Do U think illegals caught trespassing as claimed here should not be arrested due to causing distrust with police ? How many Americans with any encounter with the law with no ID get arrested no matter what they did ?The U.S. Border Patrol met with top Riverside police officials in November to offer its help in verifying the identity of immigrants, a police commander said Saturday.
The offer came as agents in the Riverside office of the Border Patrol said they were being threatened with punishment for not meeting arrest quotas, according to the union that represents them. The Border Patrol denies making such threats but acknowledges the Riverside office has numerical goals.
Immigrant-rights activists have criticized Riverside police for calling the Border Patrol on Jan. 29 after arresting 12 day laborers on Madison Street near Highway 91 on minor charges such as trespassing. They say police collaboration with the Border Patrol increases distrust of police and makes crime victims less likely to report incidents.
not enough time
Police Lt. Bruce Loftus said he called the agency because his officers did not have time to verify the identity of the 12 men, and because the Border Patrol has experience in identity checks. The Border Patrol arrested 11 of the men on immigration charges.
Loftus said he called the Border Patrol to verify the suspects' identity but acknowledged "we know there's a chance people might be illegal aliens and we know Border Patrol has to perform their duties."
Loftus, commander of Riverside's central area, said he was among high-ranking police officials who met in November to hear the offer of assistance from the head of Riverside's Border Patrol office, Ramon Chavez.
NO RACIAL PROFILING
Loftus denied police engage in racial profiling. He said police call Border Patrol to help with some Spanish-speaking people because agents speak Spanish. Loftus said he's aware of at least one other instance in which police have called the Border Patrol since November. He was unaware of the details of the case.
Loftus on Saturday helped to monitor a demonstration that condemned recent raids and criticized Riverside police for calling the Border Patrol on Jan. 29. A crowd that Loftus estimated at 200 to 250, and demonstrators said totaled 500, marched more than two miles in the rain from Riverside City Hall to the Border Patrol's Riverside station.
About 25 people, many of them members of the Minuteman Project, held a counterdemonstration supporting the Border Patrol.
At least 39 people have been arrested in the past several weeks during Border Patrol sweeps of Inland day-labor sites, according to the Mexican and Guatemalan consulates. The Border Patrol acknowledges recent arrests on public streets but declines to confirm the number.

I feel racial profiling nessesarry in certain instances. Its unfortunate but lets desperate times require desperate measures and if a few weopon brandishing idots who want to provoke the border patrol have to be exterminated, so be it. These people choose to knowingly come here illegaly. They come here as gang members, thieves, rapists, murders,etc.. not all come with this intent but how does one tell wich is wich. Our prisons are overloaded we these people, and whether thier crime is violent or non violent they ALL are comminting a crime. |

if they are here illegally and trespassing then they should be arrested and deported. It is against the law. |

If the police arrested an illegal butt f#cking a 6 year old in the middle of Main Street some Hispanic would be crying racism and others would be saying that it strains relations between the police and criminals!
Go back where you came from and you won't have a problem!
Imagine the criminals being afraid of the police! What is this country coming to? |

If we got busy and deported all the illegals through attrition, this would not even be a problem. So they are target, big deal. If they had not lied, cheated, and stole to get here they would not be victimized |

All criminals should be arrested and punished in accordance with the law.
This malarkey about "they won't report real crimes for fear of being deported" by making themselves known to police is just dung.
They are criminals. If they dont want to be identified as such, then they shouldn't commit the crime of being here illegally in the first place.......or they should accept that they have to deal with the consequences of living in the criminal world.
They can't have it both ways. |

I am getting really sick of the special treatment demanded for and given to illegal aliens. I am getting really sick of fighting amnesty and legislation to give benefits to illegals. I am getting really sick of trying to teach my state reps the true intent of the 14th.
I say kick their a$$es out of DC and elect a new gov who is willing to work with and for us, the legal citizens of the US |

If somebody is breaking a law they should be arrested weather they are German, Indian, Iranian, Mexican, Bolivian, or a one-eyed-one-horned-flying-purple-people... Not arresting somebody because they are of a certain race is racist. After all the definition of racism is treating somebody differently because of their race. |
