The proponents of amnesty are wont to create the false choice between a blanket amnesty and mass deportation of 12 to 20 million illegal aliens. In reality, we have other choices and alternatives that don’t reward people who have broken our laws with the right to stay and work here and an eventual path to citizenship. The 12 to 20 million illegal aliens did not enter this country overnight and they will not leave overnight.

Attrition through enforcement works. We have empirical data from Georgia, Oklahoma, and Arizona proving that it does. During the 2006 amnesty debate, the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) commissioned a Zogby poll offering respondents not the false choice between mass deportation or amnesty (a word CIS did not use in the survey), but rather a three-way choice between mass deportation, earned legalization, and attrition — and attrition was preferred two-to-one over legalization.

My research shows me that FEMA already has the rail cars equipped with shackles, and the necessary camps ready and waiting to do the job, with the help of several national guards.

Any such approach would be a public relations disaster. It would be compared to the Holocaust. And it is just a stupid idea.

You missed the point. Did you read the article cited>

All Eisenhower did was deport 80, 000, and the rest pulled up stakes and high tailed it back across the border.

I’d say of we deported a million or so, most of the rest would simply go home.

And why should it be regarded as “The Holocaust?”The Mexican government has a publicly stated “Reconquista” policy. By deporting and forcing them to leave,we would be avoiding a future war within our own borders. And that is a looming issue for Texas, Arizona and New Mexico.
