They should be locked up then thrown out of the country. repeat offenders should be dropped from planes.

[Vision]

Then stop breaking the law?

[PGR88]

They’d clearly be happier in their home countries

[SkyDancer]

Good. Make their country look better and go back.

[kalee]

Easy solution GO HOME!

I guess if I committed a crime by illegally entering a country I’d probably be a little nervous myself.

Try doing something illegal in Mexico (like say having a round of ammunition in your car) and see how nervous you get.

[metmom]

Fine.

Then they can leave and not have to deal with it any more.

Then I’ll be waiting for ICE to get me!!

Took that once. A long time ago before it was very popular.

Kicked me like a mule and i’m a big guy.

It didn’t chill me out. Almost made my heart rip through my shirt.

That was the one time I used a non script drug besides smoking pot, and even that was maybe a dozen times in my whole life.

I liked booze early on :)

[a fool in paradise]

USA Ptooey has spoken.

[depressed in 06]

The correct term is Illegal Invader.

A much better term for what they are doing.

[Lurkinanloomin]

GO HOME!

No more stress and anxiety.

[upchuck]

Endless fear.

Good! I love excellent news. Just have your nervous breakdown on YOUR side of the border so we don’t have to pay for it.

Illegal immigrants are suffering under Trump? Do I even really need to go read this?

I hope they sink and return home.

I deliver to construction sites everyday. Easily 90% of the workers at each site are Hispanic. There is NO WAY all of these idiots are LEGAL and there is NO WAY these are jobs Americans WON’T DO!

We need legislation that really puts the screws to employers that hire illegals. Like tens of thousands of dollars fine for each illegal found to be working in the US.

The fear would end if they went back to their country of origin.

[Drango]

I have a cure.

[The Pack Knight]

Yes, America is a horrible, fundamentally racist country just like Beta says. I think undocumented people should escape to a less racist country at the earliest opportunity.

[Texas Eagle]

What about legal immigrants? What is their emotional status under President Trump?

[posterchild]

Trump’s stance on immigration became apparent early on in his campaign when he promised to build a wall on Mexico’s dime, called immigrants animals, rapists and “bad hombres” and vowed to end DACA, a deportation deferral permit for those who were brought to the U.S. as children during a certain time period.

It is hard to take a journalist seriously when they repeat this 'rapist' false slander.

[Bigg Red]

No, please don’t tell us about how upset they are. I might haz a sad.
