I guess we lived in a police state back in the 1950’s - when we rounded up all the Wetbacks and sent them home.
Going “door to door” would most likely entail violating citizens rights of freedom from illegal search and seizure. I believe in deporting illegals, I believe those who have violated laws should not get to come back and coming here illegally is a violation of our law. I also believe this should be done legally without violating citizens rights. There should be no searches without warrants. When illegals are exposed by anything from e-verify to a traffic stop or government agency they should be arrested and deported. Where there is just cause a search a warrant should be issued and our Constitution followed. We don’t need any more “agencies”, we have more than enough now, follow the law, do the job.
A “Deportation Force” would be like TSA or e-Verify: It would be used against normal US citizens.
How many times have you seen Muslim TSA agents screening regular Americans? I see it all the time.
They need to build a wall, turn off the incentives (welfare, anchor babies, etc), and end catch & release. That will effectively deport 30 million illegals while leaving us alone.
The problem is that the Supreme Court would likely block mass deportation.
Our founding fathers are spinning in their graves. I think Cruz, being a strict Constitutionalist, is better prepared to enforce our rights and rule of law. And he will work to end the political correctness which has infected our society and Criminal Justice system. I think Trump will too, although I’m not convinced he is as strict as Cruz. Anyway, we don’t need Trump and Cruz to be putting each other down and nitpicking over the same ideas.
The question that should be asked is: Do illegals have any rights under our Constitution and rule of law. I say NO! Only citizens have rights. (Further more, is any one citizen above the law. Again I say NO! The same rights should be afforded to all citizens.)
The current administration says otherwise and fails to enforce our existing laws when they do not agree with them. In addition, they have established their new laws by bypassing the legislative process. As a result and through political correctness and special interests we have allowed our government to put the rights of non-citizens and special interests above those of it’s own citizens. This is wrong and needs to end. (Hopefully without a civil war.)
When people enter without invitation, they should be treated as illegal invaders, not citizens, and deported or charged with crimes if they have violated our laws. They certainly should have no right to expect welfare, medical assistance, or other benefits reserved for our citizens. Bottom line: They have no standing or right to question our rule of law nor expect to be afforded the same rights as citizens.
When the invaders and their attorneys learn they have no legal rights in our justice system, they will apply to enter on our terms, not theirs. For those that are caught without invitation, I would like to see Cruz or Trump enforcing the immigration laws before building a bigger fence. I would like to see our electorate represent us, the American citizen, for a change. We have rights too, you know.
Clean out the illegals & start like this:
1. Western Union outlet locations. They are there sending cash back south of the border.
2. The border itself
3. Welfare rolls in every state
4. DMV in every state. They are issuing licenses!!!
5. School enrollment records. We are hiring ESL teachers because of these illegal children!!!
6. Jails & prisons
7. Hospital records—especially emergency & obstetrics
8. Find all the people who have ‘overstayed’ their visas.
9. Demand the information from the Social Security Administration of ALL the ‘non-matches they have on records. MOST of those are illegals. (BTW- Obama is using a SS number that doesn’t pass the E-Verify system)
These are 9 easy places to start finding the illegals. Round them up—send them back. I am ALMOST in favor of chipping them so we can scan them like a lost dog & tell that they are violating again by returning to the USA. ALMOST———
The drain on the American taxpayer has got to stop.
Truman & Eisenhower sent back over 11 million illegals after WWII. I think there are close to 55 million illegals here now.
Actually, I think there is a direct relationship with undocumented immigration and the rise of the police state. The more that come in, the more police state. It’s not the other way around.
Cruz did say that as the field narrowed he would be drawing more defined distinctions regarding the other candidates.....
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...
