It's always OUR fault. Go figure.

U.S. Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez makes a point while speaking about immigration to the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials, which is holding its annual convention, in Dallas, Thursday, June 22, 2006. Gutierrez said that Americans can maintain a balance between enhancing border security and remaining a nation made up of immigrants. Emotions have encroached into the debate over how to reform immigration, keeping both sides from communicating effectively, Gutierrez said. (AP Photo/LM Otero)
Invaders have special rights, bestowed on them unfortunately, yaknow, at least in some folks eyes anyway.
No one party or President is wholely responsible for this mess we're in, only the ones who chose to ignore what was happening for whatever reason, imo.

I would ask folks to refrain from the use of words like
Nazi etc on this thread during an attempt at a civil discussion.. FR is above that, imo. We need to set an example to our gubamint if it is truly to be one with the people,, cursing and swearing and use of abusive language is not assisting us in moving toward that end, imo.
FRom the article.. you have a lot of parties interested in keeping them around and initiating legal processes..

More than 200,000 people are detained over the course of a year in any of three types of facilities — eight run by ICE itself, six run by for-profit companies that are eager for more business, and 312 county and municipal jails that have won lucrative federal contracts and hold about 57 percent of the detainees. Advocacy groups call it a hodgepodge system that is expensive and difficult to monitor.
"ICE hasn't done a good job with the facilities they directly manage, much less the ones they contract out," said Judith Greene, a New York-based prison expert. "Talking about doubling or tripling this system, without some kind of restructuring, is a recipe for a nightmare."

Thank ye much for the link and reminder.
New tagline.
Send 'em out to Sheriff Joe Arpio in Maricopa County, AZ along with enough dough to let Joe buy enough tents and pink underwear for them. Bet he could house a million or more for around a buck a piece per year which is about 11 months longer than it SHOULD take for them -- despite Tom Wolfe's line -- to WANT to go home again.
Given that projected turn-over rate, might take a year to get them all safely back home.
Sheriff Joe -- call your office.
My son told me about waiting forever behind one of our amigas and her large brood at the grocery check-out while the clerk struggled with entering her FOOD STAMP purchases into the system while she glared at him -- and he glared back. It was all he could do to contain himself as he thought about how hard HE worked to earn not only the funds to buy groceriers for himself, his wife and 2 year-old son BUT THE FUNDS THE IRS AND STATE CONFISCATED FROM HIM TO BUY HERS AS WELL!
When he got to the clerk, he asked if he could add HIS purchase to hers. The clerk rolled his eyes.
One way or another, THIS CRAP IS GONNA STOP!!!!
RE-ELECT NOBODY!!!!!!
Hey idiot...build a wall to keep the invaders out.
You are right! Stop looking for extenuating circumstances. Ignore the ACLU and other whining Liberals. Load em up, ship em out, Rawhide!
Thanks for looking.
Nightmare for who? The criminal illegal aliens? Awwwwwwwww.
If so, perhaps they will stop violating our border and immigration laws!
The reason we are the greatest nation on earth is b/c we are a nation of laws.
Now those immigrants who come here legally, and demonstrate they respect our laws, will be treated accordingly.
The reality of ones who cross our borders illegally show that firstly, they pay no state and federal taxes---ever. And using forged documents, several phony ID's and multiple SS #'s, they get welfare, food stamps, housing subsidies, reduced mortgages, free medical care, free education, reduced in-state tuition and out of state tuition for themselves and their mutiple kids.
Using multiple phony SS #'s, forged documents, and multiple IDs they collect several $4500-$5400 EICs from the IRS by declaring several names/jobs - just by going $1 over the income limit. And they collect for EINs, ITINs, Child Tax Credit, Additional Child Tax Credit (and didn't even pay taxes).
Using several phony identities, they can simultaneously pocket unemployment benefits, social security disability benefits for themselves and members of their large extended families, state and federal scholarships, free tuition, affirmative action preferences in education and employment, and got free coverage under state and/or federal health care plans.
All this including sending $38 billion per year out of the US economy back to Mexico---the second largest revenue producer for that country.
The contempt these predators have for Americans is just unbelievable--thinking we will sit still for the takeover of our government by predators who will use violence if necessary, to turn our gov't into a Third World banana republic.
The Sheriff Arpio approach solves a lot of these problems-- they will get to exercise outdoors and learn English on the job. It will cost a LOT less. These same "advocates" are mad as hell about a proposal by Senator Goldwater's nephew which would also give them meaningful work fixing fences and cleaning up the pollution. There just ain't no pleasing some of these people.
Home base? You mean Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico?
Simple solution. Get out!
