And not one realistic solution is offered.
And not one realistic solution is offered.
I've heard this one before.
Reminds me of the Death Row lawyer who runs out of appeals and then claims execution after 15 years is "cruel and unusual."
Not to mention the implied false dilemma, "If we can't deport them all, then we can't do anything.
BTW, did you notice you offered "not one realistic solution?"
Doesn't matter, because I have offered a realistic partial solution here...
They Will
Deport Themsleves
It begins with total asset forfeiture for apprehended illegals.
Any "realistic solution" without deportation is at minimum a de facto Amnesty for illegals.
Here are two possibilities:
1.) Seal the borders, not just talk about it like they've been doing for the last 20 years, but do it, with the military if necessary.
2.) Deputize every police agency in the country to assist the INS in arresting illegal aliens. When any of them come upon illegals, the INS WILL respond, pick them up and deport them. Even now, they will tell police who do arrest illegals to let them go half the time. What kind of enforcement agency is that?
If the country is that desperate for low wage workers, then we can have some limited guest worker program. One that isn't just a backdoor immigration program where they have kids here then never go back. That means a simple rewrite of the Fourteenth Amendment that may not even have to be ratified, if they just change the "jurisdiction" meaning into law.
The status-quo is a disaster. We won't survive as a country at this rate.
