If police in Austin start rousting all the illegal immigrants, guess how much help they are going to get for info on murders, rapes, etc... from illegal eyewitnesses.
You could use that same reasoning to rationalize not rousting known car thieves or burglars or con artists in the general population because some day they may be able to provide information on a more serious crime committed by another criminal.
