Yes.
Homeboy, how dare you ask people to reflect on this (or any other, but especially this) issue. You’d better stock up on flame suits.
Yes!
See U.S. Code TITLE 8 > CHAPTER 12 > SUBCHAPTER II > Part VIII > § 1324
Follow Arizona as an example, they are self deporting to another state and back to their country.
RINOS will cave as usual.
No welfare, no free housing, no free healthcare, no free education, no illegal jobs. Go back to Mexico and apply for legal residency here.
Then we can at least have something to discuss.
No way. The next admin would find this to be against human rights, and they’d get the rest.
Deport, deport, deport.
Deport some, the rest will leave, if they think they’ll lose their property entirely. Better to sell assets and leave, than to be deported and lose their assets.
Eisenhower did it——no sweat.
Deportation doesn’t even need to be an option. Cut off the money and they leave voluntarily. We see it here all the time when the jobs dry up, and school enrollement drops by 20% or so....

The fines would never be paid, welfare rolls, food stamps, hospitals, schools and the criminal justice system would still be swamped, all at cost to taxpayers.
Thousands of Americans would still be assaulted, killed by illegal criminals and drivers with no insurance.
The dems would still get them to vote.
They would still continue to depress wages and take American jobs.
It's that simple. Over a period of a few years, I think you'd find our illegal problem will all but have completely abated.
Yes you can deport them all. You just have to have the SPINE to do it. Once it gets started, more will self-deport.
Take away the freebies, jobs, and ill-gotten gains and the rust back to the border will commence. But first you got to get a SPINE!
Google “attrition through enforcement’. We don’t have to deport 12 million/32 million/47 million/11 million ILLEGAL aliens. When they see the laws being enforced, they will move somewhere else—kind of like when your neighbor has his house sprayed for bugs, what happens? Then, what do YOU have to do?
All 50 states and the territories need to pass the same law as Arizona. Uniformity across the board will close the borders and keep America much safer than she is now, which isn’t very safe!
By all means convict them of a felony, then sentence them to 10 years forced labor and house them in factories.
Soon we’ll be exporting cheap goods to China and certainly nobody will want to be here illegally.
A path to anything needs to start with an application for legal immigration filed at a US Embassy outside of the United States. I don’t care how long you have been here, if you want legal status, go home and apply.
We did not provide transportation for the illegals to come here. They can find their own way home. If we have to deport them, we should deliver them to the souternmost part of Mexico.
If we find we need a guest worker program, applications can be filed at those same US Embassys overseas.
If anyone needs a lesson on how to make this work, they should Google “Operation Wetback”.
We already played this game.
We let them stay, everyone now here illegally came in after we let everyone stay the last time.
Deport them you silly.
Games are over
No its not all or nothing to answer your question.
But your premise is flawed. We don’t have to round up 12M people and deport them at once. We first stop the leak before we worry about rounding up anybody. Then and only then do we slowly deal with the existing illegals through a discentive structure focused at employers. You want to make it hard for the illegals and force them to deport themselves.
My first priority now is not deporting the existing illegals but to stop the flood. First things first. Where is this friggin’ wall and why isn’t someone - anyone - in Congress demanding it be built? We have a national security problem here.
“Realistically and logistically, how are we going to deport 12+ million illegal aliens”
You make a start - one illegal alien at a time...no matter what country they came from!
