Racial profiling can easily be avoided by requiring everyone in Arizona to form a big line and present their papers to the police, but even if 100% of Mexican border-crossers are arrested and jailed, they will only be later released to the feds, and recross later, probably with better fake IDs, so why cheer over an expensive grudge-making merry-go-round? On the other hand, why protest against the govt. of Arizona or the U.S. while ignoring the Invisible Man across the border, the incurably corrupt racist Mexican govt. that keeps the rich on the backs of the poor and causes them to cross the border despite all obstacles placed in their way? Any real solution will start with dissolving that govt. in favor of forming several new U.S. state govts. Google "Megamerge Dissolution Solution".
