That's the thing though, bon... nobody is gonna stop someone here in AZ for the color of their skin. If the police did that (and mind you... we have a healthy Hispanic presence in our Police Force) they'd never get any work done. :)
The only time someone is going to be asked for their proof of citizenship is when they're pulled over or stopped on the street for something they may have done (if it's something as petty as a taillight is out... so-be-it).
Now... are there a few racist asshole cops on the force? Yep... will there be a few incidents that are truly racist and over-the-top? Yep. But Isn't that already the case w/out this law? YEP. :)
I have no clue what to do about that - it's a shitty fact that it will happen from time to time... but it's not going to be like some disgusting nazi 'papers please' approach that would more than likely end up with someone being murdered or thrown away for life simply for their race.
Something has got to be done - and it needs to happen on a Federal level... and QUICK... else - more states will begin adopting the same time of law AZ finally put in play... and that's shitty.
