It is illegal but it must be adjudicated before legally illegal. As weird as that sounds, it is a Constitutional Right of ALL people accused in the US.If they don't have a green card, a legal U.S. ID, or an American birth certificate, they can't defend their right to be here. This is an invasion by a foreign nation, and we do have laws - as well as government oaths - to protest us from it. This is a military matter.

I know the reason for the catch-and-release of these illegals. Their adipose fins weren't clipped which meant they were 'native illegal immigrants' and had to be released. I sure hope INS didn't handle them to rough or else the game department is gonna place some serious hurt on them.

You're right, they can't defend themselves but under our laws, they don't have to but law enforcement better have the evidence that they committed a crime and in order to deport them law enforcement better prove also that they're here illegally.

Did you know a thermal nuclear weapon is no bigger than a soccer ball? You've heard about the underground tunnels running from Mexico to the U.S.? The trucks that come to America every day to do commerce? For the right price, a soccer ball sized bomb could wipe out most of Arizona. It would make Chernobyl look small because of the power plants located there.
Open borders and a massive influx of foreign illegals who believe the south west belongs to them is not a pretty picture.
This is a military issue, not a political one.

The `exclusionary rule' applies to illegal aliens as well as citizens, you are keerect, sir.
Even foreign nationals who sneak across our border with the express assistance of their government, knowingly breaking our laws are entitled to the protection of our laws.
God bless America, and may El Diablo take Mexico.

"They are not criminals. All they're here for is to work for their family,"
Just for them to come in here and to just throw them back to where they go. That's not right for them,"
Hey, Gomez. If they didn't come here legally, then they're illegaly and criminally here.
And what's not right is our having to pay for their not bothering to come here legally with out taxpayer-funded social programs.
How hard is this for these morons to understand?!

It's not a Red Herring to point out difficulties within the legal system. In this case it may have been a computer lame excuse but as for overcrowding, in the state of Texas it's illegal to have overcrowded jails even for a minute. About 10 years ago the Texas SC literally went cell to cell and pointed out who to release. I don't agree with the way the law is being used in this illegal immigrant issue but I'm not going to support suspending some legal standards because of something I don't like. Congress can make some minor legal changes and we won't have a "catch and release" like failure to provide ID can result in denied bond until such positive ID is made, simple. Another one is if a deportation order is affirmed by a judge then no further entry into the US will be allowed, even for visits. Make a child of two illegal immigrants is born in the US the parents will have to make a choice, take the child with them back to where ever or put up for adoption at a state agency.

Clearly if you are here in the US illegally (at least if you're from south of our border), most of our laws don't apply to you in the same way the apply to citizens. I know it's weird, but this appears to be the case. We have fallen down the rabbit hole with Alice.

Thank you for your post. You have hit the nail on the head, targeting in on why we will not be able to stop this invasion.

There is another thread about this. They have to sign a document waiving a hearing in order to be deported. Otherwise, there has to be a due process hearing and if there is no place to store them, you have to let them go.
There is nothing in that paragraph outrageous. They have to have due process because the law is paramount. If there is no place to put them pending due process, you have to let them go.
They promise to return for their hearing. If they don't, they will have committed a second crime and if caught again, they are in a different category and do not get released.
About the most you can do is build new housing facilities, which takes time and money. Otherwise, you catch, process, schedule for hearing, incarcerate if there is room, or release if there is not.
The employers arrested are not released. That part of this is the best of all the publicity.

It's a border line "military issue" but definitely a legal issue and for that reason any border state Governor can call the National Guard to control the border.

Kennedy, Pelosi, Bush and other powerful immigration leftists have decided that the United States must be replaced with a merged hybrid state with Mexico. And it appears they will have their way.

To: brytlea
I didn't say it couldn't be stopped but it's going to take some courage on the Congressional part to make laws that streamline the process getting to adjudication and have better legal definitions for the courts to decide adjudication and then have the buses awaiting for them outside the courthouse ready to deport. The whole process could be legally streamlined to take no more than 72 hours if all the computer networks can talk to each other and we have dedicated legal enforcement.
