Like it or not, there definitely has been an increased homeland security presence around voter registration efforts focused at latinos, and thus a corresponding chorus of protest from those people affected (who, out here, are Dems, despite the admin's immigration proposals). I've seen several stories on this theme. You should probably take that with a grain of salt, since I do live in crackpot lefty central, but on the other hand this wasn't the gratuitous race-bait out of left field you make it out to be.
The funny thing is that one of these articles used a similar anecdote from Florida, but as we saw during the most recent felon list controversy Florida's hispanics actually vote republican by a wide margin.

The quote was: 'The Right will scream "voter fraud" everytime a Hispanic person votes, and the Left will be screaming about voter intimidation and voting machines.'
How does the governments focus on electoral groups for homeland security issues have anything to do with a suggestion that
the Right will later scream something everytime a Hispanic person votes. Sorry, but that is just a shrill and absolutely repulsive charge to level without support. Either people should explain what they are talking about (even you haven't explained what he might be talking about to the point that I or anyone would understand it), or they should keep these comments to themselves. Its no wonder someone in Texas would get a pit in their stomach reading it.
That said, what homeland security efforts are you talking about? What are they doing?
