Fine.

Come up with a proposed plan of action that solves this problem, and present it to us.

Be detailed. "Deport the illegal aliens" is a goal, not a plan of action. How would the illegal aliens be identified? How would they be apprehended?

"Put troops on the border" is meaningless in and of itself. How many troops? How many on post? What ROEs? What CONOPS?

In short, take the problem as seriously as you demand that others take it, and tell us how to solve it.

The biggest problem with all of this as you correctly pointed out is identifying illegal immigrants. How does one know if one is an illegal? Birth certificates might work but doubt a lot of american born citizens know where their birth certificate is.

Good points, and here is another.... What happens right now when we apprehend an illegal alien? ANSWER: We give them a slap on the wrist and a free ride to the border and repeat as necessary.

All of us here have broken the law at one point or another and what happens? ...... We face justice. If these illegal aliens are made to pay a fine for breaking our immigration laws, it's no different than what happens to any of us who break the law. We are not talking about a felony here, we are talking about aliens working here illegally
