Hey, just pretend they're pulling over people and checking for proof they've purchased health insurance. Surely we can agree that such heinous criminals as the uninsured deserve to be deported!

Except that it doesn't involve police officers picking people up off the street based on the color of their skin...

Neither does this! Oh, snap!

If you're going to complain about a law, it helps to be aware of what it actually says and does. I guess "the other side = Nazis" isn't just for teabaggers anymore... not that it ever was.

Given the way police tend to act already, a law like this is just asking for trouble. In an environment with 100% police competence and professionalism, this law could work, but unfortunately this is not the case. The governor's executive order to make sure police are properly trained will help, but when the primary motive of the law is "figure out of those guys are illegals or not" it's just not going to end well.
