In a recent opinion, Cuccinelli advised that police in Virginia may inquire about the immigration status of people they stop or arrest if they have the requisite level of suspicion that the person violated a criminal immigration law. McDonnell has said that he thinks the opinion tracks closely to one he issued on the topic in 2007.

But in a letter sent to McDonnell this week, LatinoJustice PRLDEF says it is prepared to sue the state or any of its agencies if McDonnell authorizes law enforcement agents to conduct investigations into the immigration status of persons they stop or arrest.

It's catching on. Just a matter of time. As long as those silly pro-illegels keep holding flag trashing events and anti-U.S. rallies, the country will swing in the direction of Arizona soon enough.

Funny how it's not racism yet it's ALWAYS without fail LATINO advocacy groups - hmmmmmmmmmm

Could have sworn the laws are about ILLEGAL immigration.

Will this group sue if a say person of Asian or European extraction is asked to provide same?

Guess we better not hold our breath for THAT one.

I should hope so. Illegal Europeans or Aussies would be worse. They might take my job!

If a guy with a Canadian accent shows up in NY speaking French.....I'd say that yeah...maybe he should be checked for citizenship, too.

I know you are kidding. But I would think being an Aussie would be of great advantage. Most Americans have some level of fascination with Australia.

police have the right and sworn obligation to stop people they think are breaking the law.
ACLU is rapidly becoming an evil organization. the type of lawyers that get rapists and child killers (often illegals) off free.
