So the truck driver got "racially profiled."

To be precise, the truck driver claimed he got racially profiled. We only heard his description of what happened. The ICE spokesperson said "this was standard operating procedure....this has nothing to do with the proposed bill or racial profiling". I'm sure though our resident leftists can read between the lines and see the racism in her heart...


When did it become SOP for a cop to stop a truck driver at a weighing station and ask him for his birth certificate......and then take him down to Immigration when he can only produce his driver's license and some trucking documentation? And you call me irrational. Really?

Elmer, > To be precise, the truck driver claimed he got racially profiled.

He wouldn't be making that claim if it weren't for all the handwringing over racial profiling.

He just wants attention, sympathy, and maybe a six-digit settlement from the government. Just Google Tennie Pierce, who got $1.4 million from L.A. by playing the race card.
