Yesterday I urged all Americans to boycott the State of Arizona until this law is appealed. This law is unjust. It will only lead to the increase of racial profiling and hate crimes in the State, especially towards Hispanics. This is a violation of the fourth and 14th amendment in the United States Constitution. It does not require local police officers to have a warrant. This new law will create a divide between people who are asked for legal documents and those who are not. This law will create distrust between police and the communities they protect. This law is backwards, and sets us back in time. I urge Americans show their support of the boycott and wear a red, yellow, and blue wristband. This is an unjust law and must be overturned, and an example of why we need comprehensive immigration reform.
