Former hotels, nursing homes and other sites would be used to hold nonviolent, non-criminal immigrants as part of a larger plan to reform immigration detention, according to documents obtained Monday by The Associated Press. The alternative sites are intended to cut the costs of detaining immigrants, which reached nearly $2 billion in 2008.

Here is how they are going to do it. Illegals will now be classified according to danger, and housed based on that rating. Obviously, 99.9999% will fall under the 'safe' category and will receive a nice hotel stay before being released.

Obviously, 99.9999% will fall under the 'safe' category and will receive a nice hotel stay before being released.

And 99.9999% of those will "check out" early and disappear back into the population, just as illegals always do. They can't possible secure old hotels without turning them into jails, and they have no intention of doing that. These would just be halfway houses back to living illegally in America (probably exactly what is intended).

Heck, they will want to be checked in...They can continue to work and live for free, including food and medicine. Doesn’t get much better than a sweet deal like this.

A modest proposal for dealing with foreign nationals found to be in this country illegally:

1) Confiscate whatever assets they have in the US.

2) Put them to work for two years building the southern border wall.

3) Once they have completed their labor, deport them immediately — after first tattooing their foreheads with the words “Property of Mexico (or wherever they came from).”

So... how much am I being billed to put these holiday-makers up in America’s resort communities?

Free room and board, with clean sheets and health insurance seems like a pretty good deal - this is the sort of “punishment” most LEGAL Americans would love to have for themselves, if they could only afford it. They can’t - they’re too strapped paying taxes to furnish the funds for these other folks to keep Livin’ Large.

Once upon a time, some idiot somewhere coined the phrase, “Crime doesn’t pay.” Clearly, he knew nothing about the United States government.

Not if there is a real possibility of deportation.

Even CNN is asking if this is a way for Obama to let illegals escape deportation.
