Mr Navarette’s problem is that he really opposes enforcement by anyone but knows that standard is so unpopular as to render all his opinions worthy of mockery. He might ask his father, the cop, if he would prefer not to know the description of a suspect. If I resembled a lawbreaker, it would not offend me to be investigated. I expect police to use all tools at their disposal including physical appearance to try to find criminals.
The specter of racial profiling is trotted out as if the Klan were still lurking in every PD. If Hispanic or Mexican-American legal residents of the US ( both citizen and legal immigrant ) want to reduce being suspected of being illegals, let them begin to cooperate with border enforcement. The current level of cooperation is about where it has been historically, close to zero. The Democratic Party has continually promoted racial and ethnic loyalty and push the idea that Americans who belong to certain groups ( Blacks, Hispanics and the ethnicity of the month ) consider themselves to more (hyphen) Americans than Americans.
Question to Mr. Navarette: if you knew that an illegal lived next door to you, would you turn them in?
