Recently, there have been raids by the INS in which US citizens were jailed as "illegal aliens" because they "resembled" Mexicans. Many of these people were either Native American, or Hispanics from the Southwestern states whose families have been American Citizens for generations. There might have been some Puerto Ricans, who are US citizens as well in the round-up. In short they were arresting anyone with brown skin and black hair.
