My skin is white and I carry a passport in my back pack at all times. I guess I could be in the country illegally as a European, who knows. I still don’t mind showing someone my passport. I also think that if someone with brown skin should be searched so should I. No harm done here. I think the harm done is paying benefits to people who are in the U.S. illegally. States like CA have too many and too high taxes as it is. To me it’s all about preserving my assets and not giving it away to welfare recipients who don’t want to work.
Logical solution isn’t wholesale abuse of the Constitution. Solution is requiring proof of legal residence to conduct government business, including receiving benefits. Have a kid and you’re in the US illegally. Kid is a citizen, and is welcome back in the US when he’s 18 — till then, family gets deported.
Besides, most immigrants — legal or illegal — work like dogs, much harder than Americans. The immigrant welfare queen is mostly a racist myth.
