After that, deport this illegal alien invader. Seize any assets he may have.

How come Juan keeps coming here? Can he not hold a job in Mexico? Does he have a criminal record there? Seems these are fair questions for all of them.

When people like this finish their sentences, they need to be deported. Additionally, there should be a warrant issued in that person's name for a suspended sentence of a period of time commensurate with their past crimes. That way if they are ever picked up again the warrant will pop up in the system.

Years ago a warrant like that would be useless because illegals always used false names. With the advent of computerized fingerprinting you have a really good chance of getting a match if they get picked up again. If they get picked up by CBP or ICE they will definitely have their prints put into the electronic system.

Actually, they should be hanged.

deported three times?

Really?

We need a three strikes and your dead rule?

Build a penal colony in Australia? On the Moon?

We can’t afford to put all these guys in jail.

Here is the only solution I can think of:

Without proof of citizenship, or a green card you cannot access health care or education. No drivers license. No food stamps. No well-fare. It will be illegal to own or rent property.

That way they self deport and quit coming. I don’t know of a humane way of handling the problem other than that.

Questions that Obama refuses to ask and frankly, doesn’t care what the answer is.

I like your answer best. And send the bill to Mexico for the costs of his incarceration and a “rental” fee for the trebuchet. let them know it’ll be getting additional use in the future for which they’ll also be billed.

What is an “assault-style” shotgun? Does it have a bayonet mount? Does it use less powerful shells and have a box magazine?

Maybe they mean it’s a modern shotgun as opposed to a 4- or 5-foot single shot gun from eons past. (like the two shotguns from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels)

We don’t have to get money from Mexico for this. Seizure of property and assets will pay for it, plus we are going to charge $25 a turn for a chance to pull the lever on the trebuchet.
