The article is written like a 12 year old put it together. A couple things to consider....90% Hispanic population per the article and they complain of racial profiling??? If it's 90% Hispanic I bet close to 90% of the arrests or stops are Hispanic.....right??? What did I miss on that point?? If the other 10% were white and 90% of the arrests or stops were on white people then I would say yep something is wrong but at this point I don't see their point.
The article talks about immigrants but never states legal or illegal. This is an important point when considering its California and we have an illegal immigration problem and the illegals usually end up in ag jobs. Wonder what the percentage of immigrants there are legal?? Sure would be nice to know but it seems to be conveniently omitted....like I said a 12 year old wrote this article.
Vehicles were auctioned off or sold if the owners could not or would not get their cars after being impounded? Ok, what is the procedure for this department of impounded cars that don't get retrieved by the owner? I'm willing to bet they get sold or auctioned off. Just a guess.
What are the laws for that area concerning tinted windows being darker than a certain shade or a taillight being broken? Sure would be nice to know seeing how they mentioned it. Is it if the police cannot see inside the car at night? Daytime?? I'm assuming there is a law that says your taillights and blinkers need to work?? There must be a known law on this stuff because the immigrants complain of being pulled mover for....uhhh breaking the law? Maybe local businesses that sell the illegal tint should be fined??? I say if you break the law and get caught do the time. Stop bitching.
So some of the immigrants don't speak English.....hmmmm can you say illegal immigrant?? Most who become American citizens learn some of the language. If not don't complain about the citizens of the country who speak English and cant understanding you or if you do something illegal and your defense is you didn't understand English then you should be arrested and forced to learn the language......or stop bitching.
Many other parts of the article that seemed to paint the police guilty until proven innocent. I'm always for the police until it's proven something illegal has happened. I'm confident I could have written this goofball article better without all the accusatory statements that paint the poor little immigrant being abused by big bad law dog. Plus 10 of the 17 officers are Latino? What??? The way it was written I immediately assumed it was non-Hispanics preying on illegals.
People seem to forget that illegal means illegal and when it becomes inconvenient to your lifestyle of being arrested or stopped because your illegal then this man thinks...uhhhh start doing things legally?!?!?!? It's tough to follow my reasoning but please try......![]()
