Let’s just deport them back to Mexico ASAP. Don’t let them serve out their sentences, just kick ‘em across the border. Let Mexico deal with them since they don’t seem to like our death penalty, soverignty, and our Court System.

It’s 43 years too late - 1965 was the turning point, not 1986. The poison pill was ingested and we’re seeing the results - demographics is destiny.

They will just come back. Hopefully they will be taken down to the Guatemala end of Mexico to be released.

Why go to the expense of deporting them? They will all be back in 30 days to get arrested again for crimes.

If any are deported early they should face jail if they return as terms of their parole.
But this is just a no brainer. The fact that this has not been done is an impeachable offense by all involved.
I often wonder why we shouldn’t have a special prosecutor appointed to investigate public officials who ignored laws and allowed the illegal situation to get out of hand.
There were decisions to cut enforcement, their were decisions to not deport,,we need to know who made those decisions and if they can be prosecuted.

I challenge Homeland Security to create an account allowing Americans to donate $$$ to pay for the deportation. I guarantee they will have so much money, they won’t know what to do with it all.

I still like a variation of the Sheriff Joe approach.

Put them in work camps on the border, building the fence and cleaning up the mountains of trash and feces. With complete freedom to walk off the job in a southerly direction any time they please.

Give ‘em felony convictions with a suspended sentence. Then, if they come back in, it will be as a convicted felon. Then give ‘em 10 years, no parole! If they come back a third time, 20 years, no parole.

Otherwise, impose THEIR country’s laws for illegal immigration on them.

“They will all be back in 30 days “

It would make more sense to patch the holes, rather than keep bailing the basement with a colander, while hoping it doesn’t rain again . . . but all the frenzied activity allows the sheep-critters and trail boss to say early next year: “Hey, we tried. Really hard: We told you we need comprehensive immigration reform (amnesty).”
Problemo solved. Sort of. Except the costs, of course, in absorbing 20 million new citizens.
Oh, and the half-dozen or so new “undocumented immigrants” who will replace each current `immigrant’. And they will then also begin patiently waiting, at first, for their chance at the citizenship brass ring.

''Deportation is not punishment. We are adamantly opposed to removing people prior to their serving their sentence, because it's basically early release," Collier said. ''And once they deport them, they'll be right back in this country."

I suspect that it is way cheaper to deport them than it is to support them while incarcerated. And securing the borders will fix the "return" problem, and is a good and sufficient reasot TO secure the border.

Mexico Complains Of Too Many Repatriated Mexicans
Judicial Watch | 4-7-08
FR Posted 04/09/2008 by kingattax

The U.S. border state leading the battle against illegal immigration with unprecedented tough laws has received complaints from Mexico’s government that too many Mexicans have been repatriated and the country is overwhelmed with demands for housing, jobs and schools.

Fed up with the devastating effect of illegal immigration, Arizona has enacted the nation’s toughest laws to curb the problem and evidently its working. State legislators have passed laws barring illegal immigrants from receiving government services, posting bail for serious crimes and winning punitive damages in lawsuits. This year a new law makes it illegal for businesses to hire undocumented workers and those that do can be shut down.

The state legislator who sponsored the work bill, Representative Russell Pearce, says the law’s undeniably positive effects include smaller class sizes, shorter emergency room waits and an overall huge savings to taxpayers. The Republican congressman drafted the bill because studies revealed that illegal immigration cost Arizona taxpayers over $2 billion annually, not including the toll of crime and destruction.

It turns out that enough illegal immigrants have either fled the U.S. or been deported that officials in the Mexican state of Sonora, which shares an extensive border with Arizona, have complained that too many of their fellow countrymen have returned. They miss the remittances sent from the U.S. as well as smaller class sizes in local schools.

Mexican government officials knew Arizona’s tough employment verification law would become their worst nightmare, which explains why they tried blocking it. Earlier this year a delegation of nine legislators from Sonora toured Tucson and held a news conference to say that their beloved state cannot handle the demand for housing, jobs and schools resulting from illegal Mexican workers returning home.

One baffled Mexican legislator, Leticia Amparano Gamez, asked in Spanish “how can they pass a law like this?” She went on to explain that Mexico is not prepared for the “tremendous problems” it will face as more and more Mexicans working in Arizona and sending money to their families return to hometowns in Sonora without jobs. Another member of the Mexican delegation, Representative Florencio Diaz Armenta, asked “what do we do with the repatriated?”

The U.S. Homeland Security department has launched an ambitious nationwide effort that would cost $2 billion to $3 billion a year to identify and deport the estimated 300,000 to 450,000 illegal immigrants locked up each year in jails and prisons.

Notice the first thing they bring up is the supposed "huge" price tag for the program.

Pinkerton, you idiot, how much is it currently costing us to incarcerate these felons? My calculations are under $6700 per inmate deported, using the top figures quoted. I know we spend more than that to incarcerate people.
