Reform should first include strict enforcement of the border.

lets start right there.

A sensible approach to illegal immigration can be summed up in one 6-letter, easy to remember word:

DEPORT.

Millions, we sometimes forget, are fleeing from the authoritarianism, racism, corruption and class oppression of Mexico.

And then they bring it here.

For every left-wing city that declares immigration statutes inoperative, a right-wing counterpart might do the same with the Endangered Species Act, gun registration laws, affirmative action or gay marriage. The result would be chaos and anarchy, not compassion.

IF WE (traditional Americans) had 'Sanctuary Cities' that negated liberal laws and memes, the New York Times would be screaming bloody murder. As is, the little effers say nary a word...

Best solution:

Round them up, send back to where they came...charge the countries that they came from room and board for them being here, if they come back again, take em out....

WHY should we spend our tax dollars and retirement funds for people that are criminal, dirty, stupid, and demented when we have people that are Veterans that are on the streets that need our help....to hell with that....our people are more important....

America went to war over the Confederate states’ nullification of federal laws.

If that's what you call bombarding an army fort, then yeah.

The sensible approach is to build a border and enforce our laws, including deporting the illegal aliens. If denied welfare and jobs, many will self-deport. No legal immigrants from enemy nations; likely terrorists; and those taking jobs from Americans and/or wanting welfare.

One can only hope that White people are waking up.

Two footnotes about the author, Victor Davis Hanson.

He's lived his entire life in the heavily Hispanic agricultural region of central California, and in nearby Santa Cruz and Palo Alto.

He's also affiliated with National Review, which means he supports total Amnesty, but he's required by NR to work really, really hard to camouflage that fact.

I barely read these anti-illegal immigrant essays and comments anymore.

Every national candidate in the Republican Party is against illegal immigration these days (and every candidate supports some form of Amnesty).

The true test is how Republican pundits, candidates, and voters feel about massive LEGAL immigration.

Thanks to 20 million immigrant citizens and their children, the Democrats have enough LEGAL voters to take permanent control of the White House, the Senate, and, after the 2022 redistricting, the House of Representatives.

When the Democrats figure out how to consistently get their core voting groups to the polls, the game is over for Conservatives.

And, for reasons I cannot understand, a solid majority of Republican voters do not seem to care.

Reform should first include strict enforcement of the border. A new, ethnically blind immigration system would select from among applicants based on skill sets and education, and consider candidates from all over the world — not on the basis of ethnic identity or proximity to the border.

When the labor participation rate goes above 70% and unemployment goes below 4% then - maybe we need to let same immigrants in. As it stands now we don't need anymore immigrants PERIOD. What's with the fascination with immigration amongst the "ELITES"? Aren't the ones here good enough for them?

If they can’t support their families without social programs at 125% over the poverty line for ten years; then no residency.

[A CA Guy]

A wall and no ability to bring generations over for our social security either.

For a serious answer, look at TED CRUZ's response.
For a Biblical answer, look at this

It’s useless to say America needs a sensible anything when we know the insane politicians are not going to do anything.
