I would presume being arrested as a felon illegal would be punishable by deportation?

You are a felon subject to deportation if you are again caught in the US after having been booted out. Guess what. It's never enforced

If you are caught entering the USA within 50 miles of the border from Mexico this is a misdemeanor.

If you are caught in the interior United States you are subject to civil penalties which are also never enforced

Anyone know what the laws are on a citizen apprehending a known felon?

I am trying to figure out what the angle is on passing legislation to make illegals a felon since they are already illegal, some on felony counts, some on misdemeanor.

Are we to assume our elected are just pacifying us by doing something, even though it is meaningless?
