    Stockton, the river-port city south of Sacramento, has twice topped Fortune magazine's list of America's most miserable places to live. On Wednesday, it might become the nation's largest city to declare bankruptcy. We hear what that means for public safety and other services most cities take for granted. On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, the Supreme Court has thrown out some of Arizona's tough immigration law, but not all. Has profiling by state and local police been legitimized? Could it be adopted by cities and counties in California?
