Arizona’s ID-check law boils down to harassment - chicagotribune.com

This point really struck home:

I had a taste of what that was like in the 1970s as a black American reporter during South Africa's apartheid regime. The white-minority government's "influx control" policy required all black South Africans to carry a photo-ID "passbook" in urban areas to prevent a deluge of black Africans from flooding in to areas where the jobs were. Sound familiar?
