Idiot law

...or wingnuttery manifest ...

A new law in Arizona authorizes local cops to enforce federal immigration laws, including checking the immigration status of anyone cops "reasonably" believe might be an illegal immigrant.

In other words, May I see your papers please? Since illegal immigrants rarely wear t-shirts emblazoned "illegal immigrant", it's difficult to see this as anything but a new excuse to hassle non-white folks, but c'mon — cops in Arizona didn't need a new excuse for that in the first place.
