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.

I don't get it

I've always expected of FR to be mature and educated

WHY would the question be worded so obliquely and then posted to FR for us to discuss a stupid situation?


I don't think we need to "approach" illegal immigration ... I think we should prosecute it

If someone thinks we should approach prosecution, they are on the wrong side of the rule of law.


It IS, after all ... illegal ... against the law


Maybe this is what we have become or will soon be ... like timid cops (unfortunately justifiably so) who hesitate to act/respond because of a pre-conceived and the planted-in-their-brain seed that the monster they face may not be eliminated or incarcerated because of its color or something


And THIS, I think, is why Donald Trump is so popular

He talks plainly about a situation and poses a solution that looks like it just might work and it doesn't need a committee to study it or a Congress to enact a new law

I am in agreement with you, certainly. In fact, I very early on voiced my problem with VDH in his appeasing column about this in Kalin’s thread.

You can’t say it enough: ILEGAL IS ILLEGAL!

It isn’t “immigrant”, it isn’t “undocumented”, it isn’t any of those words Democrats and RINO appeasers use to try and diffuse the real problem by hiding “illegal” under “immigrants” as a group.

ILLEGAL is ILLEGAL. How hard is that to understand?

So far, Trump is the only person to use the word “Deport”. The rest of the candidates are as scared of the word as Obama is of saying “Islamic terrorism”.

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....

I had a dream that if we only had a MacArthur to work as military governor, we should do a military occupation of the northern 25% of Mexico (to reflect the fact that 25% of them already live here) and resettle everyone there under martial law.

Round up and shoot the gang-bangers and drug dealers with drumhead trials and help the decent industrious portion of the population get established and grow.

Within a generation, that portion of Mexico would be a functional state well on its way to first world status and serve as a buffer between us and points south, sort of like Santa Ana envisioned a Texas settled by Americans as a buffer between Mexico and the Comanche. Only we would exploit them and would draw down the military occupation as we did in the Philippines as they became functional and self-governing.

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

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

Reform should first include strict enforcement of the border.

It should also include a strict crackdown on companies hiring illegal aliens as well. If people faced jail time for hiring an illegal then they might be motivated to ensure their status.

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.

Exactly to the point. I wonder why it is so hard for a candidate to articulate a plan that straightforward? Of course, most of them are controlled by the C of C.

I think Trump agrees with what you said and I do, too.

I hope it doesn’t come to that, but it may if the government doesn’t start upholding the law. I think all legal American citizens are fed up.
