You are right on some, but there can be a stronger hand. First of all, follow the Arizona law. Second, any illegals arrested for a crime has got to go. Third, focused infiltration of gangs especially MS-13. Fourth, federal prosecution of state officials who fail to enforce federal laws. This can be done and help bring order back to our society. Heat alone will help stem a lot of the problem. The problem is that the federal gov’t and presidents of both parties have ceded US sovereignty in California especially and have invited and encouraged the problem to grow.
I agree you can fold these into my points and it would get much support. Securing the border, then deporting the “bad guys” will get the illegal immigration talk started. Deport them all is a non-starter.

Wait!! “FEDERAL prosecution of STATE officials that fail to enforce Federal Laws...”
Are you freaking JOKING?! Right now we’ve got STATES trying to ENFORCE the Federal Laws and the stinking FEDS are SUING the STATES!!!
How about let the STATES that ARE enforcing the Federal Laws PROSECUTE the Federal OFFICIALS for BREAKING both the State AND Federal Laws!?
How about a new policy where the States that refuse to strictly enforce federal immigration laws receive ZERO Federal dollars UNTIL such time as they COMPLY? (I confess, I have a dual purpose in this one — I WANT to dump welfare States like CA, IL, NY and others OFF the Federal Dole)
Don’t punish the States — or ALL the States — for the screw-ups of some. And don’t blame them for what the FEDS have caused.
