I’ve seen it while with my wife (from Mexico) crossing into the US (I’m white, from the US).

In fact, they were going to turn her away from entering the US at a pedestrian crossing because the railing forced us to walk in single file and she was in front of me. It wasn’t until I spoke up and said “she’s my wife and a legal resident” that they even took her seriously.

On a lighter note, their broken in Spanish is hilarious after spending any length of time in Mexico.
