    I feel that they have to interrogate people even if they don't suspect them of being illegal. If they only target Hispanics they will be labled as racist and that they are racialy profiling. This way they can't be acused of this act. I am tired of people bending over backwards to placate people who do not want to become citizens, but just want to take advantage of our social services. They complain about spliting up families, but many of them are here and sending money back home to their families. So they are already split up. If we had the $65 million dollars spent here, it sure would help our ecomony.
