Ted, > How would you feel if you were stopped? I know how I would feel.

I would consider it an inconvenience.

If I didn't have documentation on me (e.g. the officer didn't think my driver's license was proof), then I'd probably be hauled away until they can verify my legal residence. That's when the law will go too far, since we live in a society where people don't feel like having to carry ID all the time. (Except when they're driving, but driving is a privilege, not a right.)

I'm not saying there are no problems with the AZ law, though. But I am saying that the race card is being played way too much. It's a play on emotion, and it divides people needlessly. Not only that, but it cheapen the whole race issue to that of a talking point.
