GAINESVILLE, Mo. -- Its a hot button issue in the Ozarks and nation. Illegal immigration has some asking, 'is enough being done.'

KY3 found answering the simple question of 'who can be arrested?' is complicated.
"Imagine my head hurting," Ozark County Sheriff Raymond Pace said. "I had five right off the border, still had pesos, looking for a Bank of America to cash in their pesos and get American dollars."

but-—you know the constraints placed on ICE, INS, DHS, Border Patrol are not the doing of the current administration. This is a MAJOR problem in this country, but our leadership refuses to deal with it. GW was just as bad about fostering illegal immigration as the present Doofus in Chief.

Federal authorities wish to do away with local cops enforcing our nation's immigration laws.
A federal grand jury in Arizona began hearing a federal prosecutors allegations that the popular Maricopa County sheriff, Joe Arpaio abused his authority

Don’t rule out the tar and feathers. I’m about ready.
Obama and Janet belong in jail, not Joe.
>>Obama and Janet belong in jail, not Joe.<<
Amen to that.
Ozark County Sheriff Raymond Pace
Oh the memories, it was Sheriff Buff Lamb when I used to run around there. Those illegals can count their blessings it wasn’t him or any of his deputies that caught em! He woulda let em go alright!
On the serious side, with all the PC crap today, Buff would never have made it.
