The problem is that most of the Muslims, including the ones who attacked us, aren’t illegals and didn’t come in over the southern border (although I think some have come down through Canada). They are fully legal, and we let them attack us, ally with jihadis...and come and go. And if their visas expire, we just ignore it and they can still go on collecting welfare.

The southern border is definitely too porous, and something has got to be done about it (but not by Obama, clearly). However, the biggest problem we have is LEGAL immigration.

GOP Control of the US Senate will do nothing to stop Obama’s use of illegal EOs to grant amnesty.

What is needed is for at least one State to file for a federal preliminary injunction order and transfer enforcement of the order to State LEOS to arrest any federal officer or official that violates the federal order. This will stop Obama in his tracks. There is no other way now to stop him.

All these illegals should be told that they will be eligible for call up to do military service.

No way. In fact, I’d announce loud and clear that any “amesties” granted by unilateral and illegal presidential fiat will be considered invalid from the get-go, and will be reversed and rejected by the next president.

Keep them in the “shadows” living in fear, then step by step, cut off their govt support until they “self deport.”

They will keep coming as long as America is a big open ATM for them.

Give me a break. An “army” of 31K. Please. Even our silly Army could pulverize that with one hand tied behind its back.

The only thing I like about tyrants is that their own actions usually result in their own deaths and that many die a horrible (and well deserved) death. I hope dictators are reading this ...

The San Diego sector still contains the world’s busiest highway border crossing. They hide in vehicles. A few presumably also come via tunnels, but they have been almost exclusively for high-value dope shipments.

The state of the LEGAL immigration shows it is badly in need of reform. The H-1B is a non-immigrant visa in the United States under the Immigration and Nationality Act. The H-1B visas issued for the entry of high-tech specialists and researchers have to be reassessed, particularly as it impacts the very fields where Americans are willing to work, and would work in a highly productive manner, but which are being bid out the cheapest or most compliant employees.

There is currently more than enough talent among natural-born or naturalized citizens in most fields under which this form of work visa is issued. We have college graduates being turned away every day for these residential worker programs, which have the caveat that if the H-1B holder quits or is dismissed from the sponsoring employer, the worker must either apply for and be granted a change of status to another non-immigrant status, find another employer (subject to application for adjustment of status and/or change of visa), or leave the US. This is a powerful club to hold over the head of any employee, and one not one easily used against a US citizen applying for the position.

Of course, if one of these holders of an H1-1 visa does go rogue, and does not leave the country, with the extremely lax policies of expulsion of those who overstay their visa, a great deal of mischief may be worked in a very impactful manner. Another residential visa, the J-1 for scholars and some undergraduates, is subject to even more abuse, as there seems to be little oversight as to whether the “student” is necessarily still enrolled in the field of study for which he or she may have entered, and it is often allowed to lapse without the required renewal on a timely basis. There may be a temptation to steal a US citizen’s identity, and simply assume a life under illegitimate circumstances. Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev came and remained in this country on a fraudulent application, and even when the Russian Federation warned US authorities about the danger this pair posed, nothing was done until AFTER the Boston Marathon bombing.

Purge them all, summarily expel them from the soil of the US, and allow them to apply on readmission only on the basis of a full background review, which will NOT be granted on any “compassionate” grounds. If the applicant is not good for the US, and shall present any burden upon the governmental entities AT ANY TIME, those individuals shall not be admitted.

Admission to the US is a PRIVILEGE, not any kind of “right”.
