I'll be honest...I would very much enjoy the day that I see Hispanic people and not know whether they are illegal aliens or not and know that a significant percentage of them probably are illegal (given I'm in San Diego). As it is, there are a few dozen Hispanic people that hang out at the street corner by where I live, basically there to be picked up to do jobs for people. I've never gone up to talk to them or anything so I have no idea if they're legal or not, but what I'm saying is I'd love the day when I can actually assume they ARE legal because there'd be so few ILLEGAL immigrants. I'm sure police would love that day too. Unless something is done, that day isn't going to come. If Mexico could somehow fix the problem, that would be the best solution, but everyone knows they never will, so it's up to the US to fix it. The federal government clearly isn't bothered enough to fix it, so AZ is trying to do what is in their power to at least fix the issue for their state. It won't fix the national problem obviously because they'll spill over into other states, but that's not AZ's concern nor should it be. They are elected to look out for the state's best interests, and their best interest is to stop making all the low-lower middle class people poorer through paying for a bunch of people that shouldn't be here in the first place.

Yes, there's a slim chance that a legal Hispanic citizen gets profiled and stopped by police for some bullshit reason (which already happens to Hispanics, blacks, etc. as you know) and asked for their ID (which already would happen in those cases, only now they can ask for passport), and there's a slim chance after that AZ law going into effect that a legal Hispanic citizen there (who BTW is more than likely already well aware of the legal system having had to jump through many hoops to legally get in this country), would somehow not think to have their passport/ID on them, get arrested until they're found to be legal and then released. Then there's a slim chance that despite likely being aware that they should have been carrying their ID on them to prevent this situation, they sue.

There's also many circumstances in which doctors could face lawsuits for medical malpractice for suggesting a medical procedure that had a chance of failure and failed, and probably a bunch of other cases of such legal issues that people in many professions, companies, and the government all deal with. So should everyone just not do anything to solve problems in fear of possibility of lawsuits?

I understand the whole slippery slope argument against this, but I just don't know if this will cause any more racial profiling against Hispanics in AZ than what already exists, only now if they're found to be illegal, they'll get deported, and if they were legal and for whatever reason after a law is passed requiring them to carry ID they didn't, then they'll be detained until they're found to be legal and then released. I mean no innocent people have ever been detained for anything before this law passed...never!

As it is, I and everyone else have to carry my driver's license when I'm driving about. I've memorized the number and once a few years ago, I got stopped by a cop because my tags weren't up to date (was still waiting for them in the mail) and I didn't have my license but gave him my license #. Hey guess what? I got a ticket for not having my license on me! Young white male getting a ticket for not having ID even though I had proof of who I was and that I could legally drive...it happens!
