PHOENIX, Sept. 20, 2012—Arizona's new immigration law takes effect this week. According to the law, police officers must check the status of anyone who may be an undocumented immigrant. Officers have the right to decide who is checked under this law.

Which argument would an opponent of this law use to show that the law is unjustified?

Answer :

Discrimination. If an officer is only checking people of a certain ethnic background or a certain color the law could be considered discriminatory and would need to be more specific in who was checked.

These checks may be considered unreasonable searches under the Fourth Amendment.
