It’s a moot point regardless. There will be NO mass deportations and nobody is going to declare “Listen, your dad is an illegal, therefore all you American high school kids and wife have to pack up and go back to Mexico. I don’t care if you don’t speak Spanish, shut up and get in the truck. And quit texting.”
Conservatives who base their vote on deportation are living in fantasyland.
You’re whistling past the graveyard.
Appeasement always fails.
Simply adopt the immigration policies of Mexico, and that is the end of that.
I agree. We do not have the means to physically deport 12 million aliens. But we do have the means to legislate so they will self deport.Arizona which runs over half the nation’s e verify checks has found the system successful in having many self deport. A national e verification policy will go a long way in having many self deport.The question is would Newt be making an e verify exception for illegals here over 25 years.
Something everyone on this thread seems ro have forgotten is that illegals come in all flavors. magritte, if osama bin laden had come here illegally 25 years ago with one of his trusty pregnant brides who gave birth here....
If congress would get their butts in gear nd end this anchor baby crap, a LOT of this problem would stop being a problem.
If Congress would get its butt in gear and mandate that ENGLISH is the law of the land, more of the problem would be solved. No more welfare forms in 19 different languages. Can’t speak, read, and write English, no job, no license, no vote, no school, no nothing.
I do not want to pick up the phone and call an AMERICAN company and be told to press 1 for English or 2 for Spanish. I do not want my tax payer dollars paying for translators for illegal felons who can’t speak English. If they are not American citizens, why are they entitled to OUR Constitutional rights? I don’t care what country they are from either. If they want a “fair” trial, make their HOME country pay for it. If they MUST be incarcerated here, let their own country pay for that too...and if they won’t, send the damn criminals to jail until they learn English, then try them. If they are terrorists, go straight to Gitmo, do not pass go. If you are an American citizen and you commit a terrorist act against this country, automatic loss of citizenship.
There are a lot of things we can do besides these.
