The many legal latino citizens of the state who fear that this will lead to a lot of unnecessary harassment because of their skin color aren't real happy either.
I was listening to talk radio the other day and somebody called in and said something funny about the proposed legislation.
They wondered if the notion of profiling could be extended? The example that cracked me up was the possibility of now allowing cops to stop cars with confederate flag decals on their bumper because there was sufficient cause to assume that the occupants were probably drunk or had an unlicensed firearm in the glovebox? Or stop every car with a Ron Paul sticker, on the grounds that the passengers are most probably seditious, non federal income tax paying members of some militant militia. Opens up a whole new area of possibilities. Love this picture of a redneck thanksgiving.

police state, anyone? i know illegal immigration is a problem, but this is a terrible idea; no wonder even the cops are against it...enjoyed your gastronomic post; eating well is the best revenge...i guess i'd forgotten that "One" was a Nillson song; i liked Three Dog Night's version ok, but his beats it by a mile...good luck, sell lots...
Well, I see now that profiling has it's place. What a great image...all those bumper-stickered cars all lined up, being searched by the police. Almost as good an image as the "red neck Thanksgiving".
It was signed today by the AZ Guv!!! I predict it will be promptly shot down by a Fed court.
