U.S. Supreme Court Allows Trump Administration to Resume Profiling Latinos in L.A.

"When ICE grabbed me, they never showed a warrant or explained why," the lead plaintiff, Pedro Vasquez Perdomo, said in a statement released by his lawyers. "I was treated like I didn't matter — locked up, cold, hungry and without a lawyer. Now, the Supreme Court says that's OK? That's not justice. That's racism with a badge."

"This ruling puts millions of citizens and immigrants under suspicion simply for existing," said Assembly Member Mark Gonzalez, D-Los Angeles.  "That's not law and order — that's discrimination wearing the mask of justice."
