My son is seeing that it looks like a Hispanic has his Social Security number and we are going to have to check this out. That's pretty upsetting.

I want them to check and verify if their papers are false. There is way too much of that going on as well.
Go to the Pheonix/Mesa Hilton and you will find some much older ladies with a very heavy accent.They are not hispanic.

It's just strange that his wife, who also said she was born in the US, doesn't have an accent and he does while saying his mother lived in Mexico.

Regardless, whatever answers he gave the Feds was not satisfying them without the birth certificate. They got that lined out and he was let go. I don't see the problem. He was detained at the weigh station for some reason and I am not prepared to call it racial profiling.

But be honest, only mexicans are going to be asked for papers, its racial profiling, and as a Mexican I don't agree with it. This is terrible dividing law. Terrible!

Really?

Because every time I have ever been stopped I have been asked for identification that indicates my citizenship.
