Republican Arizona Governor Jan Brewer Friday signed into law a new state immigration bill, entitled the "Support Our Law Enforcement and Safe Neighborhood Act," saying that the state had been "more than patient waiting for Washington to act." Gov. Brewer added that the bill would protect Arizona citizens without violating individuals constitutional rights.

The sweeping legislation makes it a crime under state law to be in the country illegally. It also requires local police to question people about their immigration status if there is reason to suspect they are here illegally, even if that suspicion is based on the color of their skin and nothing else.

Immigrants unable to produce documents showing they are allowed to be in the United States could be arrested, jailed up to six months, and fined $2,500.

This is a bad idea on many levels. What does one look like who is here illegally? Brown skin? What happens if they stop someone with brown skin and he is here legally but has some type of contraband on him? Legal stop? What if you left your wallet at home?? What if? What if?
