Finding some Hispanic people near the border is not legal grounds for an arrest without a warrant.
I’m sure finding people coming from the direction of the border with supplies and other gear certainly is reasonable information to conclude that they’re illegal, however
Yeah, that, and add in the no habla ingles is probably another giveaway, plus general appearance, IE wet, dirty, etc. (that's not racist, think about it for a minute before you get all upset) That article OP posted is out of date, might not still hold true. Even if it does, a crimes a crime, and as I've been saying they are justified imo.
