I hate to think of how grotesque our country would become if we tried to expel 15 million people. It would not be quick, and it would not be painless, and comparisons with ethnic cleansing would be everywhere.

It would involve arresting small children in school, if you can imagine what that would do to all of the children, psychologically. People would become hysterical at the sight of police arresting their fellow workers at their places of employment.

Dear God, it sounds like something out of Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union of Alexander Solzhenitsyn.

Except many police, cities and some States would just refuse. The public would start to physically attack those who tried to arrest, ICE agents would be scorned.

Please think about this before you consider it. This is not some damn TV show, or just an emotional gratification for the same people who want felon convicts to be tortured for punishment.

This is 15 million people, many of who *are* integrating and learning English, and trying hard to be Americans. Please think of how horrible it would be for you and your family to be uprooted and kicked across the border into what is now a foreign country.

It is just not right. It is evil.

If employers could not hire them and they could not get free food, medicine and have anchor babies they will self deport. Your arguement is BS. No one wants to round them up and ship them out, we want them to leave by cutting off their gravy train.

“It is evil.”

I don’t agree with your predictions.

Don’t be foolish. The illegal immigrants KNOW they are illegal. When they see that our government is SERIOUS about upholding our immigration laws, many of them will return on their own.

In years past, our government’s immigration department handled deportations without a public outcry of being
heavy handed.

Sure, the illegals will feel the pressure. All people who break laws carry around a certain amount of fear of being caught. That’s human nature.

In this upside-down situation we have now, the persons who are breaking the law have a mindset that they are the victims and our law enforcement agencies are the bad guys.

Your sentiments do much to perpetuate this faulty thinking.

We live in a country based on law. No one should be above the law. If we loose the handle on this immigration thing, we might as well say goodbye to ever expecting people to obey the law. We will become a lawless society.

Your comments remind of parents who are afraid to discipline their children because the children won’t like it. You also are exhibiting the habit of burying one’s head in the sand and whistling in the dark that all is well — when in fact, these illegals and this terribly Anti-American immigration bill being considered — will be the downfall of the United States. We can’t afford to look the other way. We must insist that the immigration laws be enforced — before we pass more laws.

I hate how parts of MY Country have already become grotesque because of the invasion of illegal aliens. I hate to think how grotesque the entire Country will become unless we take back our sovereignty. No one is advocating roundups of all invaders, just enforce the laws we have and deny the invaders employment and social services and they will return to their own countries, women, children and all.

And BTW, if the invaders ever do resort to violence they will find that a fed-up and armed American citizenry will be the proverbial sleeping giant suddenly awakened and in no mood for the gentleness heretofore shown the invaders.

Shouldn't have come in illegally, now should they. No sympathy whatsoever for any criminals from me.

Giving them amnesty is not a good idea, even if you oppose deportation.

Go drivel your blather elsewhere.

We should march them out...and shoot those who refuse to go.

If Mexico got them to leave without deporting them, then so can we.
