Barack Obama accused Arizona of 'recklessly' defending itself. He complained that efforts by the Arizona legislature to enact a bill that upholds U.S. law on illegal 'immigration' "threatens to undermine basic notions of fairness." He determined this absent the basic notion of actually reading the bill.
Obama's basic notion of fairness lovingly consists of getting murdered in cold blood on your own property by Mexico-based drug traffickers. Arizona rancher Robert Krentz was recently shot and killed on his own ranch by illegal alien criminals pursuing Obama's basic notion of fairness. (In a mysterious break with past practice, Janet Napolitano didn't immediately say 'the system worked.')
Liberals have been stomping their feet hysterically for weeks because states like Arizona aren't meekly surrendering to ObamaCare. Now libbies are hysterical because Arizona is upholding U.S. law. Just when you think they would say thank you.
Libbies wailing that Arizona is 'usurping' federal law in dealing with the state's 500,000 illegal aliens heap praise on the 'brave' and 'noble' "Sanctuary cities" because they're violating federal law.
In fairness, left-wingers do make exceptions to their love for porous borders. In fact, they can be amazingly pro-enforcement of certain borders -- such as the borders of East Germany during the Cold War, to take just one example off the top of my head. Why, left-winger Erich Honecker was big on border control! East Germans trying to cross over to join the ruthless capitalist hell-hole on the other side were routinely shot and killed by darling East German community organizers, or "border guards." When the Left builds walls and barb wire fences along a border, it's to keep people from escaping their 'superior health care' system and 156% literacy rates.
Just before they decisively lost the Cold War, American liberals warned that the fall of their beloved Berlin Wall and the reunification of Germany would magically turn all Germans into Nazis. West Germans weren't sufficiently "de-Nazified" according to liberals, so reunification could mean polluting East German minds with the sick and twisted ideas of private property and "business". Liberals were all in favor of border enforcement then, especially a booby-trapped, barb wired, mine-laced artificial border erected by the 'heroic' East Germans and Soviets. Twenty years later, the closest thing to Hitler isn't Angela Merkel but Ahmadinejad, whom Obama can't suck up enough to.
And, to pick another random example of liberals favoring border control (when it's convenient) -- Cuba. Liberals applauded wildly when Janet Reno saved America from the grave threat of Elian Gonzalez. Interestingly, after the threat was successfully repelled and the little 'reactionary' monster was shipped back to Cuba at gunpoint, we didn't hear the usual babble from liberals about the 'dangers' and 'risks' of 'alienating' the 'Hispanic vote'.
Historically, since most Cubans who fled Castro's 'world-class' socialist achievement have the sense to become Republicans seconds after attaining citizenship, liberals demand strict limits on how many Cubans are allowed to immigrate here, with the goal being zero. If Cuban-Americans were a Democrat voter bloc, Elian wouldn't have been deported.
It all boils down to voter profiling. Liberals have the hots for illegal Mexican and Central American 'immigration' since most eventually vote Democrat upon becoming citizens. With Cuba, liberals demand enforcement of the 'wet feet, dry feet' policy. Libbies howl that in Arizona a speeding van loaded with human 'cargo' and having an expired tag could now arouse 'reasonable suspicion' that something illegal might be happening, yet liberals vigorously chase a little boy back to Cuba because he wasn't a drug trafficker. There's hypocrisy in there somewhere.
Anyway, that's...

"JohnHuang2" <-- a legal Hispanic who says America could use more Jan Brewers
Yet he begrudges us our own safety.
The boy-king of Kenya with contempt for our Constitution and its preamble requiring him to provide for the common defense.
With the Narcissist from Nairobi, justice is "just us."
Why do they come to America? You look at every place they go, they destroy. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t care what color you are just as long as you love America and know that this is the greatest country on earth. But, that’s a big But, it is being destroyed by what my tag line says.
“Why do they come to America? “
There should be one big overriding reason why people come here. It should be because they appreciate our system of government and the opportunities it gives individuals to make their own way. They should come here wanting to become Americans, and to assimilate. Unfortunately, some just want to infiltrate, not assimilate.
I have heard people from other countries tell me they were about to become American citizens and that they were ‘kind of embarrassed’ about it, because now they would have to travel with an American passport. There is something very wrong with that.
They are just trying to turn Hispanics in to the new Victim Class..
I believe Hispanic officers are the majority of th force in some Arizona cities...ate THEY afraid of racial profiling?
Just wondering: Is there any other nation on earth where you’ll find bumper stickers that shout “One Planet, One People”? Are “they” all coming here because we’re the only country that spouts this socialist crap? Yeah, we’re all in “it” together, but when I see these stickers they might as well say “what’s yours is mine, what’s left of mine is yours”. THEY’VE been coming to America for the liberal hand-outs. Now, we have the Pied Piper and his rats in DC spouting his HOPEY CHANGEY socialist sludge. Would be interesting to know if the number of illegals entering the US goes up when the liberals are in charge.
Depending on the study, there are approximately 12-20 million illegal aliens inside our borders today.
Of that number, 99%+ are hispanic in origin.
How can any action against them be called profiling?!

We have a winner!
They should of put a bounty on them. Dog could get rich.

IF they were allowed to TRICKLE in,
and not form their own cultural enclaves,
but be forced of necessity to adopt OUR culture,
they’d be a great asset to our country. People with good values and work ethics always are an asset.
You certainly can't, but you can ensure yourself a cushy job and lots of power at the expense of those ambitious, prosperous souls.
Fixing the problem would mean the end of the gig. Hence the constant disinformation campaign about the true causes of inequality.
I hereby volunteer as a redhead to be “profiled” three times a day, provided the restrictions come off the profiling of perceived illegals in exchange.
which makes it against the law to be in Arizona illegally
Is that like double secret probation?
Ping!
All redheads are probably illegal irish aliens!
Demand to see their papers and deport them!
I profile red headed or ginger 24-34 yo single women all the time. It’s called dating.
