LATINO ACTIVISTS WANT TO PROMOTE ILLEGAL ENTRY INTO U.S.A.

LATINO ACTIVISTS CALL ON SHERIFF JOE TO RESIGN
 
Latino activists gathered on Monday calling for Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio to resign from his post and for his deputies to stop their alleged racial profiling of Hispanics in the state. The activists heralded a court ruling made the previous week that bars Arpaio’s deputies from detaining suspected illegal immigrants with no other reason.

Proponents of illegal immigration praised the ruling as a confirmation that officers are not authorized to pull anyone over if they think they are an undocumented immigrant. According to Antonio Bustamente, a civil-rights attorney and director of Los Abogados, Arizona’s Hispanic Bar Association, “Mere presence is not a crime.”
