Yes, we have a dramatic illegal alien problem even here in Northern Virginia. Besides everything CapitalistEric warned us about in 181, we have drugs, shootouts averaging one a day, sexual assaults, murders, petty theft, overcrowded housing, schools and hospitals.

Its so bad, the Feds are in here chasing down the Salvadoran MS13 gangs on RICO charges.

Its insane.

All of these Hispanics ARE NOT religious, hard working family people.

Multiply that across the country, from Florida along the border to California, and in all urban areas in America, it is unbelievable to me (and to Bill O'Reilly) that we haven't locked down our borders over these issues alone.

Throw in the fact we know potential terrorists also enter the country via these routes, it becomes a no-brainer issue.

If we really are serious about tackling illegal immigration, we need to go after the Americans who are hiring them.

If there are no jobs for illegal aliens -- they simply will not come.

The thing that gets me about homeland secutiry and those who say without GWB we are all in danger. The way the southern border is you could and they do drive 18 wheelers full of people illegally up from Mexico. What to stop the next one being loaded with terrorists and dirty bombs. The southern border is wide open, and there is nothing on the table to secure it.
