Immigration has always been a sensitive yet vital topic. Espicially when you can relate to it the way i do. AS a Mexican American living in the U.S. it seems to be that I am a target of many, sometimes too prideful, Americans. With the new law in Arizona declaring a policemen can demand legal documents from any "suspicious" person. This will grant many policemen to legally discriminate, due to this, this new law is considered "The New Jim Crow Law" by www.aclu.org.

As Some may consider it as only propaganda, there is a great possibility of it. The new law will create racial profiling, such as the events post 9/11. "...People in Arizona will be forced to 'show their papers' simply for looking or sounding 'foreign'. These draconian police tactics are more than just offensive and discriminatory-they're unconstitutional" (Murphy NP). This law will give new birth to the controversial Jim Crow laws, although not as extreme, it will legalize racial profiling.
