Obama's Executive Order on Immigration is Unconstitutional, Says Court

You’re wrong.

At least until the ruling is overturned which I’m pretty sure it will be.

Well… even the order is dicta with respect to the point.

Of course it is wrong, Obama did it.

I think ultimately it comes down to equal protection. If a cop does not stop the guy in front of me when he runs a red light but does cite me is the “prosecutorial discretion” or violation of equal protection? What about when the DA declines to pursue child support. How do they determine what cases to ignore? Is there racism involved in the decision? Suppose in teenage shoplifting cases, 95% of the uses of “prosecutorial discretion” involve whites.

Definately questions to answer.

The Supreme Court ruled in the case Yick Wo v. Hopkins that it was unconstitutional to use selective enforcement to discriminate on the basis of race.

The Supreme Court ruled in the case Yick Wo v. Hopkins that it was unconstitutional to use selective enforcement to discriminate on the basis of race.

And then promptly ignored the ruling for 60 years.
