Atlanta is fast becoming Laredo II. There is hardly a work place in Atlanta and the surrounding area that isn't full of illegals.

Putting any criminal in jail, or deporting them, splits families and breaks homes, separating kids from parents.

Bank robbers, crack dealers, child pornographers all have family and friends, too, so why does the press focus on the hardships of criminal aliens and not other criminals?

There is a clear message here- if you want a stable family, to see your spouse/SO/kids daily, don't break the law.

If you are here as a legal immigrant... Welcome brothers and sisters... if you are here illegally... GET THE HELL OUT OF MY COUNTRY!

The kids weren't able to immediately join her because she and her husband hadn't gotten passports for them.

Sounds like mom didn't have a passport either. After all, if she were here legally she wouldn't have been deported.

It is a shame that criminals get more compassion than their victims.

Each of these "undocumented migrants" are illegal aliens. They are criminals. They entered this country, violated its sovereignty, without permission and outside the law.

The "advocates" and "social workers" who are aiding and abetting these criminals should also be expelled from this country and their citizenship withdrawn.

Funny how the article mentions children with Downs Syndrome. You’d think the libs would have had the illegals kill those children before they were born.

If Atlanta is fast becoming Laredo II, then the Greater Kansas City area is beginning to look like any border town’s Walmart parking lot.

Inattention to our borders has let this spread to much of the heartland.

I was at a business in Lancaster Pa. last week, a van pulled up with five black people in it, blasting Mexican music. I ask one of them a question and then found they were all black Mexicans, none could speak English.

Correct me if I am wrong, but beginning in October, can’t the state confiscate the criminal alien’s vehicle?

Chances are they were NOT Mexicans but other Central or SA illegals.

“A 42-year-old stay-at-home mom from Mexico who lives in the Atlanta area, Gonzalez said she and her construction worker husband have been even more nervous since a man her husband works with was arrested and deported two months ago. The couple, who entered the U.S. illegally and have lived here for 17 years, have been trying to make sure they have all of his papers in order, including records of U.S. taxes he’s paid on his income. But she said they don’t yet have passports for all of their six children, four of whom are American-born.”

All the ridiculous, entangled circumstances that exist in that paragraph perfectly illustrate what a pathetic job our government has done (deliberately) in border enforcement and immigration law in general.

If there were any real justice in this situation, all the presidents and legislators and bureaucrats who allowed our immigration system to become the fiasco it now is would spend some time behind bars. They failed miserably, or were deliberately negligent in fulfilling this responsibility.

If it’s that big a deal, they should’ve taken their kids with them.

Real sad is that illegal aliens take away jobs and services for legal immigrants.

No one seems to give a hoot for legal immigrants...who pay the fees and wait and wait to do things legally...yet all the sympathy is directed at the illegal lawbreakers.

Of course, its been stated many times, the affect on American citizens from illegal alienism
