He picked people of certain ethnic origins off the street and demanded they prove their immigration status. As Rep Justin Amash pointed out, this violates their 4th Amendment rights.
Oh Boo Hoo. It is called profiling.

New York did it, they merely stopped suspicious people and asked for ID. It cut way down on crime and got a lot of bad people OFF THE STREETS.
The State Police do it when they have a police stop just to check cars. It deters a lot of crime.
The border Patrol do it. They target various cars to deter illegals and stop a lot of bad guys.
If you are just an average Joe, then you have nothing to worry over. The cops are out there trying to keep you safe. They just need a moment of your time and I would be glad to comply. If you are an illegal, then you have everything to worry about and no rights were violated because as an illegal alien, YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS. Even after the wall gets built, the only really effective way to combat illegal immigration is to make the risk of coming here WORSE than the reward.

A pardon does not make the person innocent. It grants forgiveness.
