Madhuri Mohindar of Breakthrough @ Netroots Nation panel "Crimmigration Under Obama"

Pushing Back Against the "Enforcement-only" Immigration Regime (http://netrootsnation.org/node/1407): Immigration enforcement under the Obama administration has continued almost unchanged from the "enforcement-only" regime perfected by the Bush administration, applying criminal enforcement tactics to the civil immigration system. While Department of Homeland Security officials have promised to reform the immigration detention system after dozens of deaths in detention, the effort has been cosmetic and designed to forestall more rigorous oversight. Despite moving away from massive workplace raids, the agency has continued home and business raids under the radar, with the result that overall levels of deportation have actually increased under Obama. Meanwhile, legislative reform is stalled in Congress and the White House has not shown leadership. Advocates and activists discussed recent direct action pushing back against the Obama administration's enforcement policy.

Explain the "racial profiling aspect" if you would. How the communities are being threatened by SB1070. And by communities, I assume you mean the legal U.S. citizens and those legally permitted to be here.

You may want to actually read the bill.
