Speaking Spanish While Shopping

... is yet another thing that can get people in trouble, at least in that hotbed of illegal immigration, Montana. While one might think that the biggest threat of illegal immigration there might be Canadians who have perhaps tired of hockey, this border patrol agent detained two U.S. citizens for a half hour because he heard them speaking Spanish to each other while standing in the checkout line at a convenience store. The official explanation:
It's good to know our northern borders are secure from illegal Hispanic immigrants doing a 2,000 mile end run around the Rio Grande in an effort to sneak in through Canada, at least as long as this particular Border Patrol officer is on the job.

The officer said his action wasn't racially motivated, although the video from the TV station shows one of the women who was questioned."Ma'am, the reason I asked you for your ID is because I came in here and saw that you guys are speaking Spanish, which is very unheard of up here."
