Is anyone here worried about the possibility of police officers using "suspected illegal immigrant" profiling to unjustly pull over citizens?
As it currently stands in the U.S., a citizen is mostly protected from frivolous stops if that person is doing nothing wrong either on the road or as a pedestrian or otherwise. Profiling citizens based on a suspicion that only has to be justified in the mind of the enacting officer is, to put it mildly, a concern.
I can see this new power spilling over into areas that do not warrant it, and there's not much that can keep that from happening.
But, I'm not sure of all the details... so if someone has any insight into that particular aspect, I'd be interested in hearing it.
