All of you crying 'racist' and 'racial profiling', take off your blinders!!! Have you ever heard the quote "If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, looks like a duck, it must be a duck." This will not lead to 'racial profiling', it will simply lead to 'profiling'.
FACT: Most of the illegal immigrants in Arizona and throughout the south are of Mexican or some other Hispanic ethnicity. Go ahead, scream racism all you want, but this is a FACT. If you don't agree, provide something that proves me wrong.
So with this fact in mind, who do you think should be the focus of an illegal immigration crackdown?
To put it to you another way, who is known to try and highjack commercial airplanes and fly them into buildings, based on events in the not-to-distant past? If you guessed Muslim extremists, you're right! So in trying to vamp up airport security (which we did) to assure that this doesn't happen again (which it hasn't), who should those placed in charge of airline security place the most attention upon? Should they wast time any EXTRA resources making sure that the 80 year old white lady with the wheelchair doesn't have an explosive device shoved up her ass? Of course not; they should focus on those that FIT THE PROFILE! The fact that those who fit the profile are of a particular race has nothing to do with it; the fact that they do in fact fit the profile of someone who has blown up a plane in the past has EVERYTHING to do with it!
We seem to get so caught up in the political correctness of it all that we lose site of the issue here: immigration law enforcement. If someone is in this country legally, they should have no problem proving it; Mexican American or otherwise! The fact of the matter is that most illegal immigrants are in fact of Hispanic origin; therefore, one of the major characteristics, if you were making a 'profile' of the typical illegal immigrant, would be that they are Hispanic. Why is it so difficult that for most people to grasp this?!?
