No you dumb ... The idea of allowing people to break our laws with impunity and no fear of reprisal is absurd. Why bother having laws? Oh, only certain laws should be enforced? Who gets to pick, some despot/ruler? Now there is a genuinely un-American idea. Seems we fought a couple of wars to get out from under that system and stay out.
No need AT ALL to “track them down and deport them”.
Just remove all government benefits for those here illegally and deport the ones that have encounters with law enforcement.
You’ll cut the number by 3/4 within a year or two.
