Or... right now it takes 2-3 hours for a Cop to process an illegal - that wait time can be waiting for BP alone taking the Cop off duty the entire time. New law allows them to process them like any other Criminal - about 1 hour.
We have laws to protect from racial profiling in the bill, state laws, and fed level. Cops have had extreme training on racial profiling. Cops have been given the power to do this directly from the Fed before, and training was offered then as well - many AZ police departments took the training - which was said to be no different than the State training - and nobody screamed about then.
Thinking this is about race is silly.. When a huge percentage of the people that drafted the Bill and support the bill are a hugely Latino. It's not like a bunch of White people made this bill - they would or could never do that in current times.

could or would? the state just did
frankly this isn't so much about specifics and reasons and examples. This is about principle and creating precedents for the future. it isn't about the cops of today going to school for training, it's about the cops of tomorrow feeling justified and comfortable with racial/social profiling and arrest
