It means that our law enforcement officers on the local level can be focused on dealing with local crime issues and becoming part of the community. I think this amendment may have good intentions. but it certainly is paved wrongly and the road goes in the completely wrong direction. This is not the direction we should send local law enforcement. to make them the entrappers of individuals who may look different or speak a different language. They have worked very well with the INS. the Border Patrol. and others in the local communities. But it is perfectly obvious that if anyone in a local jurisdiction is committing a crime. that local law enforcement can. in fact. act upon that crime. They can arrest that person.
