Therein lies the problem. The papers will just omit the names the next time. It does little to actually combat the problem.

The problem in this area ( and I am sure other areas as well) is that the laws are not enforced. Immigrantion law in this country is a joke. That is one of things that ticks me off about Bush's proposal. He promises strict enforcement of the laws in the future, and I don't believe it. There is no attempt right now to enforce them so why believe they will be enforced later. It is an amnesty plan.

I think K's idea is a good one. What's wrong with us citizen's trying to do our part in helping eradicate this problem? If just every citizen would get one illegal busted, we could send a message. We're not gonna stand for this anymore, and there is a hell of lot more of us legals, than the illegals. (for now)
