The law should be changed. They shouldn’t be given two more chance to kill a car full of innocent people.

One offense of any kind and gone. Bam! That should be the law for legals. Illegals should be gone. Why do we have to give them the chance to hurt someone before deporting them?

Maybe that’s why those who’s native language is Spanish sometimes are “cut loose” since police departments don’t want to open that can of worms.

The law is not being enforced for public safety, it is about revenue for cities, counties, courts, and lawyers.

If a US citizen has one dui in the past 10 years he is refused entry into Canada, even at the arrival airport.

No one should be released from custody without having to be interviewed by ICE to determine the immigration status of the individual. Failure to prove citizenship or legal residency means immediate incarceration.

Immigrants should be deported after the first DUI.

Illegal aliens should be deported. Period.

First contact with any law enforcement should result in detention and deportation.

Illegal aliens should not be afforded the opportunity to harm or kill Americans before we deport them.

We should not have to wait until they have been caught and convicted for other crimes, deportation upon discovery.

At first I thought it was a FReeper joke that the writers name was Randy Travis concerning dui’s. Real name.

I wouldn’t deport them for jaywalking or speeding tickets or other minor misdemeanors.

If police arrest an illegal alien for anything they should be deported immediately after serving any time in jail

DUI Illegal Immigrant Offenders Won’t Get Deported

If you have a DUI conviction, good luck emigrating to another country. Most countries will file your application in the trash can if you’ve got a conviction on your record (also for drug convictions as well.)

So I find it really impossible that you can get a DUI in the United States and NOT be deported. But love of the undocumented illegals who are stealing the places of lawful immigrants who actually want to be part of this country has blinded liberals to this. They’ll publish people’s names and photos in the paper if it is a citizen who gets a DUI; it just is unfair if you do it to an illegal in their twisted world view.

Can anyone link to a valid cost/benefit analysis of DUI/DWI enforcement? Would love to see a realistic analysis!

But for someone here legally, like on a work permit or green card, they usually can't be kicked out unless they commit a felony. And that takes three DUIs.

Make the first DUI a felony, problem solved.

Can’t get into Canada, even as a visitor/tourist if you have even one DUI.

If a Canadian citizen has one conviction for simple possession of marijuana, even if it was 35 years ago, he/she is denied entry to the USA and is listed by DHS, CBP and ICE as “inadmissible”.
