If the Federal Government isn't doing its job, do the states have any rights?

Maybe they need their own border patrol to keep illegals out of their states. I think though we need to insist on the federal government doing it's job and local law enforcements can assist when they happen to encounter an illegal breaking the law.

Everything else gets too complicated. If you have citizens involved in stopping illegals, they're going to make mistakes. Same thing with local law enforcement, they shouldn't look for illegals but keep looking for other types of law breakers and call the proper agency when one of those is an illegal.
