Again, this is government sponsored harassment of people at the expense of the rights of legal citizens.

Do we really support the discrimination and loss of more rights by legal citizens?
To you're first question, no. The fact is most illegals in that section of the nation are from south of the border. It is just a fact. An unfortunate fact for legal immigrants south of the border.

The fact is it is a federal law already on the books having to provide their green card or proof of citizenship that the state is now empowering their law enforcement to do only after being stopped for a primary offense AND if they meet certain criteria, none of which is race. People meeting such criteria disclosed in the bill, would be "carded" , regardless of race.

Again no different than any country as far as asking for ID, <cough> Japan, but a lot more liberal.

What rights are we losing?
