This is not racial profiling. Everyone has to produce documents (not just Latinos.) If someone's English is as Ethier's is, then employers won't bother him. What it does is put an emphasis on English skills. Not just Latinos' English Skills. Anyone's English Skills. The only way to stop Illegal Immigration is for it to be painful to get caught. Since we don't seem willing to give the Illegals pain, the only alternative is to punish employers that break the law by hiring them. No Gold = No Gold Rush.
