Obama has no clue what the bill actually says and is doing this for political reasons of building his base.

I suport the law, but I have a question: Can the police stop over anyone suspected of being an illegal or could they only ask for immigration papers once they arrest someone for a separate crime?

They have to be arrested for a crime.

That's a lie...or rather, an "untruth".

I have only one problem with this bill:  Article 8; Subsection E

Probable cause.  That's all they need.  What is the evidence of the public offense (illegal immigration)?  Skin color.

My grandfather was born in Puerto Rico.  He's an obvious latino, but has been a United States citizen his entire life.  Let me ask; who has more probable cause:  a man born in Puerto Rico who appears to be Mexican or a white person?  This law grants a law enforcement officer the right to arrest my grandfather without a warrant because he has probable cause to believe my grandfather is an illegal immigrant and he doesn't have his ID.

It's ridiculous, it's unconstitutional, and it bothers me.
