I agree. If these kids are getting high grades and going to college, why stop them? It's not their fault their parents came here illegally.

And, frankly, I'm against anchor babies, so I'm actually pretty strict on illegal immigration, but if these kids have spent their whole lives here, no one is going to kick them out. It's just not gonna' happen. No way. Does anyone here really think they're going to get kicked out? In your dreams...

They need good educations. Let them pay a lot of taxes, and not be a drain on the system! LOL

Well, you're really not against anchor babies. You support a policy that encourages more illegal immigrants to have anchor babies.

You want fewer anchor babies? Take away the incentives.

Yes, these kids do get kicked out and sent back to their home countries. Because they are illegal for so long, there is no legal mechanism to keep them here. They are considered gross violators of immigration law, therefor are of poor moral charcter and barred from ever entering the U.S. again. Immigration judges tend to make examples of these people to highlight problems with the immigration system. Also, there is no way to prove when they entered the U.S. I agree that mercy, to some degree, needs to be shown to these kids, but there is no mechanism unless one is enacted by Congress.
