Panic and terror is said to be running through immigrant communities
****************************
Blatant lie.
We have immigrants right here on Free Republic who are not only not concerned but are cheering these moves on, because the people targeted are not immigrants, but illegal aliens.
Illegal aliens have always been subject to deportation, we just did not have a President willing to enforce the laws.
Starting with the illegal aliens already convicted of other crimes is smart, but we should deport ANY illegal alien we come across. We must not be satisfied with only deporting the criminals, there are NO “otherwise law-abiding” illegal aliens. In order to remain here illegally, they MUST commit other crimes.
Illegal employment and document fraud are the least of these.
Waiting until they harm of kill Americans is irresponsible policy.
You are correct. And it needs to be said more often. The legal immigrant community is not panicked over these moves.
