POPSNew Berkeley Law Study Finds Enforcement of Immigration Laws Led to Racial Profiling The new report, “The CAP Effect: Racial Profiling in the ICE Criminal Alien Program,” was released today by the Chief Justice Earl Warren Institute on Race, Ethnicity and Diversity (Warren Institute) at UC Berkeley School of Law (Berkeley Law). “It was clearly a fishing expedition. Police cast a wide net to arrest anyone who looked Hispanic for any minor violation,” said report co-author Aarti Kohli, immigration policy expert at Berkeley Law’s Warren Institute. “The Hispanic community suspected racial profiling as the root cause of the increase in arrests. Our report backs that up.”

POPSLeftover Bush Leaguers Misusing ICE Computers The eight years of the Bush Presidency have left us with quite an undesirable legacy - one that includes its attracting people who work for Homeland Security (Border Patrol) who will lie and steal to "get" at people they do not like or fear. Profiling police always seem to say, we are just doing our job and it's just a coincidence that they stop more black, brown, or other hated group than others in "doing" their job "by the book." In this case, they are using government computers to send fake messages to local newspapers.

POPSObama, Congress Again Push Amnesty for Illegal Aliens The U.S. House's judiciary committee also plans to hold a hearing next month on the allegations against Arpaio. "The Obama Administration and members of the US Congress are conspiring to stop and silence those in law enforcement who do not share their liberal viewpoint regarding illegal aliens. Don't be surprised to see American citizens as well being dragged into courtrooms because they oppose illegal aliens being given amnesty," warns Det. Frances. "These liberal-left fanatics want to replace American citizens -- who won't buy their ideology -- with Third-World peoples who don't even understand what's happening to this country," he said.

POPSHundreds Arrested In Immigration Raids At Poultry Plants
Federal authorities carried out the sweeps Wednesday, arresting hundreds of workers at Pilgrim's Pride chicken plants on charges of identity theft, document fraud and immigration violations. More than 25 people face immigration violation charges in Live Oak, Fla. They will also face identity theft or document fraud charges, ICE said. More than 20 were arrested in Batesville, Ark., on federal warrants for alleged document fraud or identity theft. DJs on a Spanish-language radio station told listeners to be careful Wednesday after reporting news of the raid. After the arrests, many of the dozens of businesses in town that cater to Latino immigrants had few customers or none at all. ''It's sad and scary,'' said Sheita Delacruz, who works at her mother's dress and gift shop. The poultry raids were the largest of the immigration enforcement actions across the country Wednesday. It was at least the fourth round of raids at U.S. poultry plants in the past three years.

POPSEmployer Arrested after Illegal Immigrant Murders a Police Officer They're required to say that Quintero "allegedly" shot the officer, but there's no question...he was handcuffed and locked in the back seat where he pulled out a pistol and shot him in the head 4 times. Robert Rutt, ICE Special Agent in charge of Houston: ''They are economic migrants, and if you take away their ability to get employment, the immigration problem will solve itself for the most part," he said. ''Our biggest weakness is not the porous border, but employers hiring illegal aliens." Worksite arrests by ICE agents have risen dramatically, according to agency statistics, which show criminal arrests — mostly company managers and contractors — jumped from 176 in fiscal 2005 to 863 in fiscal 2007. And administrative arrests of undocumented workers in worksite raids have increased from 1,116 in fiscal 2005 to 4,077 in fiscal 2007.

POPSArresting a 6-yeaer-old? Aw, get real! Is this nuts or what? What was the big emergency that a 6-year-old and to be traumatized in such a brutal manner? It's hardly as if this was a life and death emergency where a delay of an hour or so was gonna make any difference whatsoever. Some people let their badge get in the way of their judgment. I fear we are more and more turning into a jackboot society.

POPSBush's enforcement of immigration laws: a grand illusion. Bush continues trying to make it appear that he is enforcing our immigration laws when all the while he is planning on not only giving aliens amnesty, but he is also planning on giving away health care and other privileges formerly reserved for American citizens.
