The law prohibits requesting ID based on someone looking "hispanic." It will not happen. The law was ammended to not allow it.

The above poster is correct. The race of a person committing a crime may be taken into consideration per the law, but that is not racially profiling. If the border is with mexico, it goes logically that most of the violators will be hispanic. That is not racially profiling - it is recognizing the facts of the cirmstances. This has been upheld in the supreme court. Racially profiling is targeting someone because of race.
It gets old hearing everyon screaming about racial profiling on so many issues when it is not happening. Those people clearly know jack about the law.

MMM, do you live in a border state where the damage is being done? I don't think so, but of course I could be wrong. Trust me. People don't all come here to work.
earlier you said we should target businesses who hire illegals. But that targets those who come to work. To catch the gang members, drug runners, human smugglers and general criminals, this law allows that to happen.
