The border is too long to stop them coming in -- the only solution is to arrest and deport those who are aprehended without papers. But first we have to give the limited number allowed tostay some papers......

I don't see it that way.

The solution, in large part, is self-deportation of Illegal Aliens.

I've read your referenced posts, and am not convinced. Asset forfeiture is an extreme step, and a slippery slope, indeed, likely to be abused. I'm against most of the current laws/actions in that area. Moreover, few of these illegals have much in the way of assets -- their earnings are modest and they send it back to Mexico quite regularly.

Your approach leads to a modest proposal: Why not hang captured illegals? -- that would self-deport them, even more quickly.</sarcasm
