We should make them suffer for their violation of our laws

Just the other day, Mr. Ridge signed a consent order allowing 26,000 illegals denied amnesty under the 1986 amnesty to apply for, and become, citizens of the United States. The excuse was that their applications had been "unfairly" denied.

Just think: they will never have to plead guilty to the numerous Federal felonies that they committed over the years (in this particular case, crossing into and out of the country repeatedly when they were told to stay put), document fraud, employment violations, etc etc. A laundry list of crimes for which not only will they never have a record of, or be punished for, but in fact will be rewarded with citizenship in the most powerful and richest country on Earth!

Suffer for the violation of the laws, instead of just deportation? Not only are they not deported, they are given rights and privileges over every American: they have the right to commit crimes and not even have to plead guilty to them, even when the Federal government knows explicitly that they committed the crimes!!

Which means that...once they are citizens, they can become Police Officers, join the Military and get their very own machine gun, fly airplanes with thousands of pounds of jet fuel on board and hundreds of people, you get the drift. No records. No asterisk next to their names. Nothing. Clean as the driven snow.

Think about the "justice" of that.

I'm with you. Even though just deporting them would not fully serve justice, it surely would be better than the status quo, which is just plain sick.
