The first of what will likely be many lawsuits against AZ SB 1070 hit court on Thursday. This one filed by Phoenix police Officer David Salgado, who says the law will force him to racially profile even though the law makes racial profiling illegal, and the non-profit group Chicanos Por La Causa, a self described progressive community based organization (gee, doesn't that sound familiar?) which says it will harm the children who may not produce proof of legal presence fast enough. That's right, the big mean horrible state of Arizona is in the habit of deporting children without bothering to contact their parents.
