My error. What about the increase of border personal to almost 12,000 in three years?
Here's the question. What should be done from here on out? We aren't going to deport 12 million people. It's just not going to happen. (unless I was dictator). What happens now? The border has been screwed up for 25 years. Do we start over and give everyone here a gimme? I'm all for troops along the border, but that includes canada, a fence will be breached someway or another, but troops every 100 feet will help. So, what do we do going forward?
Seal the border. Build a modern fence system. Vigorously enforce the laws on the books against hiring illegal aliens.
At that point, many will deport themselves.
Then, yes, use the resources of the federal, state and local governments to begin to deport those who have stolen their way into our country.
