The Virginia chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union says it's concerned about the Loudoun County sheriff's plan to check the immigration status of suspects.

Loudoun County Sheriff Stephen O. Simpson said Tuesday that he made an agreement with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to check the immigration status of people arrested in the county who are suspected of being in the country illegally.

Simpson says the program will start this summer. He says deputies won't check suspects only based on their ethnicity.

The ACLU said it has filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the sheriff's office, asking for records related to the program.

The ICE program aims to deport illegal immigrants convicted of serious felonies. It is also used in Prince William County, Manassas, Manassas Park and Herndon.

When was the last time the ACLU had concern for AMERICAN CITIZENS and not those who have entered this country in violation of immigration law!

The ACLU is merely an extension of la raza. In fact, it's almost criminal they continue to portray themselves as a group concerned with the civil liberties of American citizens when every agenda they pursue is in direct conflict with the values and overall well being of our citizens and this country.

To eliminate false accusations of 'racial profiling' everyone arrested could be asked illegal/legal/citizenship status--make it a question on the check-in sheet.

It is my contention no suspect can technically have a fair trial and no court of law can dispense true justice without knowing the citizenship/immigration status of the accused.

Thats what I have been saying....ASK EVERYONE!! RED, WHITE, BLUE, GREEN, BLACK OR BROWN...WITH DRIVERS LICENSE OR WITHOUT! EVERYONE....
