The US can handle the lower number, without the gotterdamrung scenario of your ilk. That is my judgment. I am in favor of jailing employers who hire illegals, and having a system that identifies illegals applying for a job, which goes into a national data bank, for each and every one who is hired. That would shut the whole thing down, or most of it, if implemented. But almost none of the nativists on this site mention that approach. They just rant about having the military on the borders, or rounding up folks on the street. Sad.

Too much coffee today Torie? What did I do to deserve that? If you could be specific.

National data bank eh? Look Torie, I too am in favor of jailing, and seizing the assets of those that knowingly, repeatedly, hire illegal aliens.

Torie, again that is not a factual statement, as there have been many very credible solutions offered, hundreds of times, here and everywhere else.

Torie, I have to say I am pleasantly surprised you said that. This action alone would go a long way towards turning the tide on illegal immigration.

I don't know where you are coming from with that statement. There have been countless threads on FR over the years that have dealt with reasonable ways of solving the illegal immigration crisis. You act like you are the first one to come up with a solution. LOL. Tell that to Sabertooth or Marine Inspector and a few hunderd other posters that have offered intelligent solutions. Most of us, by the way, aren't into door to door searches for Illegals or mining the borders but if “Nativist” (love those high handed WSJ put downs) in your mind means wanting to protect America from INVASION then I guess I'm a Nativist.
