ROCKVILLE, Md. -- The agency that oversees training and hiring standards for police departments in Maryland is looking at a proposal that would let noncitizens with green cards become police officers.
The proposal is being championed by Montgomery County Police Chief Thomas Manger. He said it doesn't make sense that legal immigrants can join the U.S. military but can't become law enforcement officers.
The Maryland Police Training Commission could vote on the issue next month.
Critics said it would be difficult to check the backgrounds of noncitizens applying to be officers, and they said the proposal could allow terrorists to infiltrate police agencies.

I guess we should kick them out of the military too?

My mistake. I’m so programmed by the media calling illegals “immigrants” I jumped the gun.

It’s knee jerkers like you that make any discussion about immigrants a non-starter around here.
Let me make it REAL SIMPLE FOR YOU:
Has a Green Card = Has Legal Status

Uh, that they have a Green Card says that they do follow the rules since those are not that easy to come by.
But let’s not let the facts get in the way of immigrant bashing.

The agency that oversees training and hiring standards for police departments in Maryland is looking at a proposal that would let noncitizens with green cards become police officers. If you have a green card, you are here legally. Or is every immigrant an illegal in your book?

Green card fraud is rampant. Look up Nada Nadim Prouty. Her sister was also found guilty. One was a CIA/FBI agent, ( in reality, a Hezbollah spy) the other was an officer in the USMC.

It is rather difficult to "overstay" one's "now-expired green card," considering that (a) green cards (or, as they are more properly called, Permanent Resident cards) are issued to
permanent residents, expire only after 10 years (which is a rather long time, considering that permanent residents are allowed to apply for citizenship after 5 years), and are essentially automatically renewed, provided that the individual maintains US residency.
We're not talking about illegal immigrants here, we're talking about legal immigrants who are well along the path to US citizenship.

This requires a CWII ping.
When the invaders become the police, the war is coming fast.
