Another question. Are you prepared to have the federal government do house by house searches in every town in this nation looking for illegals and loading them on trains?
And if they decide after having lived and worked here for the past 6 or 8 years that they won't go peacefully, how far are you prepared to go to get your point across?
If you want to accomplish something, then change the law bestowing citizenship on the progeny of illegals born here. Until you do that, your whistling in the wind.
An excellent suggestion, I'm glad you brought it up....
Illegal Aliens who have children that are born in America rarely, if ever, get deported--though to my knowledge they "technically" can be deported under the law. Could this be why they call them Anchor Babies? The thrust of 245I does not focus on this as much as the cases where Illegal Aliens leave their families in Mexico (or wherever) to come to America, often illegally.
Bottom line: I am against any legislation that rewards illegal aliens for breaking our laws and encourages millions more to do likewise. I don't want to see America turn into a Banana Republic because our government doesn't have the courage to protect its sovereignty or borders.

Oh another Straw Man argument. How unusual. Do you honestly believe there is only ONE solution to combating illegal immigration? To answer your LOADED question--“No” and the vast majority of people that want to see illegal immigration curbed in this country don’t advocate this approach either. Like MOST problems in life there are a myriad of ways to solve the crisis of illegal immigration and the reality is that it will take years to accomplish.
What are my ideas on rolling back illegal immigration?
1) The first order of business is to seal the borders with the help of the military. What’s the military for if not to protect our country from foreign invasion?
2) Instruct law enforcement departments throughout the country that they are to detain and hand over to the INS all aliens here illegally as they find them in the course of their work. If the INS doesn’t have the current manpower for this, then increase their budget until they do.
3) Fire Ziglar and replace him with an effective manager who does not have any open conflicts about executing the duties of the job.
4) Perhaps the most effective remedy is to actually enforce the unenforced laws on illegal immigration and levy stiff fines on businesses that hire illegal aliens to the fullest extent of the law. If the current law is not enough of a deterrent then change the law to make it uneconomical for businesses to hire illegals.
5) Fix the 14th amendment loophole so that there is NO incentive for border hopping Hispanics to run to the nearest American hospital to deliver their anchor baby and get on America’s gravy train of welfare.
And if they decide after having lived and worked here for the past 6 or 8 years that they won't go peacefully, how far are you prepared to go to get your point across?
No doubt there will always be those who refuse to recognize the authority of our laws and that’s what we have the INS for. If an alien refuses to leave peacefully when ordered then the only other alternative is force. Just like if I lived in France for 8 years illegally and one day their immigration authorities finally catch up with me and tell me to leave and I turn around and tell them I am going to stay regardless of their laws. Well, what would a reasonable person expect their government to do? And if the law isn’t applied uniformly and all it takes is a little stubbornness to suppress the law may I ask “What Good Is The Law?

As previously indicated, I think closing the loophole in Amendment 14 is critical to controlling illegal immigration.
Until you do that, your whistling in the wind.
I agree.
Many robbers, rapists, murderers, and drug dealers also happen to be parents. We don't let them out of jail just because there's nobody to support their kids. If someone breaks the law, they have to pay the penalty. Otherwise, illegals are holding us for ransom, saying, "You HAVE to let us stay here now because of our kids." Yes, it sounds cruel, but if we get tough, we remove the magnet that draws illegals here. Then, there will be fewer illegals coming here and having those anchor babies in the first place.
Another question. Are you prepared to have the federal government do house by house searches in every town in this nation looking for illegals and loading them on trains?
We won't have to. Remove the magnets and the benefits, properly punish the employers who are illegally hiring them, and many will deport themselves. The others we deport as we uncover them.
And if they decide after having lived and worked here for the past 6 or 8 years that they won't go peacefully, how far are you prepared to go to get your point across?
What if a rapist, murderer, bank robber, or drug dealer decides he "won't go peacefully"? Lawbreakers are lawbreakers. You pursue them, arrest them, whatever you have to do!
If you want to accomplish something, then change the law bestowing citizenship on the progeny of illegals born here. Until you do that, your whistling in the wind.
EXCELLENT idea. I only wish that would happen.
