Again "white people" could or would not make this bill - the Majority are Latino that drafted it. If we didn't have that majority, white people would have said No thinking they would have been accused of being a racist.
That's why saying the bill is racist... is just silly.
Why would racial profiling be allowed more later than now or be any different? If anything, laws will make racial profiling even more harsh than they already are, which has been happening.
With the new bill, before State and Federal laws, if a Cop racial profiles - himself and the department can be directly sued, funds cut, jobs lost and even criminal charges pressed - that's before the State and Fed come down on you.
This entire racial profile arguement is just stupid... if you're illegal and they "profile" you, it's not Racial. It's Racial when they ID you when you're sitting at the buss stop - which Border Patrol can do already.. but Cops can't do even with the new law.
