RCP ^ | 1/10/16 | RCP

Posted on 01/10/2016 6:31:22 AM PST by jimbo123

Creating a contrast with Donald Trump, Sen. Ted Cruz ruled out the use of a new federal "deportation force" to seek and deport illegal immigrants.

-snip-

JAKE TAPPER: I don't mean to sound disrespectful, but it is a simple question, yes or no. Will you have people going door to door rounding people up?

TED CRUZ: We don't have any system that knocks door to door every person in America, that is not how the American law enforcement system works... We don't live in a police state. We do have law enforcement, how do we catch people? We catch them through things ike E-verify, we catch them through things like the criminal law enforcment system.

“We don’t have any system that knocks door to door”

"Actually, I *WANT* a force that KNOCKS, door to door."

Knock on MY door without a search warrant and start asking a bunch of questions? You'll get a door in your face.

If you're pleasant. If you're unpleasant you may get worse.

Nothing but an army of 100,000 officers could accomplish what Trump offers off the cuff.

What other way could there be? (other than Cruz’ way)

Doesn't anyone care about the Fourth Amendment? FR used to be a bastion of conservatism. Where have they all gone?

BRAVO! Presumed innocence... Probable cause... Warrants...

Anybody see a problem here?

Wake up Max.

They never ever went door to door.

The system encountered them through contacts such as arrests. After they are thus identified then the effort is made to pick them up in their known locations.

This is what Cruz has been saying for several years.

Prosecuting employers, like Trump, is the way to rid the country of these lice.

There weren’t very many in the ‘50s, and they had not infiltrated the cities.

Cruz did say that as the field narrowed he would be drawing more defined distinctions regarding the other candidates.....

"We Don't Live In A Police State"

Pretty much what Angela Merkel would have said on December 30th, 2015.

So, Ted, wait until the lame duck goes full-bore civilizational jihad on our azzes -- in 5... 4... 3...

May wish to re-read my post; I indicated they knock to ASK a simple question; no more, no less.

Giving the 3rd degree? No, I would be in the ‘mood’ to assist either.

IMO, the easiest/best solution is to offer a bounty per head ($25??), paid upon pick-up/arrest. Open season, 365 :)
