Groovy.

So charge them with income tax evasion the day they walk in for the amnesty, or else absolve them of all the crimes they committed, and then explain that to the ordinary American.

It isn't just crossing into and being in the country. It's violating labor laws, tax laws, document fraud, welfare fraud, driving laws (you drove a car without a license and insurance for 5 years?), a whole laundry list of felonies that already exist on the books.

Do the Spineless Ones propose to issue a blanket amnesty for all the rest of us who may have fractured a few of these laws, or are we held to a different standard than the average criminal alien?

You have to charge them for specific crimes. You can't just assume they are guilty of violations. The only way this is going to happen is to task city and state police officers to arrest and identify them. If someone who has committed a crime is shown to be illegal, then he/she may be prosecuted for the crime/deported. I think this is happening on a small scale. but my understanding is that cops don't want to do this work.

I keep seeing commercials for tax attorneys, offering to help people who are behind in their taxes.

If the criminal aliens are given tax amnesty, will AMERICAN citizens get a SIMILAR tax amnesty too?

Or will it be once again, "Advantage, Mexico"?

Good points. Have your ever asked that question to our Congress critters? I'm curious to see how they will try to wiggle out of that one.
